Read these terms together with the proposal, booking or assignment terms for your campaign. The specific services, costs and commitments should be clear before you accept.
1. Using Advertified
These terms apply to the website and platform. If you act for an organisation, you must have authority to do so. Campaign-specific agreements apply to the services and commitments they describe.
An accepted proposal, booking confirmation or separate agreement takes priority for its specific subject matter, subject to rights that the law does not allow either party to exclude. A document does not become an accepted agreement simply because it appears in the platform.
2. Who operates the service
Advertified is the trading name used for this service. Website: https://advertified.com. Physical address: The Vineyard, Devon Valley Road, Devon Park, Stellenbosch, 7600. Contact: ad@advertified.com.
3. Enquiries and registration
Sending a brief, enquiry or registration request asks us to review it. It does not create an account, reserve media, place an order or commit you to finance.
We may verify registration details before granting access. Workspace access is limited to the organisations and roles you are authorised to represent.
4. Your brief and approvals
Provide accurate information, explain important constraints and only submit material you have permission to use. Review the audience, budget, dates, creative and other decisions submitted for your approval.
Tell us promptly if the brief or your authority changes. Changes can affect the proposed cost, timing and media selection.
5. Recommendations and AI
We use research, software, AI and human review to support planning. Audience and performance estimates depend on their sources and assumptions; they are not guarantees of sales, reach or other results.
AI recommendations do not by themselves authorise spending or confirm availability, prices, bookings or payments.
6. Media availability and quotations
Media listings and indicative rates can change. A listing or proposal does not reserve space or airtime. Final availability, specifications and rates depend on the applicable supplier confirmation and quote validity.
Your proposal or quotation should identify the selected media, dates, quantities, included services, exclusions and any conditions still awaiting confirmation.
7. What proposal approval means
Approving a proposal confirms your chosen campaign and authorises only the actions and costs stated in the approval request and its attached terms. Review those terms before approving.
Proposal approval is separate from booking confirmation. A booking becomes binding when the applicable acceptance, supplier confirmation, payment or purchase-order conditions have been met. The confirmation identifies the placements and dates booked.
An approval is not permission for unrelated additional spending. Material changes to scope, price or timing require agreement.
8. Prices, fees and payment
Your quotation or agreement sets out the amount payable, applicable VAT, payment schedule and included services. Media, planning or management services, creative production, printing, installation and other charges must be identified as included, separately charged or excluded as applicable.
Public budget bands are indicative, not final quotations. Do not assume that production or every campaign cost is included in a media budget.
Deposits, balance payments and purchase-order requirements depend on the accepted agreement. Amounts and charges must be disclosed before you commit; an invoice does not by itself authorise a new charge.
9. Changes, cancellation and refunds
Contact Advertified in writing to request a change or cancellation, identifying the campaign and affected booking. A request does not automatically cancel a supplier commitment.
We will check the booking status and explain any applicable charges, work already completed and recoverable supplier amounts. Cancellation charges and deadlines depend on the terms disclosed and agreed for that booking, subject to applicable law.
Any refund or credit depends on the accepted terms, services delivered and legal rights that apply. We will confirm the outcome and applicable processing timing. These terms do not impose a blanket no-refund rule or remove statutory cancellation rights.
10. If media changes or delivery falls short
Tell Advertified promptly about a delivery problem. We will review the agreed deliverables and available evidence with the relevant supplier and explain the proposed resolution.
A replacement placement, revised schedule, credit or refund depends on the agreement, the circumstances and applicable rights. Material substitutions or additional costs require your approval; an alternative is not automatically equivalent to the original booking.
Supplier responsibilities do not remove Advertified’s own agreed obligations or any responsibility imposed by law.
11. Advertise Now, Pay Later
Advertise Now, Pay Later connects interested clients with an independent finance provider to explore funding for an approved campaign.
Advertified facilitates the introduction and is not the lender. Finance depends on the provider’s assessment, approval and terms. Any finance agreement is between you and that provider.
A referral or finance approval does not itself book media. If finance is declined, another payment arrangement or a revised campaign must be agreed before proceeding. Existing commitments remain subject to their accepted terms.
12. Media owners and suppliers
Suppliers must have authority to offer the inventory and keep supplied rates, availability, specifications and restrictions accurate. Listing inventory does not guarantee enquiries or bookings.
Each booking must specify the accepted deliverables, price, dates, production responsibilities, cancellation terms, evidence required and payment arrangements. Notify Advertified promptly if a commitment cannot be fulfilled.
Invoices and delivery evidence are reviewed against the agreed booking. Uploading an invoice does not by itself confirm payment or change the agreed due date.
13. Creators and influencers
Creators receive invitations for campaigns for which they have been selected and may accept or decline. Registration does not guarantee selection; creators do not choose campaigns from an open campaign list.
Review the offered fee, deliverables, deadlines, revision requirements, approval process, payment terms and any cancellation or exclusivity conditions before accepting the specific offer.
Agree content usage rights, usage duration, channels and any paid promotion rights in the assignment terms. Accepting an assignment does not by itself transfer unlimited ownership of your content.
Obtain required campaign approval before publication, clearly disclose advertising as required by law and applicable platform rules, and provide the agreed publication links or other delivery evidence. Invoice submission is separate from payment confirmation.
14. Creative material and intellectual property
You retain rights in material you lawfully supply. You permit Advertified to use it as needed to provide the requested service and keep justified transaction records. Third-party rights still apply.
The campaign agreement must specify who supplies artwork, who approves it, deadlines, production charges and any rights granted in commissioned work. Do not assume creative production or unlimited reuse is included.
Advertified and its licensors retain rights in the platform and original site content. Supplier, creator and platform trademarks remain their owners’ property.
15. Accounts, confidentiality and acceptable use
Keep credentials secure and tell us about suspected unauthorised access. Do not bypass permissions, misrepresent authority, extract private data, introduce malicious code or submit unlawful advertising.
Protect confidential campaign, client, supplier and pricing information. Sharing information for a campaign does not make it public or authorise unrelated use.
Personal information is handled as described in the Privacy Policy.
16. Availability, suspension and termination
We may interrupt access for maintenance or restrict access where reasonably necessary for security, unlawful use, material breach or non-payment under an applicable agreement.
Where practicable, we will explain the reason and steps needed to resolve a restriction. Urgent protective action may be needed first. Suspending access does not automatically cancel an existing booking or erase payment and confidentiality obligations.
17. Responsibility and your legal rights
Advertified will provide its services with reasonable care and in line with its agreed commitments and applicable law. Estimates and third-party information may change.
To the extent permitted by law, neither party is liable to the other for indirect or consequential loss that was not reasonably foreseeable from the breach. Transaction-specific liability limits or indemnities must be stated in the applicable agreement.
Nothing here excludes liability, warranties or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded. Mandatory rights under the Consumer Protection Act, Electronic Communications and Transactions Act and other applicable law take priority. Terms requiring special notice must be highlighted before commitment where required.
18. Electronic messages and disputes
We may communicate electronically about your requests, accounts and campaigns. An automated acknowledgement confirms receipt only; it is not acceptance of a booking or finance application.
South African law governs these terms, subject to mandatory law applicable to a transaction. Contact us to try to resolve a dispute; you remain free to use a competent regulator, ombud or court.
19. Updates and contact
Changes to these website terms will be dated and published here. Changes to existing accepted campaign agreements follow the notice and agreement requirements of those agreements and applicable law.
