In a move aimed at refining its advertising policies, Google recently announced updates to its crypto ads policy, specifically targeting Cryptocurrency Coin Trusts.
The Google’s New Certification Demands
These changes, set to take effect on January 29, 2024, aim to provide users with more reliable information and protect them from potential risks associated with cryptocurrency investments. The updated policy specifically targets advertisers offering Cryptocurrency Coin Trusts in the United States.
To run the crypto ads for these products, advertisers must now adhere to specific requirements and obtain certification from Google. This certification process is designed to ensure that advertisers meet certain standards, enhancing the overall quality and trustworthiness of cryptocurrency-related advertisements on the platform.
According to the announcement, advertisers must ensure that their Cryptocurrency Coin Trusts do not have any issues and that their operations comply with Google’s standards for financial products. Additionally, the certification process will likely include a positive checkmark icon, indicating that the advertiser has met Google’s requirements and is approved to run crypto ads for Cryptocurrency Coin Trusts.
While the changes are specific to the United States, Google reminds advertisers that they are expected to comply with local laws in any region where their ads are targeted. This ensures a global policy application, and all accounts advertising Cryptocurrency Coin Trusts will be subject to these regulations.
