Story Ad
The story ad has its origins in social media and is just as suitable as an advertising format for storytelling and finely coordinated videos or images. The change from one slide to the next is automatic, but can also be controlled using the arrows.

Advertising material delivery deadlines
- Standard formats: three working days
- Special formats (e.g. branding day, videos, advertorials, native advertising, sponsoring): five working days
A campaign can only be guaranteed to start on time if the delivery deadlines are met. Where possible, advertising material that is delivered late will be considered at the latest up to 3 pm on the previous working day (standard formats) or one working day before the start of the campaign (special formats). If this final deadline cannot be met, the start of the campaign will be postponed.

Branding Day background images
Branding Day background images: the function of background images and colours is to provide a visual frame for Branding Days. Advertising messages in the form of images and/or text may not be included in background images – these should only be placed in the banners used for the respective campaign. If the background image does not meet these requirements, it cannot be used. The visibility of the background image depends on the screen resolutions used. If these are too low, some or all of the background image may not be displayed. It is therefore not possible to display the entire background image on all resolutions. If a background colour is used, it must be made available to us as a hex code (e.g.: #ED3B94).
