How to Grant Someone Access to Your Google Ads Account

When you hire a agency, it is helpful to give them their own access to your Google Ads Account. This allows them to look at the account without compromising the account. It also allows you to keep tabs on their activities within your account through the History tool.

How to add an additional user to your Google Ads account:

1. Login to your Google Ads account.
2. Click on “My Account
3. Click on “Access.”

10. On the “Review and send” screen, check that the information is correct.
11. If the information is correct, click on “Send Invitation.”
12. Once the invitation has been sent, you must wait for the person you invited to accept the invitation. This should happen within 24 hours. If the invitation is not accepted in 24 hours, contact the person to be sure that they received it.
