Seat service levels
Teads Ad Manager offers two types of service levels, Managed and Self Serve, based on the service type specified in the MSA agreement. It is important to note that there is currently no visual indicator in the TAM UI to differentiate between a Managed and Self Serve seat. If you are uncertain about the service level of your seat, please refer to your TAM MSA or reach out to your account director for confirmation before creating and editing campaigns.
TAM Managed
The client has complete access and visibility to their campaigns and reporting, while Teads takes on the responsibility of creating and managing the campaign on behalf of the client. This service type usually incurs management fees, which are agreed upon before the signing of the MSA.
TAM Self Serve
The client has complete access to the TAM platform and assumes full responsibility for creating and managing their own campaigns. Clients can seek assistance from Teads support through Intercom for any inquiries or troubleshooting needs.
