Best Practice/Notes
- No capitalising of words eg: "All make-up HALF-PRICE buy NOW" must be "All make-up half-price buy now" with the exception of acronyms (ie: NZ)
- Avoid text or copy in the image where possible as this is known to negatively impact user engagement
- Creative may be rejected if it’s considered offensive, misleading, overwhelming, or distracting.
