There are two stages our print team need to follow before articles are available in Discover. The two stages are acquisition and processing.

Acquisition is the time and steps of acquiring the actual magazine, can involve picking up at newsstands or shipments depending on the publication on the magazine (its priority) and the location.

Processing is once the magazine has arrived, it gets sliced, scanned and then goes through the Launchmetrics qualification process (Publication name, editor, stylist, photographer, MIV, etc.)

Below you will find our average print timings divided by country and priority. To have visibility on  Priority 1 titles please click here.

For larger magazines, the processing phase may take several days. Clippings from the same magazine can be added to Discover on different days, as the team processes the magazine gradually. Therefore, it is normal to find pages from the same issue added with a few days' delay.
