Questions

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The checks run inside your browser. Your banners and videos never leave your device.

Why is my banner rejected when the size is right?

The most common reason is file weight: many ad servers and Google Display reject image ads over 150 KB. Use our ad image resizer to make lighter versions.

Can it check the video codec and frame rate?

Browsers don’t reveal the codec or frame rate, so we check what can be measured: size, length, shape, file weight and approximate bitrate. Our ad tag tester shows full details for VAST tags.

What about HTML5 banners?

Test HTML5 and MRAID banners with our ad tag tester, which runs the creative in a sealed frame.
