Getting Paid

Publishers can create and send invoices to advertisers. Invoices are automatically created when the advertiser places an advertising order via the media kit. Both paid and unpaid invoices can be accessed online by publishers (follow the menu Advertisers/Invoices) and advertisers (follow the menu Publisher/Invoices).

Payment Methods

An advertiser can pay an invoice to a publisher automatically (PayPal, Google Checkout, Authorize.net) or manually (check, money order, bank/wire transfer). If your preferred payment method or credit card processor is not listed, please contact us. For manual methods, you receive the payment directly and mark the invoice as paid manually in our system. Since we do not process the transaction, there is no transaction fee charged by our system. However, your chosen payment processor will have applicable transaction fees.

PayPal

Your email address is used as the payment recipient by PayPal. By default, it is the email in your profile when you registered with AdSpeed. You can change PayPal email from your profile setting or for each invoice when creating or adjusting the invoice details. An advertiser clicks on the PayPal button and goes to PayPal's website where they'll pay to the email address specified in the invoice.

Authorize.net Merchant Account

You can process credit cards directly using your own merchant account via Authorize.net. For us to route the payment information to Authorize.net, you need to enter the API Login ID, the Transaction Key and the MD5 Hash Setting into your account profile from the menu My Account / Profile under tab "Settings".

Google Checkout

When creating the invoice, you can choose to get paid via Google Checkout. You would need to enter your Merchant ID in your account profile to receive payment. Currently, invoices paid via Google Checkout need to be manually marked as Paid once you receive the payment. If you want the invoice marked as Paid automatically after a successful payment, you would need to update the API Callback URL in your Google's Merchant Account. Please contact us for this URL.

Check or Money Order

If you choose this method, you should remember to provide the payment instructions such as "Payable To" in your account profile. You should also fill in the "Address" fields, available from the menu My Account / Profile under tab "Contact". This mailing address will be displayed on all invoices for your advertiser to send the check/money order.

Insertion Order

Potential advertisers can view your media kit and buy advertising directly through your media kit. An invoice will automatically be generated with the desired number of impressions, clicks, leads, or months. You can then adjust the invoice, choose a payment method and finalize the order. By default, PayPal account is the email address in your profile, you can also change it from your account profile or when adjusting a pending invoice.

Invoice Payment

When receiving the email invoice, the advertiser can click on the invoice link to view and make payment. For check or other off-line methods of payment, publishers can manually mark the invoice as paid upon receiving completed payment from advertisers. If the payment method is PayPal, the payment is automatically recorded after the system receives an automated notification from PayPal.

Recurring Invoice

When creating an invoice, you can set it as a one-time invoice or a subscription. For a recurring invoice, a new invoice will be re-generated at the specified time interval. Items will be copied and notification email will be sent out to both the buyer and seller. For the time interval, you can choose from any number of days, weeks, months or years.
