During the action locking period, Target Creator is able to reverse actions and, therefore, change your payout for an action. Once the action locking date arrives (this can be found in the Under Contract report), no more changes can be made to that action and it will then lock. According to Target Creator’s Master Agreement, the reversal of performance advertising actions is decided by Target Creator and is governed by a maximum reversal percentage of 100%.
