Microsoft Advertising has rolled out several policy updates across food, crypto, finance, and gambling categories.
What changed this month:
- Nudity & Suggestive Content moved out of Media Formats → now a standalone restricted policy.
- Crypto wallets are now allowed in India & Japan (for advertisers meeting compliance criteria).
- CFD advertising allowed in Germany & the UK under strict conditions.
- US gambling pilots expanded → managed affiliate advertisers allowed in sports betting & casino tests.
These updates continue Microsoft’s shift toward more regulated but expanded access for advertisers across high-risk verticals.
