Badge usage guidelines

Please follow these guidelines when using the "Listen on Google Podcasts" badge:

• Any online use of the badge must link to your show or episode on Google Podcasts.
• Use the badge as provided, without any modifications other than resizing (down to the minimum allowed size):
  • Make sure the badge is legible
  • Do not add additional text or graphic styling such as drop shadows or reflections
  • Do not change the badge colors
  • Do not remove, add, or rearrange any text or graphics in the badge
  • Do not distort, skew, or warp the badge
• Match the badge language to the language of your marketing campaign whenever possible.
• Follow the badge size and placement rules below.
• The badge can be used only to promote content available on Google Podcasts.
• Include the appropriate Google Podcasts legal attribution when there is space in the creative.
• When using the badge in any of these additional contexts, you must request approval from the Google Podcasts Partner Brand team:
  • A TV commercial
  • An out-of-home marketing campaign
  • A marketing campaign that will receive over 1 million impressions

Badge size and placement

• Minimum badge width on a webpage is 150px wide at 1x (plus an additional border described below).
• Do not change the aspect ratio of the provided images when resizing.
• Ensure that the badge text and graphics are clear and large enough to be legible.
• Provide an additional 25% clear border on each side of the badge. Don’t place photos, typography, or other graphical elements inside this clear space. The 25% is measured from the badge itself, so if a badge were 1 unit tall by 4 units wide, there would be an addidtional .25 unit border on both the top and bottom (1 x 0.25), and a 1 unit border on either side (4 x 0.25).
• The Google Podcasts badge must be the same size or larger than other subscription badges.
• The Google Podcasts badge must be shown on a solid colored background or a simple background image that makes the badge easy to find or read. Remember that you can't change the background of the badge itself, and it must also have a clear border that matches this background.
