Everything you need to know about Adsly
Adsly is a sponsorship and monetization marketplace connecting brands with creators. If you run a newsletter, podcast, SaaS app, blog or any platform with an audience, you can list sponsorship opportunities and earn directly from brands. We charge 0% commission on deals - creators pay only small monthly plan fees.
Opportunities are any way you can monetize your audience: newsletter sponsorships, podcast ads, logo placements in your SaaS app, banner ads on your blog, sponsored content, brand mentions, guest posts, affiliate partnerships and more. You create listings describing what you offer, set your prices and brands contact you directly to purchase.
We offer two plans: Free ($0 - 3 listings) and Pro ($15/mo - unlimited listings, alerts, full stats). We charge 0% commission on your sponsorship deals - you keep 100% of what brands pay you.
Credits let you feature any listing for 7 days (1 credit) or auto-approve pending listings (3 credits). Featured listings are highlighted on the homepage and appear at the top of search results. You can buy credits starting at $5 each. Credits never expire.
For creators with an audience: newsletter publishers, podcast hosts, SaaS/app founders, bloggers, YouTubers, community owners and anyone wanting to monetize through sponsorships. Also for brands seeking authentic, affordable sponsorship opportunities outside of traditional ad networks.
Sign up for free, create your first listing describing your platform (newsletter, podcast, app, blog, etc.) and available sponsorship opportunities, set your prices and wait for approval. Once approved, brands can contact you directly to purchase sponsorships.
Browse available listings, filter by category/language/audience, find creators that match your target market and send them an inquiry through the built-in inbox. No subscription needed to browse.
Brands send inquiries to creators directly from listing pages. Creators receive them in their dashboard inbox and can reply. Both parties can track conversation history and deal status (accepted, declined, completed) in one place. Free plan users can send up to 3 inquiries per month, Pro plan gets unlimited messaging.

Brands and creators handle payments directly between themselves. Adsly only facilitates the connection - we don't process sponsorship payments or take any commission from your deals.
Free plan sees listing views and how many users saved the listing. Pro plan sees full statistics including views, clicks, and contact form submissions. All analytics are anonymous and GDPR-compliant.
Generally no refunds, except for billing errors or duplicate charges. Credits are non-refundable once purchased. See our Terms of Service for complete refund policy.
The homepage showcases two types of listings: featured listings (purchased with credits) are displayed with a special highlight, and recently approved listings that have at least one sponsorship opportunity. Adding opportunities to your listing increases your visibility across the platform, including the homepage.
Listing approval may take up to 2 weeks. We manually review each listing to ensure quality and prevent spam.

Click the 'Claim this listing' button on your website's listing page, then contact us at [email protected] with proof of ownership (email from your domain, DNS record or other verification). Once verified, the listing transfers to your account and you get full control to edit or remove it.
Yes! If you prefer not to be listed on Adsly, email [email protected] from your domain email or provide other proof of ownership. We process removal requests within 7 business days. You can also claim the listing first and then delete it yourself.
