The Washington Post's US-publisher help says linking an existing home-delivery subscription to an online account provides unlimited digital access. Explain the activation route when advertising that bundle. A digital account connection does not establish that the campaign sold a new print subscription.

The Washington Post's US-publisher help requires a home-delivery Subscription ID when an account is not already linked. Qualify whether the destination activates an existing subscription or accepts a new order. Supplying an existing account identifier is not evidence of a newly purchased delivery subscription.

The Washington Post's US-publisher help says temporarily suspending delivery does not credit or extend the subscription, while digital access continues. Keep delivery holds separate from cancellations and refunds in campaign retention reporting. A stopped physical delivery is not enough to classify the subscription outcome.

The Washington Post's US-publisher help lists bill payment, vacation stops and carrier tips as management actions after account linking.
