In the UK it’s been fairly straight forward to cheat Adwords and keep gambling campaigns running, knowing little more than Google staff’s office hours and a few other handy little cheats.
Unfortunately for affiliates at the moment, they’ll have to keep on using such tricks if they want to use AdWords, as the only people allowed to officially use AdWords for gambling are the actual companies themselves.
To apply you need a white listed region license, a copy of the license and the license number and all that stuff, so officially it’s only the companies that are supposed to be running the ads, not affiliates. The old affiliate cheats are still there though, maybe they will be tolerated a bit more, but your still risking an AdWords account if they catch you doing it. It also raises the question of is it worth wealthy affiliates applying to get a license somewhere, to be able to advertise?
