How to file against a brand bidder on Webgains
01
Find the account
Ask Webgains to identify the publisher from the tracking link and the time of the click.
02
Decline before the lock
Pending commission can be declined; after the lock it gets harder. The date is below.
03
Send the evidence
The ad, the click path and the ID, together. That is what a compliance team acts on.
The validation period (formerly the recall period) runs 30 days from the transaction by default, longer where agreed with Webgains.
Once the period passes, the transaction is confirmed and cannot be cancelled or adjusted.
Networks count from the transaction's date. A capture date is a close stand-in: the sale follows the click.
