Advertiser updates: Find the perfect newsletter partner with less effort
As the world’s biggest newsletter marketplace, we work with hundreds of large brands every day. And we understand you need more data to help you choose the right sponsorships.

Here’s how the review process works for advertisers on Paved.
- •When we collect reviews
After you sponsor a publication in the Paved Marketplace, we’ll ask you to rate your experience on a scale of 1-5 stars and share your thoughts. The review will be shared internally with the publishers to provide feedback and help them improve. - •How and when reviews are displayed
If desired, the publishers can anonymously share up to 4 verified advertiser reviews on their public Paved Profile. The advertiser’s identity and personal information will remain anonymous. For example, a review from Microsoft would display as, “Review from Software & Tech company.”
