Advertising e-cigarettes (vapes) on Facebook is very difficult and almost completely prohibited under Meta's policies. I will explain this clearly, focusing on legal aspects, policies, and risks, NOT providing instructions on how to circumvent the rules or run illegal advertisements.
1. Facebook prohibits advertising e-cigarette products.
2. Accounts and Fanpages are easily subject to permanent suspension/restriction.
However, if you know how to operate correctly, everything can still work. Some of our clients are advertising e-cigarettes/cannabis; they are from Thailand, and all their campaigns are working very well.

Vape ads can be tricky on Facebook due to strict policies, but if you target the right audience and use creative workarounds (like focusing on lifestyle vs. the product itself), it can work! Just keep an eye on compliance.

Nice results on the casino side. Vaping can be profitable, but it’s much stricter in terms of compliance and approvals. Most issues come from policy enforcement and account risk, so tread carefully and test small. Hopefully someone with direct experience can share more.

the vaping industry is risky because fb has classified it as a restricted product category. if you want to try it, you should focus on indirect educational or lifestyle content, making sure to follow the policies to avoid account restrictions.

Meta is very strict with e-cigarette campaigns, but you can use masking techniques and potentially use advertising accounts with a spending history.

Vape-related content is heavily restricted on Meta. If you choose to work in this area, it’s important to stick to fully compliant approaches such as educational or awareness-based messaging, with proper age restrictions. Direct promotional advertising is generally not permitted under current policies.

Advertising e-cigarettes is also prohibited, similar to gambling. If you’re able to run gambling ads, you can certainly run other restricted products as well.
I'd like to advertise sex toys through Mate and Google. I'm willing to pay if you have a solution.

It’s very difficult to run ads for this product. However, if you have experience, you may know how to conceal the content so the ads can get approved.

If you proceed, expect higher account churn and plan strong compliance and backups.

Vape ads on Facebook are mostly banned. Success needs informational content, lead-gen funnels, and careful geo-targeting, or using alternative platforms instead.

Vape/e-cig ads are basically a no on Meta (you’ll get blocks fast). Gambling can work only if you’re licensed/authorized and use 18+ targeting. If it’s not fully compliant, I’d skip vape.
I've seen my competitors run such ads. they're making so much money. Thing is, there is a way but I can't do it. Does anyone know how cloaking works?
