Automatically waiving charges for Yelp Ads delivered in the second half of March (March 16-31).
Pausing scheduled Yelp Ads programs for the month of April (which will restart on May 1 automatically).
If you offer delivery or take-out, they will set up a $100 Yelp Ads campaign free of charge for the period of April 1-30.
You won’t have to pay for any other Yelp paid features or page upgrades that are active on your account from March 16-April 30. This will happen automatically for eligible businesses.
