Frequently asked questions
Looking for more information? Here are some answers to frequently asked questions.
Can I get help?
Of course! You can contact the RadioKing team whenever you want via the Support tab in your Customer Area. We respond in less than 24 hours to each request (and most of the time in less than 3 hours).
You can also consult our numerous tutorials, our YouTube channel or get valuable tips to improve your radio from our blog.
Are technical skills required?
Absolutely not! We have developed RadioKing so that anyone can create their own radio on the Internet, without being a computer or radio pro.
In addition to that, we offer many tutorials to help you fully understand each of the features.
What happens when my demo period ends?
When the demo period ends you can continue your service by purchasing a subscription from this page.
Be careful not to wait too long as you have 20 days before your demo is permanently deleted.
If you do not wish to continue, you do not have to do anything and you will not be charged.
Can I add adverts?
You can show as many adverts as you want! We offer different tools for the mobile app and the website that allow you to integrate an ad network like Adwords or Admob. It is also possible to easily program your adverts in the Radio Manager.
Is the radio player included in my offer?
Yes, the radio player is included in all our offers (Start, Pro et Business).
Does my computer need to be turned on 24/7?
With the RadioKing Manager you don’t need to leave your computer on. The radios we host are on cloud servers and run 24 hours a day without any intervention on your end.
However, for customers who wish to do so, it’s also possible to broadcast via a 24-hour broadcasting software (useful for FM radios, for example).
What happens if I exceed my listening hours?
You can follow your consumption of listening hours at any time via your dashboard. We will notify you by email when you reach 80% and 90% of your monthly listening hours. It will then be possible to switch to a higher package in order to increase your listening hours.
If you reach 100% of your package, you will still be able to access your Manager but listeners will not be able to listen to your radio anymore.
It is also possible to increase your limit of listening hours. Please contact our support team.
Can I have multiple radios on the same account?
Yes, you can have multiple radio stations on the same account and easily switch from one radio to another directly from the Radio Manager.
Do you provide a music license?
To broadcast music subject to copyright, you must obtain authorization from the organizations responsible for regulating the works. RadioKing does not provide any rights for the broadcasting of musical works. We invite you to contact the relevant music licensing authority in the country that you are broadcasting from for more information. You may find this article helpful.
Do you offer the purchase of domain name?
Can I use my own domain name?
Of course! You can use your own domain (hosted on OVH, 1&1, GoDaddy, …). You just have to modify your DNS configuration to link the domain.
Here’s a guide that shows you how to easily link your domain name.
Can I remove the RadioKing mention at the bottom of the page?
The White Label is an option that we offer on the radio website (it allows you to remove the mention of “RadioKing” at the bottom of the page).
This feature is optional and is priced at €15/ $18/ £12 /month including VAT on top of your service subscription.
Can I modify my radio app after it’s been published?
Do I need a developer account?
Apple and Google’s usage policies do not allow us to publish your apps on our accounts. You must have an Apple developer account to publish your app on iOS and/or a Google Play developer account to publish your app on Android. Developer accounts are not free: $99/year for Apple and 25$ (one time, for lifetime use) for Google. If you have any questions, our team is here to help!
Do I have to publish my radio app myself?
You will need to publish the application by yourself on your developer accounts. Nevertheless, you will be guided through each step thanks to our interactive tutorial. If you can’t publish your app, there is a paid option for us to do it for you. Don’t hesitate to contact our support team for more information.
Do I have to update my application myself?
Yes, you have to update your application yourself. However, if you are unable to update your application, there is a paid option for us to carry out the update for you. Please contact our support team for more information.
Do you provide a white label for the applications (with no mentions of RadioKing)?
By default, “RadioKing” appears at the bottom of the app description and in the “Info” icon on the application’s reading screen. It’s possible to remove any mentions of RadioKing by activating the white label option.
Can I have multiple radio stations on the same Alexa Skill?
For now, you can only have one radio station per Alexa Skill. If you have multiple radio stations, you will need to create multiple Skills.
Do I have to publish my own Alexa Skill?
You don’t have to worry about publishing your voice app. We take care of publishing your Alexa Skill to our own Amazon developer account.
Do I need a developer account?
You don’t need a specific account to create your Alexa Skill. Our team will publish your skills on our developer accounts.
Can I modify my voice applications after they've been published?
Unfortunately, you cannot modify Alexa Skills yourself after they have been published. The modification of your voice applications is possible, but it requires a complete republishing by one of our developers. Republishing is priced at $18/ £12 /€10.
Does the mention "RadioKing" appear on the player?
No, the radio player is white-labeled and therefore does not display any mentions of RadioKing.
Does the radio player work on a mobile phone?
Radio Player uses HTML5 to launch playback, making it compatible with most smartphones.
