Google allowing gambling advertisement in the US
We can say that Google is generally gambling-friendly and permits related advertisements in 30 different countries, but not the United States. At least, up until now.
However, it was recently announced that Google will expand the range of online casino advertisements in about 9 different states. Notably, in June, they have already launched several ads across Jersey, Nevada, and West Virginia on a trial basis. But now Google also signed an agreement with Indiana, Iowa, Montana, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island.
Gambling advertisement in 2020
Google hasnât yet announced an exact date of when the project will be officially launched. But many believe that it should happen at any time at the beginning of 2020.
Another mystery circles around whether online poker advertisements will also be included in the list of permitted gambling areas.
Regulatory requirements and restrictions
Google has imposed several regulatory conditions that include age verification and âthe presence of responsible gambling messaging.â
If a gambling business trying to apply for licensing will fail any of the requirements, it will be restricted from any operation in the United States.
The regulatory hurdle, however, is not the only thing online casinos should be worried about. As cultural resistance is still quite high in certain parts of the country, thus it can give casinos a hard minute to find ad platforms that would be eager to post their advertisement.
A director of group acquisition marketing at Better Collective, Gavin Moore, said:
âThis move for unblocking online casino ads in 2020 clearly establishes that Google is looking to take full advantage of the growing industry in the U.S.â
Moore also added:
âAwareness really is the keyword here. Google is giving digital betting operators and affiliates a huge potential reach and opportunity to get their brands in front of qualified, interested users.â
Breaking down channels of influence
Google Ads
Specialists believe that pay-per-click strategy wonât really work in this case, as those searching for online gaming websites already have an intention and know exactly what they are looking for.
Gavin Moore commented on this:
âIt will prove crucial as an acquisition channel, as it gives an edge to digitally savvy operators and affiliates, as they will have the opportunity to fill the need of these searchers with their sportsbook, casino, or affiliate site. It gives advertisers the chance to place themselves front and center when a player is most likely to start playing online, and ultimately, be there at the micro-moment when it counts and determines where that player will go on to play online.â
YouTube
Meanwhile, YouTube, operated by Google, would be a perfect place for affiliates to drive brand awareness and recognition among gamblers.
âSo advertisers have the opportunity to spend huge budgets to put their ads in front of potential new customers who fit the bill, who are 21-plus, live in the legal states, and have shown an interest in gambling with their previous online behavior,â – mentioned Moore.
Google Display Network
According to Mr. Moore, that, again, would be the most prominent and easy way for operators and gambling websites to put a message right in front of their target audience.
Admob
This is a platform that will specifically allow developers to drive traffic to their mobile apps. Thus, it will be another great customer acquisition channel for operators and affiliates out there.
