3. Bundle and Fund Management

What happens if my account becomes inactive for a long period of time?
If your account remains inactive for three years, it will be automatically deleted as stated in our Terms and Conditions. This means that any funds in your account at the time of deletion will be forfeited and will not be refunded. We recommend regularly logging in to keep your account active and avoid losing your funds.

Can I prevent my account from being deleted due to inactivity?
Yes, simply logging into your account at least once every three years will keep it active. This ensures that your account and any funds within it remain safe from automatic deletion.

Is there any way to recover my account or funds if they are deleted after inactivity?
Unfortunately, once your account is deleted due to three years of inactivity, it cannot be recovered, and any funds in the account will be forfeited. We recommend you periodically check your account to prevent this from happening.

4. Refunds and Account Credits

1. Are discounted ad bundles refundable if I decide not to use all of them?

No, discounted ad bundles are non-refundable, even if you choose not to use all the credits. These bundles are designed to offer significant savings upfront, making them ideal for frequent advertisers. Once purchased, the credits from your ad bundle remain in your account and do not expire as long as your account remains active. This allows you to use the remaining credits at any time in the future.

2. How are unused ad funds from a bundle refunded or credited if my account is deactivated?

If your account is deactivated due to three years of inactivity or other reasons outlined in the Terms of Service, any unused ad funds from your bundle will be forfeited and are not eligible for refund or credit. It’s important to maintain account activity to retain access to your ad funds. Regular logins or ad placements can help ensure your account remains active.

3. If I cancel a bundle purchase, will I still receive a discount on future purchases?

Canceling a bundle purchase does not guarantee a discount on future purchases. Discounts are only available for specific promotions or when purchasing new ad bundles. However, any active discount codes at the time of your future purchase may be applied during checkout if they are valid and applicable to the type of ad or bundle you choose. Be sure to check the terms of the discount codes before applying them.

7. Subscription Options and Automated Billing

Can I set up automated billing for discounted ad bundles to avoid running out of funds for listings?

Unfortunately, AmericanBreeder.com does not currently offer automated billing or subscription models that bill advertisers on a recurring basis. However, you can take advantage of the pre-load account feature to ensure you always have funds available for your listings.

This feature allows you to purchase Ad Fund Bundles in advance. Here's how it works:

1. Log into your account and go to the "Add Funds to Account" option under the ACCOUNT dropdown.
2. Select a bundle that fits your needs. Available packages include bonus credits, saving you money on ad purchases.
3. Once purchased, these funds are credited to your account wallet immediately and remain available until used. There’s no expiration on pre-loaded funds as long as your account remains active.

This approach ensures that you won't run out of funds for new listings or upgrades, providing flexibility without requiring automated billing.

Can I schedule future ad fund purchases to align with discount code promotions?

While AmericanBreeder.com doesn’t currently offer a feature to schedule future purchases, you can strategically plan your ad fund purchases to coincide with promotional periods or discount code availability. Here’s how:

1. Stay Informed on Promotions: Keep an eye on announcements for discount codes through your user dashboard or email notifications.
2. Immediate Purchase Flexibility: Once a discount code becomes available, you can purchase ad funds directly through the “Add Funds to Account” section and apply the code during checkout.
3. Use Discount Codes Wisely: Ensure the code is valid for the type of purchase you’re making—some codes may be specific to certain bundles or ad upgrades.

By monitoring promotions and purchasing funds during discount periods, you can maximize savings while maintaining control over your advertising budget.

9. Additional Offers and Loyalty Rewards

1. Can I combine a discounted bundle with other promotions or platform discounts?

Yes, you can combine discounted bundles with other promotions or platform discounts on AmericanBreeder.com. However, certain restrictions may apply. For example, while you can use discount codes during checkout for a bundle purchase, not all promotions are stackable. Each promotion or discount code has specific terms of use, which you can review before applying them. This ensures clarity on whether the offers can be combined for your purchase.

2. Does purchasing a larger bundle improve the visibility or priority of my listings?

Purchasing a larger bundle does not directly impact the visibility or priority of your listings. However, the additional funds from larger bundles can be used to purchase ad upgrades like "Highlight Ad" or "Featured Ad in Carousel," which significantly enhance your ad's visibility on the site. These upgrades help your listings stand out in search results or on category pages, making it easier for buyers to find your ads. Additionally, the platform prioritizes ads by location, ensuring that buyers near you see your listings first, regardless of bundle size.

3. Can I use a discount code on a bundle and still qualify for additional loyalty rewards?

Currently, AmericanBreeder.com does not offer a formal loyalty rewards program. However, you can use a discount code when purchasing bundles, and the credits from these bundles often come with bonus value. For instance, larger bundles provide more bonus credits, offering increased savings. While there is no explicit loyalty reward, the periodic promotions and discounted bundles act as value-added benefits for frequent advertisers. Keep an eye on the "Add Funds to Account" page for new offers or bonus opportunities.

Question 2: Can I purchase an ad listing and a value-added bundle in the same transaction?

No, Breeder ad listings and value-added bundles are two separate processes and cannot be purchased together in the same transaction.

If you're unsure about your value-added bundle size, you can adjust it during checkout by clicking the "Change Funds Option" button at the top right of the checkout page.
