Few things slow down a campaign like a rejected ad. For marketers running Google Ads, rejections can delay launches, eat up resources, and throw off performance metrics. It’s frustrating; and entirely avoidable.

At Cape, we hear this concern all the time. That’s why we’ve built proactive safeguards directly into our platform to help clients catch issues early, stay compliant, and launch with confidence. From design to deployment, Cape keeps your creatives ready for prime time on Google.

Here’s how:

1. Real-Time Warnings During Template Design

Errors often start at the source. Cape’s Template Designer spots potential compliance issues as you build. For instance, if someone uploads a 2000x2000 image (too large for Google Display) we’ll flag it right away and guide them to adjust. Catching these early prevents bigger issues later.

2. Built-In Optimization for Google Platforms

After you’ve created your template, Cape provides instant feedback on how well your ad will perform across Google’s ad surfaces. Our file size calculator shows which layers are using the most space, so you can make smart adjustments before exporting.

3. Smart Alerts During Versioning

Creative versioning can introduce problems if, say, an updated image pushes your file over size limits. Cape automatically checks for this and offers real-time, lossless compression so your creative stays under the limit without sacrificing visual quality.

4. Final Compliance Checks at Activation

Right before launch, Cape checks all required fields and creative specs. If something’s missing or misaligned with Google’s policies, the platform stops the publish; giving you a chance to fix it before it affects performance. Clean creatives go live; problem files get flagged for review.

With Cape, your team doesn’t have to play guessing games with Google Ads compliance. We’ve built a safety net into every step of the creative process so you can avoid costly delays and focus on what matters: getting great ads in front of the right audiences, fast.
