What is Google Ad Credit?

The $600 Google ad credit is a promotional offer extended to eligible small and medium-sized businesses for advertising on the Google Ads platform. This credit is intended to help businesses kickstart their online marketing efforts and reach a broader audience through targeted ads on Google search results pages. The credit can be applied towards various advertising expenses, such as clicks, impressions, and conversions, helping businesses maximize their advertising budget and drive more traffic to their websites.

How to Use Your Ad Credit

When setting up your Google Account, you will often have the ad-credit automatically applied to your account.

  1. Apply Your Credit: When you set up your ad campaign, you can choose to apply your ad credit as the payment method.

  2. Monitor Campaign Costs: Your ad credit will cover eligible charges up to the credit amount.

  3. Keep Track of Expiry Dates: Ensure you use all your credit before it expires to take full advantage of the free resources.

Checking Your Ad Credit Status

To ensure you always know how much credit you have and when it might expire, follow these steps to check your ad credit status:

  1. Log In: Sign into your advertising account where your ad credits are applied.

  2. Navigate to Billing: Go to the billing section of your account dashboard.

  3. View Your Payments: Here, you will see an overview of your billing transactions, including the ad credits.

  4. Ad Credits Details: Look for a section labeled ‘Ad Credits’ or ‘Promotional Credits’ to view details such as the amount of credit and its expiration date.

By regularly checking your ad credit status, you can plan your advertising spend more effectively and make the most out of the available credits.
