When ad content is good, everyone will love it!

The thing that sets our ad content apart from other advertising platforms is the quality of the ads.

To make this difference, we provide guidelines for you to understand what ads are allowed to be promoted on our platform. You should be aware that IgniterAds reserves the right to control, approve or reject any advertisement for any reason at our sole discretion, even after post-launch if we find the content unsatisfactory at the second inspection.

Also, both advertisers and publishers can choose to block ads that they do not feel resonate with their brands or site content.

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to our friendly Support team.

Hopefully, your ad will be distributed on our platform soon!
