Modifying Your Baseline Offer
At times, you may find it necessary to create an entirely new Baseline Offer. Such a situation occurs when you need to make changes to the commission structure of your Baseline Offer. Once you create a new Baseline Offer, it will immediately take effect for new publishers applying to your program. You can only change your Baseline Offer once in a 30-day period.
Check out this article in the Advertiser Help Center for a step-by-step guide.
