TikTok ads keep getting rejected in gambling niche, need help

try with aged accounts, build wh content first, try to make it as much as original
 
Hi everyone,

I’m new to TikTok Ads and black hat advertising, so please excuse any beginner questions.
I’m also using ChatGPT to translate, so sorry if anything sounds a bit unnatural.

I’m currently testing gambling / sweepstakes offers on TikTok, but I’m having trouble keeping accounts and ads stable.

My current setup:

New TikTok Ads account
Domain with a landing page
White page first, then redirect to the offer
Creatives are clean (no gambling terms, no money claims, no aggressive CTA)

What usually happens:

Ads get approved
They spend a small amount ($5–$10)
After a few hours, ads get rejected or the account goes into review
In one case, the ad account was banned

I’m confused because I often see people say this niche still works well on TikTok, but my experience has been the opposite so far.

I’d like to understand:

Is cloaking basically required now for this niche?

Is TikTok stricter with new ad accounts than before?

Could the landing page still be triggering flags even with a white page?

I’m only testing with small budgets at the moment, but I can’t keep campaigns running long enough to optimize.

If anyone has experience with this niche on TikTok, I’d really appreciate any advice, even small pointers.

Thanks in advance, and sorry again if my wording sounds a bit off.
Cloaking is definitely required to run gambling ads. Tik Tok IS stricter than before. I suggest buying an aged, stable account and trying to run your ads from there.
 
Yes, it's normal to have these kind of problems in gambling niches. You need a reliable cloaking setup.
 
TikTok’s review process for new accounts is indeed stricter, and gambling is considered a prohibited industry on TikTok. This is likely the main reason why your campaigns are not able to run.

Generally speaking, I would suggest using an older account, preferably one with some spending history. Some advertisers also try using cloaking, but in our experience, this alone is not enough. There is still a high risk of suspension. It is also important to adjust the creatives so they do not appear to be related to gambling.

Overall, if your goal is to scale and generate significant spend on TikTok with this type of offer, it can be quite challenging.

This is a high-risk niche, no way you can expect any output on a new tiktok account. A couple of reports from users will automatically trigger a review.
 
A brand-new ad account trying to run gambling ads will be flagged immediately for suspicious behavior
