Regulated financial services product

What this means

Meta restricts financial-services product listings — credit, loans, crypto, investment, insurance products. Most require pre-approval; many are banned.

Why this happens

Cryptocurrency wallets, hardware wallets, financial-themed merchandise often trip this even when the product is benign.

How to fix it

  1. Check if your product falls under Meta's regulated financial-services list.
  2. Apply for the certification track for permitted categories.
  3. Crypto-themed merchandise can sometimes pass with clear product-only positioning.
  4. Banned categories (most consumer crypto products) should be excluded.
