Boost ads
Pay for a boost so your cars move up to the top spots of the catalog for 7 days.
Boosting puts your ad in the top spots of the catalog for 7 days. It's a one-time payment per ad, separate from your plan.

«La posición exacta rota entre los anuncios impulsados, así que no podemos apartarte el primer lugar fijo.» ("The exact position rotates among boosted ads, so we can't reserve a fixed first spot for you.")
Before you start
- You need an advertiser account.
- Only the owner or an administrator who handles the account's payments can pay for the boost. If you don't have that permission, the «Impulsar» ("Boost") button doesn't appear in your inventory.
- From your inventory you can only boost cars that are Publicado. Right after creating a car you can also boost it even if it's still En revisión.
- You see the price per boost in the window before you pay. It depends on what's current at that moment.
- Payment is made on the Stripe payment page.
Boost from your inventory
Open the window
In PanelInventario ("Panel > Inventory") tap «Impulsar». If you already selected cars, tap «Impulsar (3)» ("Boost (3)"), with the number of cars, and they arrive already checked.
Choose the cars
In «Impulsar publicaciones» ("Boost ads") check the cars, or use «Seleccionar todas» ("Select all"). You can boost up to 20 in a single payment; if you have more, the checkbox says «Seleccionar las primeras 20» ("Select the first 20").
Check the summary
At the bottom you see «Publicaciones» ("Ads"), «Precio por impulso» ("Price per boost"), «Duración» ("Duration"), and «Total».
Pay
Tap the «Pagar» ("Pay") button with the total. You'll see «Abriendo pago…» ("Opening payment…") and go to the payment page.
Cars that already have an active boost appear at the end, without a checkbox, with «Impulsada hasta el» ("Boosted until") and the date. If all of them have one, you see «Todas tus publicaciones ya están impulsadas.» ("All your ads are already boosted.").
Boost right after publishing
- Wizard. On the final screen, «¿Quieres salir en las primeras posiciones?» ("Want to show up in the top spots?") → «Sí, impulsar mi anuncio» ("Yes, boost my ad").
- Panel form. If the car stayed in review, the result card shows «¿Quieres más visibilidad?» ("Want more visibility?") → «Impulsar esta publicación» ("Boost this ad"), with «Abriendo pago...» ("Opening payment...") while the payment page opens.
What happens after you pay
When you paid from your inventory, you go back to it and see a window:
- «Tu publicación quedó impulsada» ("Your ad is boosted") (or «3 publicaciones quedaron impulsadas» ("3 ads are boosted")): «Ya aparecen en los primeros lugares del catálogo.» ("They now appear in the top spots of the catalog."). Each car says «Impulsada hasta el» with the day and time. Tap a car to open it, or «Listo» ("Done").
- «Recibimos tu pago» ("We received your payment"): «El cobro quedó registrado; en unos segundos verás el impulso en tus publicaciones.» ("The charge was recorded; in a few seconds you'll see the boost on your ads.").
- «Estamos confirmando tu pago» ("We're confirming your payment"): «Stripe aún no nos confirma el cobro. En cuanto llegue, el impulso se activa solo.» ("Stripe hasn't confirmed the charge yet. As soon as it does, the boost turns on by itself."). Tap «Revisar de nuevo» ("Check again") in a moment. Don't pay again.
When you paid from the screen of a newly created car, you go back to its workspace with the notice «Listo, tu compra ya está activa.» ("Done, your purchase is now active.") or «Estamos confirmando tu pago. Se activa solo en cuanto Stripe lo confirme; no vuelvas a pagar.» ("We're confirming your payment. It turns on by itself as soon as Stripe confirms it; don't pay again.").
The boost lasts 7 days from when it's activated. When it ends, the car stays published and goes back to its normal place in the catalog.
The usual case
Something doesn't work the first time
The payment takes a while to confirm
You see «Estamos confirmando tu pago». Wait and tap «Revisar de nuevo». The boost turns on by itself as soon as the charge is confirmed.
Worst case
You cancel on the payment page
You come back with no charge and no boost. You can try again whenever you want.
Special case
A car already has a boost
It can't be checked until its current boost ends. It appears with «Impulsada hasta el» and the date.
