The certification of podcasts

Podcast Audit Content

As a competent currency-issuing institution with decades of experience, WEMF's podcast certification offers the advertising market greater transparency through fair and verified figures in the audio sector too. 

The certification enables comparable and reliable download figures for podcasts in Switzerland. This enables media companies and podcast producers to prove to their advertising customers that their published download figures are officially authenticated.

The data is published once a month in the NEXT>LEVEL tool.
