How do I check if my VCC is accepted by Google Ads?

To check if your VCC (Virtual Credit Card) is accepted by Google Ads, follow these steps:

1. Add the VCC to Google Ads Account:
Go to your Google Ads account.

Click on the Tools & Settings icon (the wrench icon) at the top right.

Under the Billing section, select Billing & payments.

In the Payment methods section, click on Add payment method.

Choose Credit or debit card, and then enter the details of your VCC.

2. Verify the Payment Method:
After you've entered your VCC information, Google Ads will typically perform a small transaction (usually a temporary charge of $1 or less) to verify that the card is valid. You should see this charge in your VCC account.

If the charge goes through, it confirms that the VCC is accepted. If there's an issue, you'll usually receive a notification in your Google Ads account, and the VCC might not be accepted.

3. Check for Errors or Notifications:
If your VCC isn't accepted, Google Ads will likely show a payment failure message, such as "Payment declined" or "Payment method not supported."

Ensure that the VCC you're using is eligible for online payments and international transactions.

4. Check VCC Limitations:
Some VCC providers might restrict certain types of payments (e.g., recurring charges or international payments), so check with the VCC provider to confirm that it's allowed for Google Ads.

Ensure that the VCC has sufficient funds to process your ads, as a balance under your set budget could cause an issue.

5. Contact Google Ads Support (if needed):
If you're still unsure or facing issues, contact Google Ads support to confirm whether your specific VCC type is supported.
