Moderation timings

DAO.AD moderation operates 24/7, so campaigns and creatives can be submitted at any time.

During business hours, moderation usually takes 10-15 minutes, depending on the creative and campaign details.

Submissions made outside business hours may take longer to review.

Moderation time may also vary depending on:

  • the type of campaign and creative;
  • the complexity of the offer;
  • whether additional information or clarification is required;
  • the current moderation workload.
After submission

Once submitted, your campaign or creative is reviewed by the DAO.AD moderation team.

The moderation team may:

  • Approve the campaign or creative;
  • Reject it with a reason or comment;
  • Request changes or additional information.

If your campaign is rejected, check the moderation comment first. It usually explains what needs to be changed before resubmission.
