All advertising budgets are quoted and paid in US Dollars (USD). This policy explains why we use US Dollars for advertising, how payments in Naira or Ghana Cedis work, and what you need to know as a client.
Major advertising platforms such as Google and YouTube use US Dollars (USD) or other foreign currencies for billing. The cost of advertising is affected by:
Quoting directly in local currency can result in a difference between the amount paid and the actual advertising funds available on the platform. Using USD ensures that your full advertising budget is available and delivers the expected results.
Clients can pay in Nigerian Naira (₦) or Ghanaian Cedis (₵). However, the payment must represent the USD value of the approved advertising budget at the applicable exchange rate at the time of payment.
If your advertising budget is $100 and the exchange rate is $1 = ₦1,500
You will pay: ₦150,000
If your advertising budget is $100 and the exchange rate is $1 = ₵15
You will pay: ₵1,500
If the exchange rate changes before payment, the local currency equivalent may also change.
Exchange rates can change frequently. We reserve the right to recalculate the local-currency equivalent immediately before payment. The applicable rate may be based on the rate from:
This ensures that the agreed advertising budget is not reduced by currency fluctuations.
There are two separate charges:
The money allocated to Google, YouTube or another advertising platform to run your campaign.
The fee charged by DISTINCT CONSULTANCY LIMITED for strategy, setup, management, optimization, reporting, creative services and ongoing support.
These charges will be clearly stated separately in your quotation or invoice.
If a client pays a fixed amount in Naira or Ghana Cedis and the currency converts to less than the agreed USD advertising budget due to exchange rate changes or transaction costs, the client will be required to pay the difference before the campaign is fully funded.
Our objective is not to make additional charges from currency conversion. The purpose of this policy is to ensure that your advertising budget is accurately converted into the required foreign currency and fully available on the advertising platform.
WE ARE COMMITTED TO CLEAR PRICING, HONEST COMMUNICATION AND DELIVERING REAL RESULTS.
By making payment for an advertising campaign, the client acknowledges that:
Together We Grow Your Brand!
