Fees Are Quoted After Fit Review. Here's How the Pricing Model Works.
Fees quoted after fit review with scope confirmed before payment and no hidden fees.
This page explains the pricing model — not a price list. No two engagements are identical. Specific amounts are disclosed by your AM after fit review confirms eligibility. If you need a fixed price upfront, this model is not the right fit.
This model is for qualified performance advertisers who have passed fit review. Not for advertisers seeking fixed published pricing, guaranteed outcomes, or casino/gambling verticals.
What is Portcast's Pricing Model?
Portcast's Pricing Model is a custom, scope-based fee structure designed for enterprise advertisers. Instead of flat published rates, fees are quoted individually after a comprehensive fit review. This ensures that advertisers only pay for the specific account complexity, platform requirements, and operational support their engagement demands, with absolutely no hidden fees.
