I’m not an administrator of my Google Ads account – how can I connect Adsroid?

In many companies, the person setting up Adsroid is not an administrator of the Google Ads account.
This is extremely common when the account is managed by an agency or by another team internally.

If this is your case, don’t worry — you can still move forward.

This article explains why administrator approval is required and how to request it in one click.

Why administrator approval is required

Adsroid connects to Google Ads using Google’s official Manager Account (MCC) system.

For security reasons, only an administrator of the Google Ads account can approve this connection.
This ensures that:

• Access is explicit and secure
• Permissions are transparent
• Access can be revoked at any time from Google Ads

If you are not an administrator, Adsroid cannot finalize the connection by itself — but this is expected and normal.

What to do if you are not an admin

If you are not an administrator of the Google Ads account, the solution is simple:

👉 Ask an administrator to approve Adsroid’s access

To make this easy, Adsroid provides a pre-filled email request that you can send directly to the account administrator.

How to request access (recommended method)

Follow these steps:

1. Identify who the administrator of the Google Ads account is
   (this is often a manager, an agency, or a senior marketer)
2. In this article, use the access request link below
   This link opens your email client with a ready-to-send message
3. Review the message if needed, then click Send

That’s all you need to do.

👉 Request administrator approval

Use the link below to open a pre-filled email addressed to the Google Ads account administrator:

[Request Adsroid access from an administrator]

(This will open your email client. No email is sent automatically.)

What happens next?

Once the administrator receives the email, they only need to:

1. Open the message
2. Click the Google Ads invitation link
3. Accept Adsroid’s Manager Account access

The approval takes less than 30 seconds.

As soon as the invitation is accepted, Adsroid automatically detects it and activates your account.

Is this safe?

Yes.

• Adsroid uses Google’s official permission system
• No passwords are shared
• Adsroid does not get admin rights on your account
• Access can be removed at any time directly from Google Ads

This is the same access model used by agencies and Google Ads partners.

Common situations where this happens

• Your account is managed by an external agency
• You have “Standard” or “Read-only” access
• You are part of a larger organization with centralized permissions

All of these cases are normal.

Still pending?

If access is still not active:

• Make sure the administrator accepted the invitation
• Confirm the correct Google Ads account ID was used
• You can send the access request again at any time
