Advertising on GannaGo
Featured & Sponsored Ads Policy
Effective: 1 October 2026
GannaGo shows two kinds of promoted content: featured ads, which are sellers' own listings given extra visibility, and sponsored ads, which are paid placements by businesses. This policy explains how both work and what is allowed.
1. Featured ads
- Featuring a listing adds a Featured badge and shows it in the featured sections of the home page and category pages for 7 days.
- During our launch promotion, featuring is free. You can have up to 2 ads featured at the same time. When a feature ends or you remove it, you can feature another ad.
- This is a promotional offer. Featuring may become a paid service after the promotion ends. Ads already featured stay featured until their 7 days end.
- Only active ads can be featured. Featured ads must follow our Terms & Conditions and posting rules, like any other ad.
- We may remove the featured status, or the ad itself, if it breaks our rules.
2. Sponsored ads
- Sponsored ads are paid placements by businesses. They appear as cards among featured ads and listings, and as a banner on the home page.
- They are always labelled "Sponsored", and their position among listings changes at random.
- A sponsored ad is not an endorsement. GannaGo does not sell, check or guarantee the advertiser's products or services.
- Every sponsored ad is reviewed before it is published.
3. Not allowed in sponsored ads
- Illegal goods or services, or anything that breaks Sri Lankan law.
- Weapons, explosives, drugs and drug paraphernalia.
- Adult or sexual content, and dating or escort services.
- Gambling, betting and lotteries not licensed in Sri Lanka.
- Misleading claims: "get rich quick" schemes, guaranteed returns, fake discounts or false scarcity.
- Phishing, scams, malware, or pages that ask for passwords or card details under false pretences.
- Copyrighted material, brands or images you do not have the right to use.
- Political or election advertising.
4. Creative and landing page standards
- The landing page must match the ad: same offer, same price, same business.
- No fake buttons, fake system alerts or images made to look like GannaGo listings.
- Links must work, use secure https, and must not redirect to unrelated pages.
- Images must be clear and readable. Recommended sizes: 800 × 600 px for cards, 1200 × 300 px for the home banner.
5. Review and removal
- We may reject, pause or remove any sponsored ad that breaks this policy or our Terms & Conditions, at any time.
- Booking terms for sponsored ads, including prices and refunds, are agreed with each advertiser before a campaign starts.
- If you see a sponsored ad that breaks this policy, please report it to us.
6. Measurement and privacy
- We count how many times each sponsored ad is seen and clicked, as totals per ad, to report results to advertisers.
- A view is counted when at least half of the ad is visible for one second, at most once per browser per day.
- We do not share personal information about visitors with advertisers.
