What It Is

LegitScript’s certification program is recognized by Google to vet advertisers for eligible CBD products and websites. CBD manufacturers and retailers with LegitScript-certified websites can stand out in an increasingly crowded field by advertising on Google.

How It Works
  1. CBD manufacturers and retailers submit an application for LegitScript product certification for eligible CBD products.*
    * Examples of in-scope products include cosmetics, soaps, topicals, and other products that are in compliance with USDA, FDA, FTC, and DEA regulations, as well as state-specific laws.
  2. Those with a CBD product catalog that consists only of LegitScript-certified products are then eligible to submit their websites for LegitScript certification, a requirement for advertising on Google. Having only product certification(s) without website certification is insufficient.
    Note: In addition to receiving LegitScript’s CBD Certification, advertisers must comply with all externally available Google ads policies in order to advertise on Google.
  3. Once your website is certified, LegitScript will provide you information on demonstrating your certified status.

For more information on the application process, see our Process and Pricing page.

Coverage

Currently, per Google’s policy, advertising is available in California, Colorado, and Puerto Rico.
