Sponsorship Placement (Ads)

Want to offer sponsors a logotype placement in your newsletter, README or anywhere else? You can easily with Polar.

  • Set custom image dimensions per benefit
  • Customers can self-manage uploading their logotypes in your dimensions
  • Offering light & dark mode options
note

No review/approval process of uploaded images.

Sponsors with this benefit can upload any image. In our newsletter, you see the image before publishing, but automated elsewhere there is always the risk of bad images being uploaded.
