A free listing. One optional extra.
Start with a free listing and Facebook Page post. If you want more local exposure, add a paid campaign afterwards.
Your dog’s website listing, private sighting reports, a Facebook Page post and our funded 1,000 reach guarantee.
Help more people nearby recognise your dog.
A normal post relies on shares and the platform’s unpaid recommendations. Paid ads let us pay Facebook and Instagram to show your dog’s photo to people around the last-seen area—even if they don’t follow our Page or belong to your groups.

We already fund boosting for your free 1,000 reach starter. An upgrade adds more advertising budget. Larger campaigns can reach up to 200,000 people where the local audience and budget allow.

Add your dog first, then choose an upgrade in your dashboard. No payment at registration.
Paid upgrades are refundable before the paid ads go live. Once live, funds are committed and non-refundable. Refund policy.
How is reach estimated?
Our package estimates are 3,000–5,000 people for the 20 option, 7,500–12,500 for 50, and 20,000–25,000 for 100. These are planning ranges for additional paid reach, not guaranteed results or a Meta forecast for your area.
Actual reach may fall outside this range. Local audience size, timing and ad costs matter. The free starter is separate; some people may see both campaigns.
More about reach and targeting ↗Before you choose advertising
Why add advertising if I have already shared everywhere?
A normal post relies on shares, followers and the platform’s unpaid recommendations. It can stall with a small audience, even when the information matters. Paid advertising pays Facebook and Instagram to show your dog’s photo to a selected audience around the last-seen area, including people who do not follow our Page or belong to your groups. That is what the ad spend buys: more opportunities for someone nearby to recognise your dog. Organic posts can also spread widely, so there is no fixed hundreds-or-thousands ceiling. Keep using groups, posters and your other search efforts too.
What are the upgrade options, and where does my money go?
Choose a total payment of 20, 50 or 100 in GBP, USD, EUR, AUD or NZD. You pay us once. We pay 70%—14, 35 or 70—directly to Meta, the company behind Facebook and Instagram, as advertising spend while your ads run. That money buys distribution of your dog’s ad. The remaining 30%—6, 15 or 30—is our fee for setup, management and reporting. These are the same local price points in each currency, not exchange-rate equivalents. The currency and full split are shown before payment.
How much extra reach or radius does each price buy?
Estimated additional paid reach is 3,000–5,000 people for the 20 option, 7,500–12,500 for 50, and 20,000–25,000 for 100. These package planning ranges apply to the displayed options in each supported currency. They are not guaranteed results, a measured average or a Meta forecast for your location. Actual reach can fall outside the range. There is no fixed people-per-dollar or kilometre-per-package promise. Reach depends on the available audience, area, timing and advertising costs. The campaign plan shows the proposed targeting and any available estimate separately from actual results. A bigger budget does not necessarily mean a wider radius.
Does an upgrade pay for the free starter?
No. We already fund the free starter’s boosting towards its 1,000 reach guarantee; it is not limited to organic posting. Your upgrade adds advertising funds to reach further and does not replace our starter commitment. The report separates the free starter from your purchased advertising so you can see what your money added.
Will the 100 option reach 200,000 people?
Paying for distribution makes it possible to reach well beyond the audience of an ordinary post. With sufficient advertising budget and a large enough local audience, an expanded campaign may reach 100,000–200,000 people. That is not the expected or guaranteed result of the 100 option. Contact us for a larger campaign plan and estimate; the small upgrade options have their own illustrative ranges.
What happens after I pay?
First, your payment must be confirmed. We then prepare the campaign and submit the ad for Meta’s review. Your dashboard distinguishes preparation, review and actual delivery. A payment receipt or preview alone does not mean the ad is running.
Is this a subscription or an automatic top-up?
No. Each upgrade is a one-off payment that you choose. We do not automatically charge you again when the budget runs out. You can keep using your listing and reading sightings without buying more advertising.
Can I get a refund after paying?
For a new owner-app upgrade, you can request a full refund after payment and before that paid campaign goes live. Once the paid ads are live, your payment is committed and non-refundable, including any ad funds not yet spent if the campaign stops early. A free starter already running does not remove the pre-launch refund option for a separate paid upgrade. Contact conor@finddogsfast.com with your listing link. Earlier orders retain their original terms, and your applicable consumer rights are unaffected.
Do I need Facebook or a separate app?
No. You can use Find Dogs Fast in your phone’s browser. We publish and manage the Facebook and Instagram advertising through our account. You do not need to give us your Facebook password or install an app.
