Campaigns

Understand campaign status

Your campaign’s status lets you know whether your campaigns are running or not. Check the Status column to see if your campaigns are running as you'd expect or address any issues that may be holding up your campaign. 

Example of the Campaigns interface in Ad Mob.

The table below shows the different types of campaign statuses and what they mean.

Status What it means
This campaign is active and eligible to show ads.
This campaign is not serving ads because you paused it. Pausing a campaign means that your ads don't show or accumulate new clicks until resumed.
This campaign is not serving ads because you removed it. Removing a campaign means that ads don't show or accumulate new clicks.

This campaign hasn’t started yet. The campaign’s start date is a future date.

The campaign has ended. The campaign’s end date has passed.

The campaign has expired because the campaign has been inactive for more than 18 months. Expired campaigns can only be removed and can't be restarted.
This campaign is not running and there is a problem that needs to be fixed. Problems can be the following:
  • The campaign has no ad units.
  • The campaign has no ads.
  • The campaign has ads that are disapproved. Ads within a campaign must conform to Google platform policies. Learn more about Google Ads policies.
 
Click the heading of the Status column to sort your campaigns by status.
