Advertise with Joking Joystick
Discuss relevant advertising and sponsorship opportunities with a publication focused on games and collecting.
Joking Joystick covers retro gaming, collecting, trading cards, and pop culture. We welcome relevant business inquiries through our contact form. Include the organization, proposed campaign, intended audience, format, timing, and a contact name.
Our launch position
No paid advertising campaigns are enabled at launch. We do not publish invented audience figures, campaign results, or rate cards. Any future proposal will need clear deliverables and an agreed schedule before a placement is promised.
What a relationship must preserve
Commercial content must be identifiable to readers. Paid placements and sponsored articles will carry an appropriate disclosure, and affiliate relationships will be explained near relevant recommendations or links. Purchasing advertising does not purchase an undisclosed favorable editorial conclusion.
Creative must be suitable for the audience, accurately describe the offer, and respect the reading experience. We do not accept misleading controls, fake system messages, deceptive download buttons, or material that impersonates editorial navigation. External destinations and tracking requirements need to be specified as part of a proposal.
What to send
A short description is enough to start. Explain what you want readers to learn or do and why the campaign is relevant to this publication. Do not send account credentials or assume that submitting creative reserves a placement. Our affiliate disclosure and editorial policy describe the standards that apply.
