Review Guide
This guide provides information on the ad review process for Kakao Global Display Ads.
1. Review Target
All ad creatives registered through Kakao Global DSP must undergo review. The review process proceeds regardless of Ad Cash balance.
2. Review Scope
Ad review checks whether the advertiser’s industry, site, and all elements that make up the ad creative (e.g., connection screens, images, videos, text) comply with the Ad Review Guide. Ad serving may be restricted if any content violates the Ad Review Guide.
3. Review Timeframe
Ad reviews are conducted based on Korean business days and usually take about 1 to 2 days. Reviewing may take longer if multiple duplicate ad creatives are registered. Ad serving may also be restricted according to Kakao’s internal standards.
4. Review Results/Status
You can check the ad review result after logging into Kakao Global DSP via the menu below.
