Renew your plan

Transfer your plan

Anyone with Admin access can manage the program membership. In the Accounts tab, under Details, click Manage and select Transfer. The current owner cannot transfer the program membership.

When the plan is moved to a new owner, the original owner receives a refund for the unused portion of the year. The new owner will be charged the annual fee and receive a new renewal date for the plan. A Legal user will need to complete additional information in the Agreements section of Apple Podcasts Connect.

Cancel your plan

Only the user whose Apple ID is associated with the plan can cancel it. From the Account Details page of Apple Podcasts Connect, click Manage, then Cancel Plan.

The plan remains active until the original expiration date. Another Admin can assume ownership of the plan from their Account Details page and reactivate the plan.
