FlatPlan is pleased to announce a new feature for digital publishers: the integration of Acast podcasts with Apple News. This addition offers a practical way for publishers using Acast for their podcasts to enrich their articles on Apple News with embedded audio content.
Acast is a renowned podcast platform that provides hosting, distribution and monetisation services for the likes of The Guardian, Economist, Financial Times and Tortoise. Known for its extensive library of podcasts across various genres, Acast enables creators to reach a wide audience and offers robust analytics and monetisation tools.
FlatPlan, the world's leading Apple News distribution service, now allows the embedding of Acast podcasts into Apple News articles. This integration caters to publishers who distribute their podcasts via Acast and wish to enhance their Apple News content with audio. These podcasts can either appear inline within existing articles, or as separate podcast promotion units across all Apple News articles.
No matter what stage you're at in your discovery of Apple News, we'll help you get the information you need to make the right decision for your media business.
