Ads Policy

// LAST_UPDATED Sep 2026

Motivation.GG runs a small native ad surface. Every campaign is human-reviewed before it goes live. The rules are short and we hold to them.

// WHAT_WE_ACCEPT

Brands, products, courses, books, gear, events
SaaS, apps, newsletters, podcasts
Coaching + community sponsorships
Anything tonally aligned with motivation, focus, growth, fitness, faith

// WHAT_WE_REJECT

Adult, sexual, or suggestive content
Gambling, betting, lotteries, get-rich-quick
Weapons, drugs, tobacco, vaping
Crypto pump schemes, ICOs, leveraged trading signals
Malware, scareware, fake virus warnings, fake "system" UI
Auto-redirect, auto-download, deceptive download buttons
Hate, harassment, political attack ads
Anything that misrepresents itself or its destination

// CREATIVE_REQUIREMENTS

PNG, JPG, WebP, or animated GIF
Max 200 KB per file (we re-encode for serve)
No flashing strobe (3+ flashes/sec) — accessibility
Click-through must land where the creative claims
HTML snippets are accepted but scripts are stripped

We support all 17 IAB standard sizes. Pick what fits your creative — we'll surface it on the matching slot.

// HOW_WE_BILL

Pay total budget up front (Card / PayPal / Crypto)
Spend is metered against verified human impressions only
Hourly pacing prevents budget burn early in the day
Frequency cap of 8 impressions/user/day protects CTR

// REFUND_POLICY

Declined campaigns: full refund
Cancel before approval: full refund
Cancel mid-flight: refund of unspent budget
Refunds return to the original payment method within 5–10 business days

// DISCLOSURE

Every served creative is labeled Ad in compliance with the FTC's Endorsement Guides. We do not run native sponcon disguised as editorial content on this surface — that's a separate program with its own labeling.

// PRIVACY

We do not set tracking cookies for ads. Impressions are deduplicated by a salted hash of the visitor's IP, never the raw IP. We don't share buyer-collected data with networks because there are no networks — this is a first-party serve.
