FAQs

Who Listens to This Podcast?

ChargeForward Conversations is aimed at eCommerce merchants and payment industry professionals who want to stay ahead of trends, tackle tough challenges, and hear from the best in the business.

What topics do you cover?

We explore all things payments, FinTech, and eCommerce, including fraud prevention, chargebacks, AI in financial services, regulatory shifts, and where the industry is headed next. If you have a unique take that merchants can benefit from, we’re all ears.

Am I guaranteed a guest spot if I apply?

Not necessarily. We receive a lot of applications and select guests based on relevance, originality, and expertise. If we think you’re a great fit but don’t have an immediate slot, we may keep you on our shortlist for future episodes.

Do I need prior podcasting experience?

Nope! If you have valuable insights and a clear, engaging way of sharing them, we’ll guide you through the process.

Can I promote my product, book, or service?

Yes, but subtly. The best guests focus on insights first, promotion second. If your topic is engaging, eCommerce merchants will naturally want to learn more about what you do.

What’s the format and length of the podcast?

We record a remote video interview. Each episode runs 40-60 minutes and follows a conversational format. Expect deep dives, candid discussions, and practical takeaways—not just scripted talking points.

How is the interview recorded?

We record remotely via riverside.fm. You’ll need a quiet space, a strong internet connection, a dedicated camera, and a good microphone (or quality headphones with a mic).

Can I suggest a topic?

Absolutely! In fact, we prefer it. The best guests have a specific idea they’re excited to discuss, especially one that helps eCommerce merchants navigate the industry.

How can I prepare for the interview?

Once you're selected, we’ll send a prep guide with key points, possible questions, and tech setup tips to make sure you sound like a pro. In most cases, we will do a tech-test and pre-interview ahead of time.

What happens after the episode airs?

We’ll promote the episode on our website and social media. We’ll send a dedicated email to our list of 35K subscribers. We’ll also run a paid promotion to ensure that your episode receives the attention it deserves.

How many downloads or views do each episode receive?

This varies widely between episodes, but with minimal promotion, most episodes receive 2-3K downloads or views within the first few weeks.

We’ll run the numbers; You’ll see the savings.
