Collapsible anchor ads for mobile web (Beta)

This feature is in Beta
Features in Beta phase might not be available in your network. Watch the release notes for when this feature becomes generally available.

This article describes an enhancement to Google Ad Manager's anchor ad format, called Collapsible anchor ads.

Similar to collapsible banner ads for mobile apps, collapsible anchor ads appear at half of the screen height. Users can immediately collapse them to the standard anchor size.

Note: In Google Ad Manager, reservations are not currently supported for collapsible anchor ads.

On this page

During the initial launch, users see a maximum of one collapsible anchor ad per hour. Subsequent anchor ads on the site remain at the standard size until the frequency cap is reached.
