How AD18 Works
Canada's paid-only classifieds platform.
Paid listings help reduce spam, low-effort posts, and fake listings so users can browse with clearer intent.
The posting flow
2
Choose a category and location
Pick the category, province, and city that best match your listing. This helps visitors find relevant ads faster.
3
Add clear details
Write a clear title and description. Add real photos when possible, and use the dedicated contact fields for phone, email, or social links.
4
Pick a posting option
Choose the posting duration and any available upgrades or add-ons. Pricing may vary by category, duration, and selected options.
5
Review and checkout
Review your listing before payment. The exact total is shown before checkout, including any taxes, credits, or add-ons that may apply. Available payment methods are shown at checkout.
6
Go live
After checkout and any required review, eligible listings may appear on AD18. Some ads may be scanned or reviewed for compliance before becoming publicly visible.
Why AD18 is different from free listing sites
AD18 is built to be more intentional than open, free-for-all listing boards. Paid-only posting helps discourage spam and low-effort listings before they reach visitors. AD18 also takes platform integrity and user safety seriously by combining paid posting, moderation tools, user reports, optional verification, and admin review.
- Paid-only posting helps reduce throwaway spam, fake posts, and low-effort listings.
- Ads may be reviewed using automated moderation tools before or after they appear.
- Uploaded images may be scanned to help detect prohibited content, although no scanning system is perfect.
- User reports help surface ads that may need attention. Ads with repeated reports, including 5 or more reports within 24 hours, may be escalated for admin review.
- Optional user verification can help build trust, but it does not guarantee a safe user or transaction.
- Admins may limit visibility, restrict, suspend, or ban accounts, and may reject, hide, or remove ads that violate platform policies.
- Together, paid posting, moderation tools, image checks, user reports, optional verification, and admin review help keep AD18 listings cleaner than free, low-friction classifieds sites.
