Founding Advertiser Terms
The £99 Founding NEWS package provides one 500 × 500 px NEWS advertising block. The £199 Founding banner package provides one rotating NEWS banner. Political founding packages are separately priced. These are separate products, each for 365 days from the agreed actual first-publication date, subject to artwork receipt and approval. No impression, traffic, conversion or sales guarantee is made.
The Founding offer is available for bookings placed by 31 December 2026 unless closed earlier. The advertised rate is charged once through Stripe. No automatic subscription or renewal is established. Each Founding customer is offered the option to renew at their original rate for one further 365-day period; later offered renewals remain below the relevant normal rate. Renewals require a new affirmative purchase.
All advertisers may replace artwork once per calendar month. The initial artwork submission does not use the first monthly replacement allowance. Artwork must comply with the published dimensions and standards. Modern Scot may review and decline unsuitable or unlawful material and will honour refund rights required under applicable law. Modern Scot may request supporting evidence before publication.
Political advertising must be identified with a PAID POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT label and an appropriate digital imprint naming and giving postal addresses for the promoter and any party/person on whose behalf it is published. The advertiser must provide accurate details, including the payer. Modern Scot retains the right to check political spending and legal compliance before accepting or continuing a placement.
Advertising does not affect editorial decisions and is not an endorsement. Queries: ads@modern.scot.
