From today it's possible as described in this post.

To enable Admob ads, place the following tag in your `config.xml` file:


<gap:plugin name="com.admob.google" source="plugins.cordova.io" />


You can test the phonegap admob demo app here

Thanks to PhoneGap Build team for making big changes to the policy, and allow all plugins in Cordova plugin registry can be used.

After 1 year, the long waited popular AdMob plugin can be used by PhoneGap Build users, by simply configuring it in config.xml:

<gap:plugin name="com.google.cordova.admob" source="plugins.cordova.io"/>

The javascript call is quite simple, as the purpose of the plugin is: # Show Mobile Ad with single line of javascript code #

if(AdMob) AdMob.createBanner( {
adId:"ca-app-pub-xxx/kkk", // your admob ad unit id
position:AdMob.AD_POSITION.TOP_CENTER,
autoShow:true} );

For more instructions or example code, just go to the github homepage of the plugin project:

Besides AdMob, there are several other options:
http://plugins.cordova.io/#/search?se...

They are:
* Facebook AudienceNetwork
* Flurry Ads from Yahoo
* iAd
* MobFox
* MoPub
* MillennialMedia

All with exactly same API interface with the AdMob plugin.

Thanks again to PGB team for the amazing work!
