Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Sell Ads – Sell your ad space. Without middleman.
Yes. The plugin itself is free, and nothing in it is locked, limited or disabled. There are two ways to take payments and you choose freely: Your own Stripe API key — the plugin takes no service fee and no commission at all. Advertisers pay into your own Stripe account, so the only costs are Stripe's regular processing fees. Connect with Stripe — the payment runs through our Stripe Connect platform at sellads.cybie.de and a 7 % Sell Ads fee is deducted from each payment, on top of Stripe's own processing fees. In return you do not have to create an API key or configure a webhook. You can switch between the two at any time on the settings page. Either way you need a Stripe account.
Yes. The settings page has a mode switch: Live or Test mode. In test mode the payment step
through the whole process: upload an ad, see the confirmation, then accept and publish the order in your dashboard. The ad space says plainly that no payment is taken, and orders created this way are marked as test orders in the order list. This is not the same as Stripe's own test mode. If you want to test with Stripe's test cards, stay in Live and enter an sk_test_ key.
Yes. Payments, subscriptions and cancellations are handled by Stripe. Once you have entered your own Stripe API key, this plugin sends requests from your site directly to the Stripe API (https://api.stripe.com) in order to create checkout sessions, read their result, cancel subscriptions and open the Stripe billing portal. The data transmitted is limited to what a payment requires: the campaign name, the monthly price and your site URL. Buyers enter their payment and contact details on Stripe's own checkout pages; those details are never handled by this plugin. Your site also receives webhook notifications from Stripe, which are verified by signature. Stripe terms of service: https://stripe.com/legal Stripe privacy policy: https://stripe.com/privacy Only if you choose "Connect with Stripe": your site additionally talks to our own service at https://sellads.cybie.de. It acts as the Stripe Connect platform, which is why the plugin never needs a Stripe API key of yours in that mode. The data your site sends is: your site URL, your WordPress admin URL, the administrator e-mail address, the plugin version, the country you selected, the campaign name and description, the monthly price and currency, and the Stripe identifiers of a purchase (checkout session, subscription, customer). The service passes Stripe's webhook notifications back to your site, signed with a shared secret. No payment details, no card data and no visitor data are transmitted to us — those stay between the buyer and Stripe. If you use your own Stripe API key instead, this service is never contacted at all. Sell Ads service terms of service: https://sellads.cybie.de/terms.html Sell Ads service privacy policy: https://sellads.cybie.de/privacy.html No other third party services are used.
If you use your own Stripe API key: only with Stripe. There is no account, sign-up or connection with us required in that mode, and no data is sent to us at all. If you choose "Connect with Stripe" instead, your site registers itself with our service at sellads.cybie.de as described above, and a Stripe Express account is created for you during the onboarding. You can disconnect at any time and go back to using your own key.
Yes, and most site owners do. Create one campaign per position, each with its own monthly price, headline and button text, and place each one where it belongs with its own shortcode. A banner under the header, a square in the sidebar and a footer strip can all be rented out at the same time and at three different prices. There is no limit on how many ad spaces you run.
No, and that is the whole idea. You rent out ads directly to the advertiser, without a network in between. No account, no application, no traffic minimum and no revenue share. All you need is a Stripe account so the money has somewhere to land.
None in particular. Ad networks impose minimums because they sell impressions in bulk; you are selling one position on one site to one company that wants to reach your specific readers. A small, focused audience is often worth more per visitor than a large, general one. If a single advertiser considers your page worth paying for, you can rent out advertising space today.
Stripe tells your site, and the plugin acts on it. A failed payment and a cancelled subscription both arrive as webhook notifications, the order is marked accordingly, and the ad stops being shown. You do not have to watch for it.
Yes, at any time. Nothing appears on your site until you accept it, and even afterwards you can
