📌 What Happens If Your Virtual Credit Card (VCC) Runs Out of Funds While Your YouTube Ad Campaign Is Active?
If your VCC runs out of funds while your YouTube Ads campaign is running, several things can happen, depending on Google Ads' payment settings and your account status.

❌ Consequences of an Insufficient VCC Balance
🚫 1. Your YouTube Ads Will Pause Automatically

Google Ads will immediately stop running your campaign if it cannot process the payment.
No further ads will be displayed until the outstanding balance is cleared.
🚫 2. Your Google Ads Account May Be Flagged for Payment Issues

If multiple payment attempts fail, your account may be temporarily restricted.
Frequent failed payments can lower your account's trust score with Google.
🚫 3. You May Incur Unpaid Ad Charges

If your account is on automatic payments, Google may accumulate the charges and attempt to deduct them later when funds are available.
🚫 4. Google May Require You to Add a New Payment Method

If your VCC continues to fail, Google Ads may prompt you to add another payment method before restarting your campaign.
✅ How to Fix a Failed VCC Payment on YouTube Ads
🔹 Option 1: Reload Funds on Your VCC
✔ Log into your VCC provider account and top up your balance.
✔ Once the funds are added, Google will automatically attempt the charge again.

🔹 Option 2: Manually Pay the Outstanding Balance
✔ Go to Google Ads Billing
✔ Click "Transactions" → "Make a Payment"
✔ Select your VCC or another payment method and pay manually.

🔹 Option 3: Use a Backup Payment Method
✔ Add a secondary card in Google Ads → Billing → Payment Methods to avoid campaign disruptions.
✔ Use a reliable, reloadable VCC like Exocards to prevent failed payments.
