Cloud plus Internet Radio Stream Hosting
Upgrade from Free
Unlock the full power of Your Free Plan service
More listeners. Higher bitrate. Real-time features. No advertisements. $34/mo — upgrade from your free Caster.fm station in minutes.
When your station is ready for more than the free tier
The permanent free plan gives you everything you need to start: 400 listener slots, 96 Kbps streaming on Icecast 2.5, a full radio website CMS, and no credit card required — it’s how we’ve helped thousands of broadcasters get on air since 2010.
But if your audience is growing and you’re hitting limits, Cloud Plus removes the ceiling.
You stay on the same Icecast 2.5 infrastructure. You keep your station, your settings, your website. Everything lifts: more listeners, higher audio quality, real-time features for your audience, and a cleaner experience with zero ads on your radio website. No migration. No downtime. Just an upgrade.
