Why should I support Adbusters?

Adbusters is one of a handful of magazines in the world that receives zero funding from advertising (print or online), corporate sponsorship or government/foundation grants. We are entirely reader-supported, allowing us to remain fiercely independent in what we do and say. We operate as a non-profit organization, which means that every dollar we raise through the sales of our magazines and other merchandise goes directly back into our campaigns and the production of the magazine. When you subscribe to Adbusters, you are joining a network of artists and activists committed to speaking truth to power around the world.

What is Adbusters' refund policy?

As a non-profit, Adbusters is unfortunately unable to take responsibility for issues lost or damaged by the postal service. At this time, we are also unable to refund cancelled subscriptions. We appreciate your understanding.
