You can pay for the use of ad.fast either by buying Credits in advance or by monthly/quarterly invoice. There are currently two charge rates for using ad.fast: one for national publications and one for regional publications, with each method having a charge for delivering, for fixing the PDF and for fixing/optimising the colour.
The number of Credits used and the associated charges are as follows:
(each credit is equivalent to £0.83)
Delivery |
PDF Fix |
Colour Optimization |
Regional | National | ||
Credits | Price | Credits | Price |
1 Credit | £0.83 | 3 Credits | £2.49 |
1 Credit | £0.83 | 2 Credits | £1.66 |
5 Credits | £4.15 | 9 Credits | £7.47 |
With most regional publications there is the option to deliver the ad file without checks and so the delivery can be as little as £0.83. With all national publications the ad files must undergo a check and be correctly created (to specification) in order to deliver – if you supply a file correctly, there is only the delivery charge (£2.49) to pay. If we need to fix the PDF and/or fix/optimise the colour we will charge the additional amounts should you choose to deliver the fixed/optimised file.
The exact cost (or number of credits) for each job is shown on the site at point of use, and is only charged at the point of delivery.
For monthly invoice accounts (discount calculated on monthly volume, calculated each month):
No. of deliveries | 1-100 | 101-250 | 251-500 | 501-1000 | 1001-2000 | 2001+ |
Unit Cost | £0.83 | £0.75 | £0.70 | £0.65 | £0.62 | £0.59 |
For Credit purchases:
No. of Credits purchased | 1-250 | 251-500 | 501-1000 | 1001-5000 | 5000+ |
Unit Cost | £0.83 | £0.80 | £0.76 | £0.70 | £0.65 |
