Podcast Advertising Rates

Pricing of podcast ads simply comes down to the amount of downloads/impressions the podcast receives in the first 30 days and the CPM rate. What does CPM mean? CPM stands for Cost Per Mille (latin for 1,000) or in our case the cost you pay per 1,000 downloads (listens) of your podcast.
The overall average rate for baked-in podcast host read ads are:
60 second spots: $24-26 CPM
30 second spots: $18-22 CPM
To calculate how much you can charge for your ad spots, here's the quick equation:
Cost = Reach * CPM / 1000
Or you can always use our calculator tool.
Now when you expand outside of baked-in host read ads, CPMs can vary. We've put together this table to help you better understand CPM rates across many different types of podcast ad units.
Podcast Ad Unit Cost (CPMs) Description Placement Targeting Capabilities
Baked-In Host Read $24-$26 30 or 60 Second Host-Read. Ad stays in that particular episode forever. Pre or mid-roll spot on NEW episode Target a specific podcast and episode
Dynamic Episodic $18-$22 30 or 60 Second Host-Read or Pre-Produced Ad. Ad is dynamically inserted into the new episode. Pre or mid-roll spot on NEW episode Target a specific podcast and episode
Dynamic Full/Back Catalog $14-$16 30 or 60 Second Host-Read or Pre-Produced Ad. Ad is dynamically inserted into any episode within the entire catalog. Pre or mid-roll spot on ANY episode in catalog Target specific podcasts, time frame, or genre/category of shows
Programmatic $12-$15 30 or 60 Second Pre-Produced Ad. Ad is programmatically delivered in many different podcasts. Pre or mid-roll spot on ANY episode Target GEO (City, State, Zip, DMA, Lat/Long, POI) demographics, behavioral, time frames, etc
Then we went a step further on the second table to show CPM rates broken down by podcast genre/category. Note these are only for baked-in host read ads.

Health & Fitness $27
