Payment Methods & Credit Card Invoicing

Overview

The DIRECTV Advertising Self-Serve uses a simple, transparent pay-as-you-go billing model. Advertisers are only charged for actual campaign spend - no deposits, pre-authorizations, or upfront fees.

Supported Payment Methods

We accept:

• Credit/Debit Cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover)
• ACH Payments (Bank Account / eCheck)

To avoid campaign pauses, ensure your payment method is valid and has sufficient available funds or credit.

How Pay-As-You-Go Billing Works

The billing system runs overnight to calculate campaign spend and process payments.

First Payment Threshold

• The first charge occurs once you spend $100 or more.
• Example: If you spend $120 on your first day, you’ll be charged $120 in a single transaction.

Ongoing Incremental Charges

• After the first charge, payments are collected in $500 increments, with a maximum of one charge per day.

Daily Spend Over $500

• If your daily spend exceeds $500, you will be charged for the full daily spend, not in multiple increments.
• Example: Spending $2,000 in one day = one $2,000 charge.

Daily Spend Under $500

• If your spend is less than $500, charges are held until:
  • Your cumulative spend reaches $500, OR
  • 30 days have passed since the last charge.
• Example: Spending $300 over 30 days = one $300 charge on day 30.

Organization-Level Adjustments

- The incremental payment amounts could be changed on an organizational level if deemed necessary 

Receipts & Notifications

Every time your card or bank account is charged, you’ll receive an email receipt with:

• Amount charged
• Transaction date
• Summary of campaign activity tied to the charge

Billing Best Practices

• You are only charged for actual spend - never pre-authorizations or upfront fees.
• To prevent interruptions:
  • Keep your payment method up to date.
  • Ensure adequate credit or funds for expected campaign spend.
