When a newsroom discovers your scoop on the wire, editors can place commercial bids to acquire broadcast rights. You manage and negotiate all incoming proposals within the Dealroom.

​
Receiving an Offer

When an enterprise agency submits a bid:
  1. You receive a high-priority push notification and in-app alert.
  2. Open the notification to navigate directly to the View Offer dashboard for that specific scoop.
  3. The dashboard details the bidding organisation, offer amount in GBP (£), licence type, and the live expiration countdown timer (configured by the newsroom between 3 minutes and 1 hour).

​
Commercial Bidding Bounds

All commercial offers and counter-proposals operate within strict platform limits:

Responding to an Offer

You have three options for every incoming offer before the countdown timer expires:

​
1. Accept the Offer

  • Tap Accept Offer.
  • The platform prompts for your biometric or PIN confirmation.
  • Smart Escrow instantly completes settlement:
    • The locked funds transfer to your connected Stripe account.
    • A Digital Deed is anchored on the Base layer-2 blockchain.
    • High-resolution broadcast media unlocks for the newsroom.

​
2. Submit a Counter-Offer

  • Tap Counter Offer and enter your proposed price (between £5.00 and £1,000,000.00).
  • The newsroom editor receives an instant update in their terminal desk with your proposed terms.

​
3. Decline the Offer

  • Tap Decline. The locked escrow funds return immediately to the newsroom, and your scoop remains available on the open marketplace for other buyers.
