Reporting of paid content offers

Preliminary Remarks

The IVW Reporting feature is available as a module in the contracting company on the live system.     

• In the Paid Content segment, sold digital offers that are marketed as advertising media are reported and shown on a monthly basis. Paid content offers can be available within apps and websites behind payment barriers.

• The IVW separates paid content offerings from other digital offerings. 

Further information can be found on the IVW website  or directly from a responsible auditor.

Necessary components for use 

In contrast to IVW rules for print, an IVW rule for paid content can be used independently, without further components on an offer.

• Prices are defined directly in the IVW rule without a price sheet.

• Offers with IVW rules for paid content do not have to contain delivery lists.

Creation of an IVW rule for paid content

An IVW rule for paid content

General information

Information on price groups

• In the IVW rule, lower limits must be defined for 3 price groups.

• A value of at least 0.01 must be entered in the "Price group A - Lower limit" field. 

• Validity:
  The   icon can be used to create an additional column of price groups, which is supplemented with an additional validity in the future. This allows price changes to be implemented within an IVW rule. 

• The IVW rule is saved using the "Save" button.

Note:

• Reports on IVW rules for paid content are prepared monthly.

  • This means that no totalized prices should be used in the price groups for offers billed quarterly or annually.

  • The prices of the price groups should be calculated down to one month if necessary.

• By using validity periods, price changes can be stored for the future. By adding further price groups, including validity, these are activated from the time the validity date is reached.
