Q: Can non-game products be monetized using Meta's rewarded videos?​

No, developers need to apply to the Meta AM, and the review threshold is high.

Q: Meta's PID is suddenly not filled, what to do next?​

When it is found that the original normal ad placement suddenly drops significantly, such as a sudden drop in filling, CPM etc., you can first check whether the Meta account has received a violation notification, find the direction of investigation, and quickly locate the problem.

Check out at Meta Platform：

  • Check if there is a warning in the account notification center, please confirm the warning content;

  • Check the color of the ad placement status, green is normal, yellow is abnormal, you need to check the warning content further;

  • Use "Quality Check" to see the quality of the ad (green-pass, yellow-dangerous, red-fail). For unqualified placements, you can click the Insights page to view the specific reasons that affect filling.

Please locate the specific violation content according to the specific reasons, and then file an appeal against the placement after solving the problem on each placement.

Note: Violations at multiple ad spaces will result in account bans.

Note: If the IOS app is created normally and the online link has been filled in on Audience Network, but there is still no fill, you can check whether the product logo and name at Meta are abnormal. If the product name is "—", you can contact Meta online customer service or Meta AM to add whitelist.

Q: What should I do after an app or ad space is banned by Meta?​

  1. Check whether you have received an alarm email, please modify your app according to the email, and file an appeal.

  2. If the content of your appeal email is unclear, or the app is still blocked after modification, please contact customer support on the official website:

Meta common alarm content and causes：

  • Invalid traffic: Meta is highly sensitive to test traffic. Frequent testing and clicking on test ads will increase the risk of being judged as traffic cheating, resulting in traffic throttling and even account bans.

  • Ad integration quality issues: Violations can occur for a variety of reasons, such as the content of the app, the way ads are integrated, or third-party software integrated. Make sure your ads are integrated in a way that drives quality traffic.
