Hi there,
My Developer Token is limited to use with test accounts only.
 Following this, I am trying to create a new test account 
under my admin account with no success.
I would be very happy to receive help in this matte

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team.

In order to create a test manager account, a test client account, and a few campaigns to populate the test client account. You can follow the below steps:

  • Go to the Google Ads manager accounts page and create a test manager account.
  • Use the Google Ads UI to create a test client account under the test manager account you created above. While logged in to Google Ads as your test manager account, any client accounts you create will automatically be test accounts.
I would recommend you to check Create test accounts and Limitations documentation for more information. In order to create MCC production accounts, I would suggest you to check this help center article Google Ads manager account for more information.
 
This message is in relation to case "ref:!00D1U01174p.!5004Q02vGicv:ref" (ADR-00274689)

Thanks,

Hi 
I am getting this error while creating test account under test manager account:


To create new accounts, link an existing account
This needs to be a Google Ads account that
  • has spent more than $1,000
  • has a history of policy compliance
Once the account is linked, you'll get access to account creation within a day
Learn more about account creation

Obviously, billing and payments is disabled in the Test Manager account. How do I proceed?

Regards,
Madhur
