Set Advertiser Default Delivery Costs

Here's how to set advertiser default delivery costs in Bionic for Agencies.

Delivery Costs represent costs that go beyond what is charged in the standard rate. They could be any additional fees, such as Ad Serving Fees or OOH installation, you want to separate out, but are still part of the Total Cost (Client Cost) you need to account for. Delivery Costs will get added onto the Total Media Cost.

If you have Delivery Costs that consistently occur for a particular Advertiser, you can set them up in the Advertiser settings to ensure they carry into each campaign that you create for that advertiser. You can always override these defaults in individual campaigns, or even individual placements as needed.

In this article, we'll learn how to:

  1. Add Advertiser Default Delivery Costs
  2. Set Default Values
  3. Reorder Delivery Costs
  4. Remove Delivery Costs
