How long does it take to get a refund from Google Ads?

The time it takes to receive a refund from Google Ads can vary depending on the specific circumstances, but typically it can take anywhere from 3 to 14 business days for the refund to be processed and appear in your account.

Here's a general breakdown:

Refund Request Processing: After you request a refund (if you're eligible), Google Ads will review the request. This usually takes a few days.

Refund Issuance: Once approved, Google will issue the refund to the original payment method. This is where the timing can vary, as it depends on the payment method itself.

Credit/Debit Cards: Can take up to 5 business days.

Bank Transfers: Might take longer, often 7-10 business days, depending on your bank.

PayPal: Refunds might take 1-3 business days, but it can also depend on PayPal's processing times.

You can check the status of your refund in your Google Ads account under the "Billing" section. If it's been over two weeks and you haven't seen your refund yet, it's a good idea to contact Google Ads Support for clarification.
