Short answer: Mortgage social media advertising needs a documented review before launch: what is being promoted, which platform rules apply, where the ad sends a person, how the activity is recorded, and who owns the response to an exception. Platform activity or a single dashboard total is not evidence that an ad is suitable for every audience or workflow.
Use one review sheet for every platform
Keep the cross-platform questions consistent, then use the platform's current documentation for its specific controls. This page is about campaign review across platforms; it does not replace a platform-specific plan or an internal review process.
| Review area | What to document | Question to resolve |
|---|---|---|
| Campaign purpose | Offer description, intended audience, and accountable owner. | Can the team explain the campaign without a broad outcome promise? |
| Platform setup | Current category selection, audience controls, and policy reference. | Which current platform rules need review before publishing? |
| Creative and destination | Exact asset version, landing-page URL, and plain-language message match. | Does the destination give the same context as the creative? |
| Measurement and response | Source label, recorded event, next-action owner, and exception path. | What will the team inspect when activity is missing or unclear? |
Start with the platform's current requirements
Meta's campaign-setup guidance says a campaign relating to housing, employment, financial products and services, or other listed areas needs the relevant Special Ad Category selection. Meta's ad-review guidance also says its review can assess creative, text, targeting, and the destination. Confirm the current policy and the team's own review requirements before publishing.
Primary-source context: Meta campaign setup guidance and Meta ad review, policy and support guidance.
Important scope: This article is a campaign-review framework, not legal, regulatory, or platform-policy advice. Requirements can change and must be evaluated by the responsible team before a campaign is launched.
Inspect examples without treating them as proof
Meta's Ad Library can be used to inspect ads that are currently active across Meta products. It can help a team study formats and destinations, but an active ad is not evidence of approval for another advertiser or of any business result.

Recorded campaign-control context
This BNTouch training tutorial shows a campaign-rule example for adding and removing records. Use it only as visual context for audience and stop-condition review; teams must approve their own audience definitions, content, and review process.

Scope of this recorded source: The tutorial demonstrates one training environment. It does not establish current product behavior, timing, permissions, terms, data movement, or a required workflow for another organization.
Keep the proof with the campaign
Keep the reviewed creative, destination, source definition, event check, policy reference date, and exception notes together. That evidence makes a campaign easier to inspect after it changes or needs an internal review.
