Posting, and when something goes wrong
At the slot time the ad posts on every placement in the package, with your ad label ("#ad" by default). Links become tracked links, so the report can count clicks. Stories show only the picture or video: they carry no caption or tappable link, and Instagram doesn't make links in captions tappable. Advertisers can tag their public Instagram page and add a WhatsApp number: a button on Telegram, a link on Facebook, and the number as text on Instagram. The report counts WhatsApp chats opened where it's a link.
If Facebook, Instagram or Telegram refuses the post, we try again for a while. If it still fails, the advertiser gets credit for that part and you're emailed. A disconnected channel or lost permission is the usual cause: reconnect it on Channels.
Keep the post up for the time the package promises. A post removed early is held for our team to check before you're paid.
