Snapchat might have one more method to vie against rival applications such as Instagram: truth in ads. Evan Spiegel (Snap chief) claimed to the media in a statement that his firm has a group that verifies all political ads—a sharp dissimilarity to Facebook, which has declined to confirm the preciseness of political ads up to now. The firm needs to “make a place” for these ads, Spiegel claimed, and it is specifically essential considering young audience of Snapchat. It needs these users to “get involved with the political chats,” but it does not want fake claims meddle into those ads.
He likened ad policy of Snap to that of cable TV systems, which are permitted to ban ads they deem intolerable. This characteristically indicates banning ads that make obviously fake assertions.
It makes logic that Snapchat might carry on continue to operate political ads considering earlier successes. A voter registration campaign at the time of the last year’s US midterms got 418,000 users to enroll within only 2 Weeks, for example. While candidate ads are not the same exactly, there is a good opportunity that many consumers are tapping on and seeing those ads—good news for both Snap’s bottom line and political engagement.
This also assists Snapchat differentiate itself as compared to Facebook’s liberal policy and outright ban of Twitter on political ads. No, it almost certainly will not result in users flocking to Snapchat from other social media services, but it does offer Snap something to brag about. And if nothing else, it displays that it is achievable to find a middle ground in political online ads.
On a related note, the coverage of DAZN’s boxing earlier headed to an strange place: Snapchat. The sports platform teamed up with Snapto launch its shows on Discover.
