Why Is My Campaign Still "Pending" After 24 Hours?
Most campaigns are reviewed within 24 hours, but the process may take longer in some cases due to high demand or additional verification checks by YouTube.
What Causes Delays?
High Submission Volume – Campaigns are reviewed in the order they are received.
Ad Policy Compliance Checks – Some campaigns require extra scrutiny to ensure they meet YouTube’s guidelines.
Unusual Activity Flags – If a campaign triggers YouTube’s internal review process, it may take longer for approval.
Should I Cancel and Resubmit?
No! Canceling and resubmitting will move your campaign to the back of the queue, causing further delays.
What Can I Do?
Wait for the review to complete – Your campaign might already be in line and will be processed as soon as possible.
Double-check compliance – Make sure your video follows YouTube’s ad policies to avoid additional delays.
