In August, the Google Ads Restricted ad formats and features policy will be updated to reflect a new requirement for using click tracker services. Starting the week of 28 August advertiser accounts using click trackers for the first time will only be allowed to use certified click trackers in the tracking template feature or their ads may be disapproved. For the time being, advertisers who have been using click trackers prior to 28 August can continue to use the tracking template feature without restrictions.

Click tracker service providers may apply for certification for their click trackers. Please refer to this website for certification guidelines before applying. Some click tracker service providers that meet the certification guidelines have been auto-certified. Here is the list of these click trackers. All click tracker providers who complete certification will be added to this list.
