Naver Adds an AI Chatbot to Its Advertiser Centre, Opening to All on 29 July

Naver has added an AI chatbot to its advertiser centre. Advertisers can ask questions and get answers without waiting for a human agent, around the clock.

What it does

The chatbot answers immediately inside the advertiser centre chat window, grounded in help documentation and ad registration standards.

  • Answers come with navigation buttons that lead straight to the relevant action
  • When escalation is needed, the conversation transfers automatically to a human agent

The second point is what practitioners will feel. You do not have to re-explain from the beginning after handing off.

Full rolloutWednesday 29 July 2026

The caveat that matters

Naver explicitly states that AI answers may lag behind the latest policy, and advises checking the original help documentation and ad registration standards for anything important.

That is not boilerplate. Rejections of creative and account-level enforcement are judged against the policy text. If you run based on a chatbot answer and get rejected, the consequence stays with the advertiser.

A working rule

  • Routine questions — use the chatbot, including nights and weekends
  • Questions with delivery consequences — check the source text or escalate
  • Right after a policy change — do not take chatbot answers at face value

One more date to note

Ad system maintenance is also scheduled for late July, which freezes product data and creative edits during specific windows — worth checking alongside this rollout.

Frequently Asked Questions

When can every advertiser use the chatbot?

It is in pilot with a subset of advertisers now and expands to all advertisers on Wednesday 29 July 2026.

Do I have to repeat myself when escalating to a human?

No. The conversation transfers automatically when you are connected to an agent.

Can I rely on the chatbot's answers?

Naver warns that AI answers may lag the latest policy. For anything consequential, check the help documentation and ad registration standards directly.
