These terms explain how our Ad Pay Protection (APP) Program works. This program is part of your agreement with Dash.fi and is designed to help you get refunds for bad or invalid advertising traffic from platforms like Google Ads or Meta Ads.

1. What Words Mean

  • Allow dash.fi to upload customer audience exclusions into Meta and a list of IP’s to block in Google every day.

3. What the Program Does

Dash.fi will check your ad accounts every month to identify bad traffic (called "Invalid Traffic"). This includes fake clicks, bots, spam, or traffic from outside your target location. If we find that you were overcharged, we’ll request a refund or dispute from the ad platform for you. 

Additionally, dash.fi will provide customer audience exclusions and provide IP blocking exclusions lists to proactively present from ever paying for invalid clicks in the first place.  This savings will be reported monthly and will contribute to the 3% back guarantee.

dash.fi will upload custom audiences to your Meta campaigns to exclude once a month and report on the total savings of invalid clicks that audience prevented each month.  With Google, dash.fi will upload up a list of IP’s to block relevant to your campaigns each day for you to exclude and the total savings of invalid clicks from the IP blocking will be reported on each month.
