FAQs

Q: Will Chicory slow down my site or impact my Core Web Vitals scores? 

A: No, Chicory’s lightweight tech loads asynchronously to avoid negatively impacting page load speed and is optimized according to Google’s standards to ensure minimal impact to your Core Web Vitals scores.


Q: Can I opt-out of including Chicory on specific posts?

A: Yes, you can opt-out specific recipes on your site from featuring Chicory advertising. To do so, please reach out to publishers@chicory.co.


Q: I installed Chicory but am not seeing the Shoppable Recipe button or in-recipe ads appear on my site yet. Why is this?

A: Chicory’s technology is triggered by site traffic and will appear when a site visitor lands on a recipe. All of your recipes will enter Chicory’s system as users visit those pages. Please note, it may take some time for all of your recipes to import. This process may take up to an hour after you first view the recipe. 


Q: I'm an international content creator. Can I work with Chicory?

A: Yes! Chicory works with international bloggers who have a readership within the United States. However, our retailer integrations only deliver within the United States and our in-recipe ads only display within US zip codes.


Q: I work with an ad network already. Am I able to activate Chicory?

A: Yes! Many creators that work with Chicory are also affiliated with other ad networks. In fact, we have direct partnerships with Mediavine and SHE Media Collective. Mediavine creators can enable Chicory directly within their Mediavine dashboard. SHE Media creators will have Chicory installed on their site upon joining their ad network.


Q: What are the details of your payment policy?

A: Content creators who work with Chicory directly will be paid in full, every month, on a net-60 schedule. In order to receive a payment, the email associated with your PayPal account must be entered into your Chicory dashboard in the My Account tab. All payments will be sent out through PayPal unless otherwise discussed.


If you are a Mediavine blogger using Chicory, your payments will come via Mediavine, on Mediavine’s payment schedule. All questions regarding payments should be directed toward publishers@mediavine.com.
