How does the sponsored card show up in the feed?

It appears as a native card alongside cuts other users have photographed, with your hero photo, headline, description, distance from the user, and tap-to-call or directions. We label it as sponsored, but the layout matches organic posts so it does not read as a banner. We cap at one sponsored card per eight organic items, so your placement is the punctuation, not the noise.

Who actually sees my campaign?

Users inside the target radius you set, in the language and country they use the app in. You define the radius in kilometers around your venue (anywhere from a few blocks to an entire city). Outside that radius, your card is not served, so you never pay for impressions to people who could not realistically visit you.

Can I customize the card?

Yes. Upload your own hero photo, write your own headline and description, and update them at any time from the dashboard. The live preview in the portal shows you exactly what users will see before you launch, and any change you make to a running campaign goes live without relaunching.

How are plans differentiated?

Plans differ by campaign duration and daily impression cap. Both are shown alongside the price in the dashboard before you pay, so you know exactly what you are buying. Higher plans run longer or serve to more people per day, and the dashboard surfaces both numbers up front.

Do quality scores on my venue page affect the placement?

Quality scores are independent and always organic. When real users photograph cuts they bought from you, their results roll up into your venue's average score on the places map. We do not adjust those scores based on whether you are paying. Paid placement gets your venue seen, but the score it carries is built by your customers.

From the dashboard. Hit cancel on any campaign and serving stops, no further charges, and your venue stays on the places map with the average score intact. Each campaign is a one-shot flat-rate purchase, so there is nothing to unsubscribe from. We do not require a phone call to leave.

Where you appear

In the feed and on the places map

Sponsored campaigns appear as native cards inside the MeatGrader feed, alongside cuts photographed by other users. Your card carries your hero photo, your headline, and your description, with directions and a tap-to-call.

Every paid tier also pins your venue on the places map for users inside your target radius, so people searching nearby find you without scrolling.
