Hi guys i need your tips on how to create search ads without been suspended for suspicious billing activity. I recently created 7 threshold accounts with $350 with no problem. Display ads and video ads work with no problem but as soon as i created search ads account got suspended for suspicious payment activities.
I dont know why youtube ads and display ads works fine but search ads get account suspended for suspicious payment activity.
 
Generally, based on my personal experience suspicious behavior in payment activity OR your billing information can't be verified is a result of any one or combination of below points:

1.) When you are using a card, which Google can't verify/accept.
2.) Your card is already linked to another suspended/active Google Ads account.
3.) You are using any prepaid card OR One-time card OR any virtual card OR card generated form any website and not the physical card OR card not issued by a bank.
4.) You are using someone else card (Billing Name or Card Holder Name name doesn't match), which Google thinks stolen OR can't relate to your account OR the card is already linked to any another google account.
5.) You are using a card outside your base location or country/city and your bank blocked the transaction because of suspicious activity on your card. Make sure of this, with your bank.
6.) Currency selected in your account is different than your card basic currency.

some your points are not true, for example 2 or 6.

1. mostly not, when google wont accept it says they dont accept and there r so limited amount of bins that get accepted and dont work
2. doesnt matter, you can use same card multiple times
3. card doesnt hv to be physical, read google tos it clearly suggests to use virtual cards when needed
4. billing, name, address and other info doesn´t hv to match, u can use even other name on billing than google account owner name. As said earlier, same card on multiple accs work fine
5. It can be but then google would say the card is not accepted, change/check your card info
6. Google wouldn´t accept the card if that would be the problem
 
i have run warm up campaign but when i run for clickbank its spend few $ then ads disapproved for malicious software and circumventing system policy violation
 
Try using Amex prepaid cards.. BIN Check em too, they look legit on the backend.

Privacy.com might be another solution to try

I would swap the card info when you get the account and start running campaigns that are going.. do some warmup too like others mentioned with the included credits first maybe?
 
I have made this myself a number of times with my adwords account. my experience:

if you just create an adwords account you usually use a normal bank account that is linked to the campaigns that always only go well for a while. why? because google would like them to be able to debit the account you have with them immediately. what has always worked for me is adding a credit card to the payment method and removing the old payment method, in my case the account will be released within immediately / maximum 1 working day. if this is not your problem solution, you must send the support an email they will respond by corona within 1 to 2 weeks and release the account (this happened to me 2 weeks ago).
 
Log in to your account, pay your balance and contact AdWords to let them know that you have paid your dues. Your account will be suspended if Google detects suspicious behavior in your payment activity. ... Unfortunately, some violations are deemed too serious and Google may never allow you to advertise again.
 
You should ask your bank for a VCC bank account so each paying method don't ever affect you again.

Each VCC will be used as a 1 off bank account from your main bank account.

Endless payment opportunity

Because it from Your bank, there more legit then pay as you go accounts.

Each VCC gets your bank reference with good banking grate.

Many banks offer this know.
 
I never use google. I use Bing. Bing is the best. We all should start using BING.
