Cannot apply for Adsense for video

[Alessandro La Rosa]

Hi,

I'm trying to follow the instructions available here to apply for Adsense for video: https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/1705823

Specifically, when I try to follow steps of section 3, I click on Ads, but then I have no "Other products" link, and no "Apply for Adsense for video" button, as also visible in the attached screenshot.

Can anyone help me to solve this issue?

Thanks,

Alessandro

I've seen that I can also apply for Adsense for video from this page:

https://services.google.com/fb/forms/afvapproval/

Since in my case I'd like to integrate video ads in iOS and Android native apps, what kind of link should I insert in the "Example URL" field? I cannot link the published app, since it does not still integrate video ads, so should I create and host somewhere an ad-hoc created build of my apps? Or could a screencast (or some screenshots) of the ads integrated in the apps be enough?

Thanks,

Alessandro

Let me share your concern with the Mobile Ads SDK team as they are more capable of doing support with this type of concern.

Hi Sherwin,

thank you for your reply. As per your hint, I've posted on the Mobile Ads SDK group (even if my issue is more related to the IMA SDK, since I've integrated this SDK as indicated here: https://developers.google.com/interactive-media-ads/docs/sdks/android/ )

Best,

Hi Alessandro,

Thank you for your response and my apologies for the confusion.
 

I have misunderstood your inquiry as a Mobile Ads SDK concern, but it was related to Google AdSense. However, with regard to your inquiry, you can check out this Google AdSense documentation to give you an idea about the URL you're going to use when creating an AdSense account.

If you have further questions or clarifications, please let me know.

Hi Sherwin,

in my case, I already have an active Adsense account, but from what I've read I should also apply for Adsense for video, and I found two different ways:

* the first way I found is to fill this page: https://services.google.com/fb/forms/afvapproval/ - but it asks for an Example URL, and being native apps, an URL doesn't make much sense

* I also tried to follow the instructions on Section 3 of this page https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/1705823 - it lists steps to apply for Adsense for videos, but in my Adsense dashboard, when I click on Ads, I do not find any "Other products" or "Apply for Adsense for videos" options, as indicated in the instructions

Since the IMA SDKs are available for iOS and Android (and I've already integrated with success both of them), I guess I should be able to apply for native apps on these platforms, but I still haven't found the proper way.

Any further hints on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Alessandro

Hi Alessandro,

Thank you for your response.

Nice to know that you are able to integrate the IMA SDK for iOS and Android successfully. However, with regard to your AdSense account, I would suggest that you reach out to the AdSense team for further assistance since we only support IMA SDK implementation related issues on this forum.
