Current month card

The current month card shows your current balance, and a simplified breakdown of how your balance is calculated. For example, the July 2020 card shows the following:

  • Balance from previous month: $104.15 USD is the unpaid balance carried over or the amount owed from the previous month, in this case, June.
  • Net cost: $571.20 USD is the cost of campaigns and taxes or fees, if applicable, in July minus any adjustments and credits you may have received.
  • Payments: $500 USD is the total amount in payments received in July.
  • Current balance: $175.35 USD is the current unpaid balance or the amount owed that will be charged either on the date displayed in the next automatic payment card or when you reach your threshold limit.

To view a full breakdown of how your balance was calculated for the month, click the [ v ] to expand the section.

In the expanded view, you’ll find more details on the current month’s activity:

  • Balance from June: This is the unpaid balance from June that was carried over to July. In the example, your current month started with a balance of $104.15 USD.
  • Net cost: This section details your current month’s activity including:
    • Breakdown of cost per each campaign
    • Adjustments received, if any. For any invalid traffic credits that you receive, you'll notice an additional line stating the original month of service in which the invalid traffic occurred. You may view more than one line for invalid traffic credits if they correspond to different months of service. You can also click on View details to view a campaign breakdown for the invalid traffic credits.
    • Credits used from any active promotions. You can now also know how much of your promo credit was used and how much remains.
    • An estimate of applicable taxes and fees, if any. Final taxes and fees are calculated at the end of the month.
  • Payments: This is the total amount paid in July. Here you can find all completed, failed, pending, and declined payments. Each completed payment links to its payment receipt which opens in a new tab.
    • According to local regulations in some countries, we are required to charge taxes at the time of manual payment. Customers in these countries will see a dotted line under the payment information with the details of the prepayment amount, tax amount, and total payment amount.
    • In some cases you may have an outstanding balance before you make a manual payment, a part of that payment will be used to cover the outstanding balance. It will appear as “Past usage, taxes and fees” in the dotted line tooltip.
  • Current balance: This is the amount that is currently unpaid.

In the far right column you’ll find the "Documents" section that shows when the documents for the month will be available, typically by the 5th business day of the month. Just below the documents section, if you have any active promotions in your account, you'll find the "Promotions" section, which contains a link to the promotions page where you can read information about any active or used promo codes.
