All ads are served through Google DoubleClick for Publishers. Most third party tags are also accepted and will be tested. Some HTML5 ads can be tested and served but not guaranteed, and are best provided as third-party creative ad tags served from Google DoubleClick Studio + Creative Solutions or other third-party provider. |

*HTML5 Ads – HTML5 ads are in beta and can be tested before serving. We accept HTML5 creative bundles (.zip file) created from Adobe Edge, Google Web Designer and Tumult Hype. Other HTML5 creative types could fail or create unexpected problems with the creative. We recommend to carefully inspect all creatives (Edge, Hype, GWD or otherwise) before submitting. Make sure that your creative .ZIP bundle doesn't contain unsupported assets (e.g. SVG, WebFonts, video files), as the unsupported assets will be discarded and the uploaded creative might have rendering issues. We also accept most third-party ad tags served from Google DoubleClick Studio + Creative Solutions or other third-party providers. See http://www.iab.com/guidelines/html5-for-digital-advertising-guidance-for-ad-designers-creative-technologists/ for additional designer guidelines. **Flash Ads – Flash ads are no longer supported or uploaded effective January 2, 2017. |
