Meta Clarifies (But Doesn’t Change) Online Gambling Ad Policy
Facebook changed its online gambling advertisement rules. Facebook's parent company, Meta, requires written permission from Facebook’s parent to run ads promoting online betting.
Meta clarifies its policy on online gambling ads. Physical casino ads don't require written permission. State and government lotteries are allowed to run ads, as long as the advertiser is responsible for running the lottery. Free-to-play game ads are also allowed without written consent.
Meta clarifies its gambling advertising policy. It doesn't change the current policy, but it does address the issue of too many sports betting ads. Twitter's policy is more vague. Some users were frustrated with the volume of ads during Maryland's mobile launch. Apple recently removed gambling ads from its App Store. The company is trying to be proactive about setting standards in the space. However, there's still work left to please customers frustrated by the overabundance of advertisements.
