Where your money goes

Two kinds of invoice, one split, nothing hidden. Here is exactly what you pay us, when, and what happens to it.

The split

Most of it goes straight to Google

Using a $2,000 monthly ad budget as an example, this is how a normal month breaks down.

Your ad budget $2,000

Goes to Google to run your ads. We load it into your Google Ads account on the 1st of each month, and Google spends it showing your business to people searching nearby.

Our fee $400

20% of your ad budget. Pays for running your campaigns, your website, and your lead alerts.

When you’re billed

Two invoices, that’s it

One when you start, then the same amount every month after that.

01When you sign up
  • One-time setup fee for building your website and your Google Ads account
  • Ad budget for the rest of this month only the days left until the 1st
  • Management fee waived for your first month
02The 20th of every month
  • Next month’s ad budget paid ahead, so your ads never stop on the 1st
  • Management fee 20% of your ad budget
  • Same amount every month unless you change your budget
Your first bill

Why it isn’t a round number

Google doesn’t count months as 28, 30 or 31 days. It uses an average of 30.4 days and caps your daily spend from that. So your first invoice only charges for the days you actually get.

Monthly ad budget ÷ 30.4 × days until the 1st

Capping your ads at that daily rate means Google can never spend more than your monthly budget, whether the month has 28 days or 31.

Worked example

What the invoices look like

A $2,000 monthly ad budget, signing up on the 2nd of a 30-day month. That leaves 29 days until the 1st.

Invoice 1
Sent when you sign up, on the 2nd
Setup feeOne-time$1,000.00
Ad budget$65.79 a day, 29 days$1,907.90
Management feeWaived, first month$0.00
Total$2,907.90
Invoice 2 onward
Sent on the 20th, every month
Ad budgetFor the month starting on the 1st$2,000.00
Management fee20% of ad budget$400.00
Total$2,400.00

The daily rate is worked out to the cent behind the scenes, so multiplying the rounded $65.79 yourself may come out one cent different.
