Ad Moderation Explained: Statuses and Approval
To maintain a high-quality experience for all users on Jobicy, every new advertisement undergoes a moderation process. Understanding the different statuses will help you track your campaign’s progress.
Understanding Campaign Statuses
When you browse your Ads dashboard, you will notice a status indicator with a colored dot on each ad card:
- Pending Moderation (Yellow): Your ad has been submitted and is currently in our review queue. During this time, the “Launch” button is disabled.
- Running (Green): The ad has passed moderation and is actively being displayed to users.
- Draft / Paused (Gray): The ad is approved but is currently stopped. It is not spending any budget and is invisible to the public.
- Rejected (Red): The ad did not meet our advertising guidelines and cannot be published in its current form.
The Moderation Workflow
Once you click “Save Campaign” on a new ad, it automatically enters the Pending status. Our team reviews the text, image, and destination URL for compliance.
You don’t need to refresh your dashboard constantly; we will send an automated email notification directly to your registered email address as soon as a decision is made.
- If Approved, your ad will automatically transition to “Running”.
- If Rejected, the email will notify you of the decision.
Important: If your ad is rejected, the “Launch” button will remain disabled. You must click the Edit button, adjust your ad content to comply with our guidelines, and save it again to resubmit it for a fresh review.
