Reach Players While They Are Playing

Gaming is not passive content.

Players are actively watching, clicking, reacting, discovering and returning.

That creates valuable opportunities for brands that want to appear inside a genuine entertainment environment.

GamesCrate offers advertising and partnership opportunities across our browser-gaming ecosystem.

Why GamesCrate?

GamesCrate is designed around instant browser gaming.

Our audience discovers and plays games across categories such as:

• Arcade
• Puzzle
• Action
• Adventure
• Strategy
• Sports
• Racing
• Casual gaming

Advertising alongside interactive entertainment can give brands a different environment from a traditional article or social feed.

Advertising Opportunities

Available campaign formats may vary, but GamesCrate can consider opportunities such as:

Display Advertising

Responsive advertising placements around GamesCrate content.

Suitable for:

• Brand awareness
• Product promotion
• Gaming-related campaigns
• Technology campaigns
• Entertainment campaigns

Pre-Game Advertising

For eligible GamesCrate-controlled game experiences, advertising may be displayed after the visitor chooses to play and before the game begins.

Campaign eligibility depends on the game source, technical compatibility and advertising policy.

Sponsored Game Placement

Want players to discover a specific game or gaming product?

Subject to review and availability, GamesCrate may offer sponsored visibility within appropriate discovery areas.

Featured Campaigns

Brands may enquire about:

• Homepage visibility
• Game-category sponsorship
• Featured placements
• Seasonal campaigns
• Promotional collections

Custom Partnerships

Have something different in mind?

We can discuss custom campaigns involving gaming, entertainment, developer partnerships or publisher distribution.

Availability depends on the campaign and our current platform capabilities.

Advertising That Respects Gameplay

We want advertising to support GamesCrate—not make GamesCrate unpleasant to use.

Our goal is to keep campaigns:

• Clear
• Relevant
• Responsive
• Non-deceptive
• Technically safe
• Appropriate for a gaming audience

Advertising should not deliberately imitate system controls, fake download buttons or mislead users into clicking.

Campaign Requirements

Advertisers should be prepared to provide:

• Brand/company name
• Campaign objective
• Landing-page URL
• Target markets
• Campaign dates
• Creative assets
• Preferred placements
• Approximate budget
• Contact details

We may request additional information before approving a campaign.

Creative Requirements

Advertising materials should:

• Be accurate
• Match the advertised product
• Load securely over HTTPS
• Work on mobile where required
• Avoid malware or automatic downloads
• Avoid deceptive interaction
• Respect intellectual-property rights
• Meet applicable advertising laws

GamesCrate reserves the right to reject or remove advertising that does not meet our standards.

Restricted Advertising

We may reject or restrict campaigns involving:

• Illegal products or services
• Malware
• Deceptive products
• Fraud
• Counterfeit goods
• Explicit adult content
• Hate or extremist content
• Misleading financial claims
• Unsafe products
• Unauthorized copyrighted material
• Other regulated or age-restricted categories

Additional restrictions may apply depending on location and the advertising provider involved.

Advertising and Privacy

Some advertising technologies use cookies, identifiers or similar technologies for measurement, fraud prevention and ad delivery.

Where applicable, these technologies are covered by our Privacy & Cookie Policy and consent controls.

Third-party advertising platforms may also apply their own policies.

Sponsored Content Disclosure

Paid or sponsored placements may be identified as advertising, sponsored content, promoted content or similar wording where appropriate.

We believe commercial relationships should be clear to users.

Campaign Reporting

Depending on the campaign and placement, available reporting may include metrics such as:

• Impressions
• Clicks
• Engagement
• Campaign delivery
• Other agreed metrics

Not every placement supports every metric.

Reporting arrangements should be confirmed before a campaign begins.

Game Developers and Gaming Brands

GamesCrate can also discuss promotional opportunities for:

• Browser games
• Game studios
• Gaming tools
• Developer products
• Gaming hardware
• Gaming communities
• Entertainment brands

Every promoted game remains subject to quality, security and rights review.

Publishers and Distribution Partners

If your goal is not advertising but adding GamesCrate games to your own website or application, our Publisher Platform may be a better fit.
