Crowdcast

Crowdcast Review: Live Video Platform for Creator Monetisation and Community Q&A

Crowdcast targets a different webinar use case than enterprise marketing platforms — it is built for creators, educators, and community leaders who run live sessions as a primary content or revenue activity. Its Stripe-native payment integration and upvoted Q&A reflect these priorities.

Upvoted Q&A

Crowdcast's Q&A is community-voted: attendees submit questions and upvote others, and the most-voted questions surface to the top of the host's Q&A queue automatically. This crowd-curation means the host answers questions the audience collectively most wants answered, not the questions that arrived first or were manually promoted. For sessions with high question volume, this self-moderating Q&A produces higher attendee satisfaction than host-moderated queues.

Paid Access Events

Crowdcast integrates directly with Stripe — event organisers set a price for access, and Stripe handles payment at registration. Paid events require no third-party ticketing tool, membership platform, or payment gateway configuration beyond a connected Stripe account. For coaches, educators, and creators charging for live sessions, this direct payment path simplifies both the technical setup and the attendee purchasing experience.

Persistent Event Pages

Crowdcast event pages remain publicly accessible after the event ends — the recording is automatically available on the event page, and new visitors can register to access the replay. For series-based content, all sessions within a channel are discoverable from a single page. This persistent event hub doubles as content marketing — past sessions attract organic search and referral traffic for future sessions.

Score: 7.6/10 — Best webinar platform for creator monetisation and community Q&A; marketing automation and enterprise features are absent.
