How to check your account balance for automatic payments
- Go to Summarywithin the Billing menu
- In the current month’s card, you can view your current balance amount with a negative or positive sign and how the activity took place. Here's what this means:
- Negative numbers show an account credit that can be used for future advertising costs. If you're using automatic payments, you'll find a negative account balance only if you've decided to make a payment for more than your previous balance.
- Positive numbers show the amount that you owe for ad activity you've already accrued. If you're using automatic payments, your balance will usually be positive unless you've made a payment for more than your previous balance
