Google has updated its financial products and services policy to require FCA registration for UK crypto exchanges and software wallet ads.
Advertisers must meet strict requirements and register with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) starting January 15, 2025.
Hardware wallet ads for storing private keys for cryptocurrencies and digital assets are allowed, as long as they don't promote trading or buying/selling.
This policy change aims to align with local regulations, protect consumers, and ensure accountability among crypto advertisers.
