Campaign not approved — what to do

If your campaign was rejected by a moderator, don't panic. In most cases the issue can be fixed quickly and the campaign resubmitted for review.

Where to find the rejection reason
Open the rejected campaign — at the top of the page you'll see the moderator's comment with the specific reason for rejection.
Before resubmitting
Check the Platform and moderation rules page — it has the full list of prohibited categories and creative requirements.

Common rejection reasons

Campaign and change reviews

First distinguish rejection of an initial campaign submission from rejection of proposed changes. For an initial rejection, read the reason in campaign details and use the available correction path before resubmitting.

If changes to an existing campaign are rejected, its current terms remain in place until a new version is approved. Read the comment for the changes: rejection does not automatically cancel all previous terms.

The Edit action depends on status and permissions. Standard advertisers cannot edit running or paused campaigns; these changes are available to platform staff. If the required action is unavailable, contact support with the campaign ID and moderator comment.

When editing is available, correct the materials, description or conditions identified, then resubmit for review. Follow the status and any requests for information: submission does not mean automatic approval.

Moderation timelines

Review time depends on the campaign content and any clarifications needed. A fixed approval time is not guaranteed, including for resubmissions. The current stage appears in campaign details; contact support if it is unclear.
