Hello,
We recently detected invalid activity in your AdMob account. As a result, we’ve temporarily suspended your account for 30 days. During this time, no ads will be served on your mobile applications.
Why was my account suspended?
We found that you have clicked on your own AdMob ads in a non test-mode setting, which is prohibited by the AdMob Program Policies.
We understand that you may want to know more about the invalid activity we’ve detected. Because this information could be used to circumvent our proprietary detection system, we’re unable to provide our publishers with information about specific account activity, including any apps or users that may have been involved.
This is a one-time, non-appealable suspension. After 30 days, we’ll automatically re-enable ad-serving on your account.
If you need more time to identify and stop the invalid activity, please remove your AdMob ad code from your apps to prevent ads from being displayed.
Please note that if any additional issues are found in your AdMob account in the interim period of suspension, your account may be permanently disabled even before the suspension period ends. Please review our list of top reasons for account closure to help you understand the possible reasons that publishers may have their accounts disabled.
If your account is found to have invalid activity in the future, it will be subject to additional penalties, and may be permanently disabled.
How does the suspension affect my payments?
You will be eligible to begin receiving payments again once your account generates sufficient valid traffic.
As a result of the suspension, we are withholding the unpaid revenue in your account and refunding the balance, along with Google’s share, to affected advertisers. In addition, once ad-serving resumes on your apps, we will hold any future payments for 30 days—you will earn revenue during this time, and, provided your account remains in good standing, that revenue will be paid in the next payment period.
How can I prevent this from happening again?
To help you identify the potential source of the problem, we recommend reviewing the following resources:
- Review the top reasons for account suspension article in our AdMob Help Center.
- Don't click live ads on your own apps. Use test ads (available for Android, iOS, or Windows Phone) to test ad clicks on your apps.
- Learn how to segment your traffic to help you best understand, monitor, and evaluate the traffic to your apps. This may also help you identify sources of invalid activity. For more information, please visit Google Analytics in AdMob.
- Review the Ad Traffic Quality Resource Center for additional information on invalid activity.
We encourage you to be proactive in ensuring that your ad traffic complies with our guidelines and policies. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation. We look forward to your return to the AdMob network in good standing after the suspension ends.
Sincerely,
The Google AdMob Team
