What will happen when you reactivate your account

When you canceled your account, all your active ads stopped showing. When you reactivate your account:

• Any ads or campaigns that you left active will begin running again.
• Any ads or campaigns that you paused will not run until you re-enable them.

Before you begin

If you never requested to cancel your account: If you’re unable to sign in to AdWords, and you didn’t request to cancel your account, check out these common sign-in issues. If you’re still having trouble signing in, file a reactivation request.

If you also deleted your Google account: Before you can reactivate your AdWords account, you must first recover your Google Account.

If you don’t want your ads to automatically start running when you reactivate your account: Sign in to your account and make sure to pause your ads, ad groups, or campaigns. You can re-enable them after activating your account.
