Cannabis advertising compliance checker

Yes, but inside a narrow, state-by-state channel set. Mainstream platforms like Google Search and Meta reject cannabis ads, so compliant reach comes from curated bar and restaurant TV, programmatic DOOH and display through cannabis-friendly SSPs, CTV, and rideshare, each gated to an adult audience. What is permitted depends on the state.

Most adult-use states require that a set share of the people who see an ad are over 21, often stated as a minimum (for example 71.6 percent or 85 percent reasonably expected to be 21+) or as a cap (no more than 30 percent under 21). It is the single rule that decides whether a given placement is buyable, which is why the checker surfaces it first for each state.

In adult-use states, yes. Curated bar and restaurant TV reaches a verifiable 21+ audience in venues that clear the composition threshold, which makes it one of the few screens cannabis brands can run on at scale. The checker shows whether bar TV is available in your state.

Both platforms prohibit the promotion of cannabis and most THC products in their ad policies, regardless of state legality, and routinely suspend accounts that try. That platform lockout is exactly why the compliant channel mix centers on owned and curated inventory rather than mainstream digital.

Substantially. Legal status, the audience-composition threshold, prohibited claims, and required disclaimers all vary state to state, and they change as new legislation passes. Treat any single rule as a starting point and confirm against the current state regulation before a flight.
