A Spot Requested status means your request has been successfully sent to the publisher. The publisher is now reviewing your brand, creative requirements, and availability before approving the placement.
No payment is finalized at this stage.
While your campaign is in Spot Requested status, the publisher may:
Review your brand or company information
Confirm the spot is still available
Check category or competitive restrictions
Review any notes or messages you included with your request
Some publishers may also reach out with questions or clarifications before approving.
At this stage, no action is required unless the publisher contacts you.
You can:
Review your campaign details
Prepare creative assets if they are not yet ready
Monitor your dashboard for updates
If the publisher approves your request, your campaign will move to Payment Authorized and become officially confirmed.
If the publisher declines the request, you’ll be notified and no payment will be processed.
Approval times vary by publisher. Many respond within a few business days, but timing can depend on inventory, creative requirements, or brand review.
Yes. You can cancel a request at any time before it is approved.
No. A spot is not guaranteed until the publisher approves the request.
