Getting your ads approved in Ads Manager
Ad review is mostly automated and usually finishes within a day. Most disapprovals come from a handful of predictable issues — know them and your approval rate climbs.
The usual reasons ads get rejected
- Prohibited or restricted claims — health, financial or “before/after” promises.
- Personal-attribute language — addressing “you” by an implied condition or trait.
- Landing-page mismatch — the destination must match the ad and work on mobile.
- Low-quality or misleading creative — clickbait, fake UI, sensational imagery.
If an ad is disapproved
- Read the specific policy cited — it tells you the exact issue.
- Edit the ad to fix that issue rather than resubmitting unchanged.
- If you believe it’s wrong, request another review — but don’t spam appeals.
Tip: a pile of disapprovals on one account drags down its quality score. Fix the root cause instead of relaunching the same ad repeatedly.
