Hello Dylan, 

I'm not sure I understand your concern here. From my understanding, if you're trying to load ads and monetize your apps from the same IP address, there shouldn't be a problem loading the ads. Let me know if you have any specific questions, I'll be happy to assist you.

Thanks,

sorry for my bad english
there is no problem in implementing admob.
but users click on ads have same ip address (because of VPN connection) so will admob system pay us for such clicks?
or they will detect us as a spammer or cheater ?

Hi,

Thanks for your query, we are looking into this further to give you a clear response.

One thing I can advise is that clicks can have additional attributes regarding their origin on top of the IP address, so its possible that clicks are not going to be marked as suspicious based on IP address alone. However it is one signal that is used in fraud detection as you suggested. 

We will advise further when we have additional information. 

You may find this resource useful in the meantime - https://www.google.com/ads/adtrafficquality/index.html.

Hi,

As an update to this, I can confirm that we are not aware of any reason why organic clicks from a single IP would be suspicious on its own.

I know there is a vpn application that helps users use vpn. This app is free, so they need to add some ads to keep the service going on. All users who use this application ip are the same. Then this application can add admob ads?

sorry，my english not good.

Hi,

Yes you can still use AdMob ads in your VPN application.

This is our app ：Office VPN.

A few months ago I added admob for this application, but for some reason my account was permanently banned. I also filed a complaint, but still did not unlock it, I want to know how to unlock my account. If I can not unlock my account, can I register for a new account to continue adding admob to this app.
