Sex Content Missing Age Gate

Sex Content Missing Age Gate. Common Triggers: Learn how MyTCRPlus tools, templates and checklists help you pass TCR vetting in one submit.

Why This Rejection Happens

This code appears when a campaign contains "Mature" or "Suggestive" content (e.g., dating apps, lingerie sites, romance novels) but lacks a mandatory 18+ Age Gate on the website. Note: Explicit pornography is banned entirely (Code 703). This code applies to the "allowed but restricted" grey area of mature content.

  • Dating app landing page without age verification.
  • Lingerie store with suggestive imagery and no gate.
  • Adult novelty stores (selling toys) without an 18+ popup.
  • Missing "Age Gated Content" attribute in TCR.

Root Cause Analysis

Primary Triggers

  • Content Threshold: If the content is "Not Safe For Work" (NSFW) but not hardcore pornography, carriers demand an Age Gate to ensure minors aren't targeted.
  • Attribute Failure: Even if your site has a gate, if you fail to check the "Age Gated Content" box in TCR, the automated audit will reject the campaign upon seeing the content.

Step-by-Step Remediation

Install 18+ Age Gate

If your business sells adult novelties or is a dating service, you MUST have a popup on your homepage asking the user to confirm they are 18 or older.

Update Attributes

Log into TCR/CSP portal. Edit the campaign. Check the box for "Age Gated Content".

Pre-Resubmission Checklist

  • My site has an 18+ confirmation popup.
  • I have enabled the "Age Gated Content" attribute.
  • I confirm my content is NOT explicit pornography (Code 703).
