All airtime fees will be billed immediately pursuant to the payment option you choose and are non-refundable upon acceptance of your spot content by the target media outlet. In the event that your target media outlet does not accept your spot, then you will automatically be refunded for the actual airtime fees associated with your order less a $10 non-refundable reservation fee.
