Is it possible to block some countries from receiving Ads?

[MadStar]

Here is the problem: I added AdMob to an IOS app that went live a week ago on the iTunes App store.

This app displays alerts and information about things totally unrelated to a country like Angola in Africa

Surprisingly someone is generating 10 times more traffic from Angola than US or any other concerned country in the World and I suspect some dumbo there playing tricks. I searched FAQ and history and seen some people had identical problems with "Unknown Country" in the past.

I already disabled distribution of the app in most African countries but would like to block ads in these countries to prevent scammers from generating false impressions and clicks.

Any idea? I know from experience that it is difficult to talk to Google but anyway you can report this to Admob people before some Google algorithm decides to ban you?

Thanks

Hi MadStar,

With AdMob mediation, you can enable country level targeting on the networks you mediate with. While you can't disable specific countries, you can enable only the rest of the countries you care about.

Cheers,
