How to update or edit your podcast on Deezer
Our system checks podcast feeds for updates every day, so you don't need to do anything else once submitted. Deezer takes up to 24 hours to show new episodes once you add them to your RSS feed.
Warning: Deezer now handles feed redirection, in accordance with iTunes specifications. If your hosting platform does not allow feed redirection, you’ll need to request to update it by contacting support@deezer.com
Note: If a podcast hasn't released any new episodes in 180 days, we stop checking its RSS feed
Audience analytics
Deezer doesn’t re-host and direct stream. Therefore, you’ll be able to see your Deezer stats amongst other platforms in your usual dashboards. The Deezer for Creators app gives an instant overview of your podcast's performance to help grow your listener base.
If you have uploaded your podcast directly to Deezer without using a hosting platform, and after 24 hours, you still don't see your new episode, contact our support team with the following details:
- Your podcast page link
- Any changes made to your RSS feed
- Your latest and previous episode release dates
- The date of your last episode. If this was longer than 180 days ago, our support team will need to know
If you have uploaded your podcast using a hosting platform, you must contact them directly if you cannot see your podcast on Deezer.
