YouTube bars promotion of betting sites without Google certification
YouTube announced that creators may not mention or promote online betting and casino sites that lack Google certification, with the policy taking effect in March 2025. The restriction applies to creators and channels that earn from such advertising; penalties may include video removals and channel demonetisation. Brazilian gaming lawyer Filipe Senna said the policy could affect promotion of unauthorised platforms in Brazil.
Creators and affiliates promoting unauthorised gambling sites may face video removals or lose channel monetisation.
