Advertise with us
Joystyk sells its own ad space, like billboards beside a road. Your ad sits in a fixed, labeled slot beside free games for every age: never inside a game and never during play.
Who sees your ad
- Every age. Joystyk is for families, children and grown-ups alike, so every ad must suit all of them.
- Chosen by context, never by person. We pick an ad by the page, game, category and date. Everyone on the same page on the same day sees the same ad.
- No tracking. No cookies, profiles or third-party ad scripts. We never learn who saw your ad, and neither do you.
- Counted on our server. We report impressions and clicks per creative per day.
We don't publish traffic figures yet. Once we have a season of data, we'll share them on request.
The ad slots
Each slot has a fixed size on wide and narrow screens, so your ad appears exactly as you made it and the page never jumps around it. The shapes below are drawn to scale.

Rates
Contact us for rates. We price each booking by slot and dates: the home page banner sells by the day or the week, and the daily presenting sponsor by the day. We bill by invoice.
The rules every ad meets
Children see these slots, so we hold every ad to children's advertising standards. In short:
- No alcohol, tobacco or vaping, gambling, dating, weapons, adult content, food and drink, charities, or political and issue ads.
- Games, apps, films and shows only when rated G, U, PEGI 3 or ESRB Everyone, with the rating shown.
- Honest claims and no pressure to buy: nothing that tells children to ask a parent or to hurry.
- Nothing that looks like part of the site or a game, such as fake buttons, scores or alerts.
- A static image with alt text, a short headline and one link to a page that suits every age.
- We review every creative before it runs, and may refuse or remove any ad.
Read the full creative policy, with the image specs for each slot.
