- Restricted functions and ad formats: content that can be promoted, but with limitations.
- Editorial and technical requirements: aim for certain quality standards for your ads, websites, and applications.
- There are trade sanctions.
- You have an outstanding balance
Reason: If there is any outstanding payment, that Google could not process this payment, they will notify you. If this is not regularized after some time, Google will suspend the account.
Solution: As simple as paying. Either by recharging your card or adding a new payment method.
How to recover a suspended Google Ads account?
Remember that when Google suspends an account, it suspends any account created because it sees it.
Google deletes all business or company information such as the domain, account history, and payment information, which, as far as new accounts are concerned, is also frozen. Therefore, the best thing to do in these problems is to be able to solve the problem so that there is no more understanding. Follow these steps:
- Log in to your Google Ads account.
- Click on the Google Ads tools icon, which is in the upper right corner.
- Under “Settings”, click on “Preferences”.
- Select “Account Status” to expand it.
- Click on “Re-activate my account”.
Remember: Many suspensions are not final and can be fixed. In these cases, it just means that Google thinks there is something you need to fix within your account. And in the case of canceled accounts, the problem is even simpler.
