  • Ingestion
  • Evaluation
  • Transactions on the Narrative Marketplace or private transactions
  • Forecasting
  • Order management
PAYG waiver for data transactions: Pay-as-you-go Processing Fees are waived for activity directly supporting data transactions where you are offering data to be licensed or evaluated by a third-party, provided that the transaction (i) occurs or is expected to occur within 90 days of such activity, and (ii) is subject to Transaction Services Fees.

​
