I can't find any mention of crush offers not being allowed on the Big G but I read in one of the threads that it is against their compliant policy.

If it's true does it mean it stands for both the search and content networks?

Is the penalty a slap or a ban to the account?

Can anyone confirm?

Thanks!
 


It's allowed as long as the landing page follows the below guidelines.
Mobile content services ads are restricted. We allow the advertisement of mobile content services only upon certain conditions noted below. Mobile content services include, but are not limited to, sites that promote downloading ringtones, wallpaper, or text messages for predictions, love life advice, news, personality quizzes, or other entertainment services. We allow the advertisement of mobile content services only when the promoted website clearly and accurately displays the pricing. If your site promotes mobile content services and requires users to submit personal information, your site must prominently display the price and billing interval (such as per week or once per month) on the page where users first enter personal information (such as a name or phone number). If users sign up to your service by transmitting a code by text message, the price and billing interval must be clearly and prominently displayed beside the code. If your service is a subscription, you must provide a prominent opt-in checkbox or other clear mechanism indicating that the user knowingly accepts the price and subscription service. This should be on the first page users enter personal data, and the user should not be able to proceed without opting in. All of the items above should be located in a prominent place on your webpage and should be easy to find, read, and understand.
 
it's so (not)amusing how people can't figure out how to make their "mobile content" pages google compliant. this industry is seriously skewing my view of humanity.
