This was also one of my problem

You guys need to use cloaking. Using cloakin is against their TOS so you won't stay compliant with their policies but no one cares so long as your ads can stay live. Thats what matters

What was your niche?

Keep pages clean and claims realistic, Google hates anything shady.

Exactly that, if there is no certificate you need to acquire for the niche plus the niche is also allowed. Then it's the landing page, stop making shady landing pages.

The most common preventable mistake is unsubstantiated claims (e.g., "best," "#1") and misleading urgency ("limited time"). Use clear, accurate ad copy that exactly matches your landing page content. Always pre-check your final URL and landing page against the Google Ads Policy Center before launching, as disapprovals often stem from page content, not the ad itself.

As everyone said. Cloak, and/or learn which keywords/copy on the ads or site itself are agitating it. If you're not cloaking, experiment with a white site to get ads through first. Slowly add more in and see what topples it

Also found that sticking to Google's "E-E-A-T" by writing high-quality, "useful and helpful", non-AI slop helps reduce rejection rates. It's tedious and time-consuming, but the rejection rate is much lower

A lot.... but you know what, gurus have already answered it before me. "believe them" especially on BHW

avoid using too many capital letters or exclamation marks and make sure your landing page matches your ad copy exactly. If you are in a risky niche then use a good bridge page or you will get flagged fast.

are you using a bridge page or sending traffic direct to the offer?

I ran into this a few times. In most cases the issue wasn’t the ad copy itself but the landing page.

Depends on your niche and how your landing page is structured. For example the gambling niche without a proper license in EU or America is bound to get banned. Always use the proper keywords and have them match on your site as well and you'll avoid bans.

Using cloaking tools is against the platform’s policies. So the choice is simple: either keep getting your ads rejected, or break the rules by using cloaking just to get them approved.

bro just keep ur landing page clean with all legal links like privacy policy and avoid using 'guaranteed' or clickbait words in ad copy to stay safe.

Honestly it depends on two things first: what product you're promoting, and whether your ad account is already flagged as high risk.
I ran an actual experiment earlier this year where I built a landing page to promote a physical affiliate product, got it approved, and kept it running for 14 days clean. I documented the whole process on my blog.

From that experience, here's what I found actually matters for avoiding disapprovals. Beyond picking a product Google allows and keeping your account in good standing, your landing page needs to cover these basics:

1. Make sure your page has enough content. Thin pages get flagged fast, stuff like bridge pages that exist just to push traffic through. From my experience, 500+ words on the landing page is a solid baseline.
2. Keep your copy neutral. No pricing, no aggressive ad language, no claims like "number one" or "best" or "100% effective", and definitely no medical promises.
3. Your landing page needs a Privacy Policy, a Contact page, and an affiliate disclosure, either as separate pages or clearly linked in the footer.
4. The Final URL in your campaign cannot auto redirect. This one got me before and it will get you every time.

Those are the big ones. There are more details beyond these but nothing hits as hard as getting these four wrong.

What field are you advertising in?

 

[ShadowROI]

Most of the time it's landing page causing the issue, not the ad itself. even small claims or redirects cam trigger reviews fast.

One thing helped me was keep everything simple that was Check your ad copy and landing page carefully, and dont use strong claims or risky words and Also read the policy before submit the ad because Sometimes small changes make big difference.
