Frequently asked questions

What does each rooftop’s package include?

Each rooftop subscribes to one package: Core, Plus or Premium. Plus includes everything in Core, and Premium includes everything in Plus, so Premium covers everything in Axion except the Agency Hub. Individual features can be added to a package a la carte.

Can I choose which two ad platforms come with Plus?

Yes. Plus includes self-service management of any two of Google Ads, Facebook and Instagram, ChatGPT ads and Microsoft Ads. To manage more, add another platform for $99/mo each, or choose Premium, which includes all four. Core can add ad platforms the same way, at $99/mo per platform.

How do media buying fees work?

Media buying is available for any ad platform on every package. It is billed as a percentage of ad spend, and the rate depends on your package: 12% on Core, 10% on Plus and 8% on Premium. Stores on Managed Marketing pay half that rate: 6% on Core, 5% on Plus and 4% on Premium.

Does a dealer group need a package for each store?

Yes. Packages are priced per rooftop, so each store in the group has its own package, and stores in a group can be on different packages, such as Core at one store and Premium at another. Dealer group rollups are included from Core up.

What does an agency need to use the Agency Hub?

Contact us for Agency Hub pricing. Each client rooftop the agency manages in Axion needs at least the Core package.
