Your management rate drops as your advertising grows. Tiers reset at the start of each calendar month and apply to your total monthly ad spend, not to each campaign separately.

Worked examples
First $100 @ 15% = $15 · management $15
First $500 @ 15% = $75 · management $75
First $1,000 @ 15% = $150 · management $150
First $1,000 @ 15% = $150 · additional $1,500 @ 10% = $150 · management $300
First $1,000 @ 15% = $150 · additional $4,000 @ 10% = $400 · management $550
Reaching $1,000 doesn't discount your earlier spend — the first $1,000 each month is always billed at 15%, and only the spend above it is billed at 10%. If you've already spent $800 this month and add a $500 campaign, the next $200 is billed at 15% ($30) and the remaining $300 at 10% ($30) — $60 of management, not $75.
