Open an offer from your inbox to see the brief, the conversation, what happens if you accept, the proposed creative, and where it sits on your calendar. Then choose one of four responses.

Accept

  1. Choose Accept.
  2. Confirm with Accept & review creative.

The offer becomes a booked flight. You need a confirmed overlay to accept: if you see Confirm your overlay in Settings before accepting bookings, finish Add the overlay to OBS first. You also cannot accept if that placement is already booked for the same time.

Counter

  1. Choose Counter.
  2. Enter Your rate, total in dollars.
  3. Choose Send counter.

A counter changes the rate only. The brand can accept your counter or send a new one.

Ask a question

Choose Ask, write your question, and choose Send question. Asking pauses the offer's expiry clock while you wait for an answer.

Decline

  1. Choose Decline.
  2. Optionally add a reason. The brand sees the reason you give.
  3. Choose Decline offer.
NoteAccepting an offer does not charge the brand on the spot. Money moves as the flight delivers.
