Originally Published November 15, 2018 / Last Updated April 10, 2025

It’s pretty common for ad campaigns to stop due to a payment error. If the card has expired or needs to be updated the ads will no longer run until your details are updated. Here is how to do it:

Go to google.com.au
In the top right corner log out of your current account if you logged in
Go to google.com/adwords
Log in with your adwords account by clicking log in in the top right
Once in click on the tools icon in the top bar. Then under SETUP click Billing & Payments
Update Billing Payment
log out by clicking on the icon in the top right

All Done! Your payment has been updated and your ads can run again.
