How do I update my VCC information in YouTube Ads?

SeoGuru

To update your Virtual Credit Card (VCC) information in YouTube Ads (via Google Ads), you'll need to follow these steps to replace the old payment method with your new VCC details:

Steps to Update Your VCC Information in YouTube Ads (Google Ads)
Log In to Your Google Ads Account

Go to Google Ads and sign in using your credentials.

Access Billing & Payments Settings

In the top-right corner of the Google Ads dashboard, click on the Tools & Settings icon (it looks like a wrench).

Under the Billing section, select Billing & Payments.

Go to Payment Methods

In the Billing & Payments section, click on Payment Methods in the left-hand sidebar.

Remove Your Old VCC

Find the VCC that you want to update or replace.

Click on the three vertical dots next to the old VCC or select Remove to delete it.

Important: If the VCC is your primary payment method, you will need to set another payment method as primary before you can remove it. You can do this by clicking Set as Primary next to another payment method.

Add Your New VCC

After removing the old VCC, click on Add Payment Method.

Enter the details of your new VCC:

Card number

Expiration date

CVV

Billing address (must match the one associated with the VCC)

Set the New VCC as Primary (Optional)

If you want your new VCC to be the primary payment method, click on the three dots next to your newly added VCC and select Set as Primary.

Verify the Payment Method

Google Ads may place a small verification charge (e.g., $1) to verify the new VCC. Ensure that there are sufficient funds on the card to cover this verification charge.

Once the verification is successful, your new VCC will be active for future payments.

Check for Payment Errors

After updating the payment method, monitor your Google Ads account for any billing or payment issues.

If there are any errors, review the payment method details to ensure everything is entered correctly, and confirm that there are no restrictions with your VCC provider.

Additional Tips:
If you're updating your VCC to replace a lost or compromised card, make sure to contact your VCC provider to block the old card and ensure it's not being charged anymore.

Always ensure that your billing address is up to date and matches the address tied to the VCC.

If you encounter any payment issues, Google Ads provides a support option where you can contact their team for further assistance.
