Which one should you pick?
Pick Supercast if
You’re building around premium podcast subscriptions. Supercast charges a flat $0.59 per transaction instead of the percentage cut Patreon and Memberful take, which materially changes the unit economics on premium subscriptions.
Pick WeTransfer if
You’re building around occasional senders. WeTransfer used to be the universal file-transfer link — drop a 2GB file, send a link, done. The free tier got slashed (10 transfers and 3GB per 30 days, files expire in 3 days) and the old Pro plan is gone.
