CAFE Put your station on Cafe Kinship
Internet radio stations go live here next to artists, with chat, tips and what's playing. Here's how to set yours up.
- 1
Make an account for your station
Sign up with your station's name as the username. Add your station logo as the profile picture and put your show schedule in the bio, so listeners know when to tune in.

Send us your station links
Message us with your username, your station's public page (for example your Live365, AzuraCast or Airtime page) and your stream link if you have it. That's all we need. Never send a password. We work with Live365, AzuraCast and Airtime Pro / LibreTime, and we can check others.

We connect it
We link your station to your account. You get the verified check, and your station shows up on the Radio stations page. We'll message you when it's done, usually within a day.

Put your station on air
When you're broadcasting, open Live (or Go live on your artist dashboard) and press Put your station on air. Your station shows up with everyone else who's live, with the song that's playing and the listener count, and your followers get a notification. It keeps playing until you end it from the live page.

Keep listeners coming back
Put the station on air when a show starts, so followers get the "is live" notification at the right time. Tag your songs as artist and title so "Now playing" reads right. Post about upcoming shows, and share your Cafe Kinship profile link. Listeners can chat and send tips during a live; to receive tips, turn on payouts in your artist dashboard.
Good to know
- It's free. Your station keeps streaming from your own provider; we play your public stream.
- If the station is off air when you press the button, the site says so. Start it on your station first.
- Your station must follow the same rules as everything else on Cafe Kinship (see the Terms).
