Why isn't my advert live?

Why isn’t my ad live yet?

Most ads go live within 15 to 20 minutes.

Once your ad is live, you’ll receive a confirmation email or SMS.


If your ad isn’t live yet

Don’t worry, it’s usually one of these:

  • Your ad is being reviewed for safety and quality.
  • There’s a short delay during busy periods.
  • Your ad may need a quick check against our posting rules by a human.

We do this to keep Freeads safe & trusted for all of our lovely members.


What should I do?

  • Check your email (including spam/junk) for updates.
  • Allow a little extra time if you’ve just posted.

Still not live?

If your ad hasn’t appeared after a short wait, contact support and we’ll take a look.
