Campaign limitations by plan

Things to note:

A campaign can only be assigned to one podcast (show), not across multiple podcasts.

Campaigns will only be stitched to audio episodes. Video episodes are not supported and will be skipped.

Once a campaign ends, your RSS feed and Castos Players will revert back to using your original episode files unless a new campaign was scheduled to begin.

The Essentials plan is limited to one active campaign and cannot schedule campaigns.

Growth and Pro plans can have one active campaign per podcast in the account and schedule up to the plan limit per podcast. For example, Growth users can have a "Q1 Promo" active and then schedule a Q2, Q3, and Q4 promo.

Trial accounts cannot set an End Date past the trial expiration date.
