Posted on May 3, 2019
ENTREPRENEUR – May 2 – Podcoin is billed as the first app to reward podcast listeners for their time. The platform, which launched in January 2019, pays each user one "podcoin" for every 10 minutes spent listening. Users can cash out via gift cards to outlets like Amazon and Starbucks or use their earnings to make charitable donations. Over the past four months, Podcoin's usage has grown 15% week-over-week, according to CEO Geoff Cook, and reached 1M listening minutes per day.
