There are two ways to pause a campaign: indefinitely or temporarily.
- Choose 'Temporarily' to schedule your campaign to automatically resume after a scheduled pause period. This can be useful for seasonal businesses.
- Choose 'Forever, or until I resume' to pause your campaign indefinitely. Manually resume it at any time.
While paused, your campaign won't accrue charges, but you may still receive a bill for charges accrued while your campaign was running.
