How to create ad accounts in Business Center

Last updated: September 2024

You can create ad accounts in a verified Business Center for different purposes, such as a single ad account for each brand or line of business you are promoting. Once created, this ad account will be owned by your Business Center.

Before you begin

You must be a Business Center admin to create ad accounts within your Business Center.

How to create Ad Accounts in the Business Center

  1. Under Assets, go to Advertiser accounts and click Add Advertiser Account.

  2. Select Create New and click Next.

  3. Fill in the required business information.

    • If you use Business Center to promote your business, you'll be asked to set up basic information such as account name, timezone, and billing information.

    • If you are an agency using Business Center to promote someone else's business on their behalf, you can type in your client's company name and select a matching name and address from a dropdown list.

      • Note: To prevent delays in account setup, try to match your business name to our records. When adding your ad account, use the search function on the page to find the matching company name. For example, if your business is a local branch of a company, ensure that the local name and not the headquarters business name is reflected. Any future modifications to the company name will trigger an ad review. Contact your representative if you are unsure or need assistance.

  4. Click Submit to finish.


Note: Agencies can re-use their clients' Business Certificate when creating multiple ad accounts, reducing friction during this process. After an agency submits the Business Certificate information and it's approved for the first ad account, they can select the existing verified certificate for future ad accounts.
