Frequently asked questions

Press release distribution to more than 5,000 news outlets. Your release goes out instantly, you get a report of where it ran, and prices start at $5. We also syndicate news through our partner networks, offer API and white-label options for agencies, resellers, and platforms, and give journalists free access to releases, verified sources, and custom newsfeeds.

Choose Get started to create an account, or Log in if you already have one. Each begins with a short form on this site, checked in your browser, and then continues to our partner platform, where accounts, orders, and reports are managed. These two forms do not send or store your details, and this website cannot open historical Acquire Media accounts.

Distribution places your release on news sites and gives you a report of where it ran. Whether a journalist writes an independent story is their decision. A relevant announcement with evidence and a reachable contact is easier for them to pick up.

Syndication is the delivery of one publisher’s content to many other sites, applications, or customers. A syndication service accepts the content, tags and normalizes it, and delivers it to each recipient in the format and by the method they asked for.

Use a guaranteed connection when you cannot miss a story, an API when your application needs to search or request news on demand, FTP when you want files on a schedule, and RSS when you need something working today. The digital delivery page compares them side by side.

Without consistent tags a feed can only be filtered by keyword, which misses stories and lets irrelevant ones through. A taxonomy of subjects, industries, places, and companies lets a recipient ask for exactly the news they need.

No. Syndication Suite, Content Shop, and AMPS were historical Acquire Media products and are no longer offered. Today we distribute press releases and syndicate news through our partners.
