Make up for it

There is an exchange of comments on Twitter:

Kerry Flynn:
Wait guys remember when blew up Mark Zuckerberg's satellite https://t.co/5kJJUUlGkh

Elon Musk:
"Yeah, my fault for being an idiot. We did give them a free launch to make up for it and I think they had some insurance."

------------------------------------

My question is: does We did give them a free launch to make up for it mean that Mark Zuckerberg didn't have to pay for sending his satellite into orbit (with Mr Musk's rocket) and that the launching of the satellite for free should compensate for the loss of money spent on constructing the destroyed satellite?
