Simple English News Daily (SEND7) joins Supercast

Simple English News Daily (SEND7) has moved its subscription service to Supercast.

Until now, subscriptions were based on the SEND7 website, and were mostly focused on English-learning materials, like vocabulary lists, worksheets and quizzes.

By joining Supercast, SEND7 is now able to give ad-free episodes and bonus episodes, on top of what subscribers were already receiving. The premium feed is purple instead of green.

Last month, SEND7 had 380 subscribers, most of whom pay €7 per month. Half of them have already moved to Supercast after we announced the change to them recently.
