Platform-wide creative requirements

These rules apply to all Stuff advertising. They sit on top of the format-specific specifications above — both must be met for your creative to go live.

Overview

  • All advertising must conform to Stuff's Terms and Conditions.
  • Creatives must not be sent in two parts. The creative must be received whole in one email.
  • There is a limit of four rotating creatives per standard display advert.
  • All creatives must click through to a new window.
  • Creatives must not contain strobing effects.
  • Only static creatives (.jpg or animated .gif) are accepted for Newsletters. Standard Flash and Rich Media are not compatible with all email programs.
  • Any 3rd Party costs are to be paid for by the advertiser.
  • Stuff will not accept advertisements that mislead the user (e.g. Windows dialogue boxes, error messages or editorial content).
  • Creatives with a white background must have a one-pixel wide border.
  • Stuff reserves the right to reject creatives that require a high percentage of CPU resources.
  • All creative submissions are subject to reasonable approval by Stuff.
  • Click URLs have a limit of 254 characters.
  • All creative assets (landing page, advertiser's redirect, tracking pixels) must be secure (HTTPS).

Instruction and Material Deadline

  • All Rich Media digital advertising is due no later than 5 working days prior to commencement.
  • All Standard digital advertising is due no later than 3 working days prior to commencement.
  • Late delivery of creative material is the responsibility of the Customer. The campaign will be deemed to have begun on the original start date.
  • Stuff reserves the right to charge an additional processing fee of $150+GST where creative material is delivered after 3pm the day prior to campaign commencement.
  • Support hours: 8:30am–5pm Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays).
  • All creative material must be provided from an HTTPS server using a commercial CA-signed certificate.

Accepted Data Formats

  • Third-party redirect tags (please supply JavaScript tags)

HTML5

  • Stuff accepts HTML5 creative with a maximum 100KB file size for desktop and mobile campaigns.
  • Please traffic a backup image (max 40KB) for your HTML5 creative as particular browsers don't support HTML5 fully.
  • If providing a third-party adserved tag, ensure that the naming of all HTML5 assets uploaded into your adserver is 24 characters or less (including spaces).
