Ad Moderation

Media buying

The review process a traffic source runs on your ads, landing pages, and account to decide whether they pass policy before or after going live. Moderation can be automated, manual, or both, and it's the gatekeeper that bans creatives, disapproves offers, and kills accounts in gray verticals. Media buyers spend heavily on cloaking and white pages specifically to slip past it.

Example

A gambling creative getting disapproved during Facebook's ad moderation for policy violation.
