In the event that you may need to cancel your account with Podbean, our Archive Plan gives you the opportunity to keep your content live and gives you access to your analytics for a flat yearly rate. You can preserve your podcast’s legacy with ongoing access to your live content. This is a great option for podcasters who may have to put a hold on publishing new content, but still want their podcast to be live and accessible on directories and for their current and growing audience. We offer two different Archive Plan options that apply depending on your account type. Please see the different options below:
