Rejected Free Upgrade By Check Mate & Expired Ads

If your Standard Advert gets rejected for any reason covered in the terms of advertiser term 2, you will need to read the notification from CMAI and fix your advert's landing page and advert link.

If the problem is not fixable by fixing the landing page, then edit your advert in step 2 and save all changes in Step 3 and republish the new advert.

NOTE: BY USING EDIT ADVERT, YOU CAN CHANGE THE ADVERT TO COMPLETELY NEW CONTENT AND NEW LINK. EDIT ADVERT IS STEP 2. 

Editing can only take place if your Standard Advert has not expired. If expired, the Standard Advert has achieved it's intended target and ended. If not expired, you may edit in readinedd for a CM re-crawl. You will not be able to manually re-submit your advert to Check Mate like the first time. Resubmits can only be done by CM. Once you have fixed the errors in your submitted advert, CM will know it has been edited and revisit it.

Your advert is acceptable as Standard Advert so if you want to keep it as Standard then do not edit.

To fix your advert, go to step 2 and edit it.Select edit from audience as OBJECTIVE cannot be edited. Save each section of your advert and on step 3 either add/edit images or leave as text advert. Click save and publish.

CM will return to rejected advert providing it is fixed and not expired and check it once more. If the advert is suitable for upgrading, CM will send you a notification to resubmit it to CMAI.

This process is not immediate and can take time for CM to return and check.

Please read your rejection notification if rejected. If late rejected, then the advert cannot be upgraded again as it has been already once rejected due to breach of advertiser terms. Late rejected adverts will remain published as Standard until expiry.

If expired, the Standard Advert is ended.

KYC Update 18th August 2023

The new update option is being added to KYC early. It is being released today.

To prepare for this important improvement to KYC, your old proof is being archived meaning we retain it in KYC however your KYC will fail and members get a notification in their affiliate back office to replace it with a new proof of address. Then after upload of the new, it is self-serve KYC as you will be able to update all options without being asked. 

Your current proof of address has been removed from KYC and needs to be re-uploaded.

After this upload has been achieved, you will be able to update your proof every 3 months without being notified. Self service KYC will keep your account compliant.

Note: If you have changed your name/address/looks, please update your proof of ID and selfie too.

The available options for KYC for each of the 3 requirements are listed in the option drop downs to describe your proof. If the proof you are uploading is not in the drop down do not use it as it will fail. No exceptions.

All KYC is managed from your affiliate back office KYC wallet inside your wallet area.

Coming soon will be a real time KYC video and photo requirement to secure your account and wallet for future upgraded features to be released to your account. Your photo ID and address ID must sync with the geo-location the video and photo is recorded and should be done at the address of your registered account. You will also be required to verbally identify yourself for audio KYC and anti-machine input. Shared devices are not allowed. If geo-location is off or location or time stamped different from data package retrieval (actual) or edited, tampered with or any other manipulation = deleted account. 

To delete your KYC data and account, please use the link at the bottom of page - support > delete account and data. This action completely wipes all data from your account and closes it. No data is retained and means your account will be deleted forever and not recoverable under any circumstances. On deletion you will not be notified of deletion as we will no longer have your email or details to confirm.

Thanks
