FAQ: Editing a Deriv P2P Ad
Can I edit an ad while it has an active order? Some fields may be locked while an order is in progress, so it’s best to wait until any active orders are complete before making major changes.
Will editing my ad affect its position in the listing? Ad ordering is typically based on rate and other factors, so changing your rate can affect where your ad appears relative to others.
Can I change an ad from Buy to Sell? No, you’ll generally need to create a new ad for the opposite type rather than converting an existing one.
How often can I edit my ad? There’s usually no strict limit, so you can adjust it as often as needed to stay competitive.
