Do you offer agency or multi-site licensing?

Two different questions tend to arrive in the same sentence, so here are both answers.

Licensing: no. Agency licensing — where you hold a license and activate Benecaster on sites owned by your clients — is not available, and Multi-Show and Studio don’t cover client shows either. Every show under one license must be a podcast operation run by the license holder. Each client needs their own license, purchased by or for that client under their own benecaster.com account. Benecaster’s model is built around the podcast operator owning the subscriber relationship, and sub-licensing undermines that for both of you.

Building on it for a client: yes, and further than most plugins allow. Nothing about the licensing rule limits what you can build. Benecaster exposes over 270 hooks and filters, and its admin is extensible from your own companion plugin — you can add steps to the setup wizard, add settings pages and sections, add dashboard cards, and add tabs to the episode and show editors. A specialized setup for a client’s install is an ordinary plugin, and it stays yours. See Can I customize Benecaster for a client? for what that surface covers and where it stops.

One practical note on handover, because it surprises people. There is no license key to paste in — the plugin connects to benecaster.com through a browser sign-in, so activation happens under whichever account is signed in at that moment. Have your client create their account and buy the license first, then either do the connect step together or leave it as the one button they click at handover. That single step is what makes the license theirs, and it means you never need their password.

Purchasing under the client’s account is the point, not a formality: they own the license, the subscriber data, and the feed infrastructure independently of your engagement, which is also what protects you when the engagement ends.
