How to request refunds from Google Ads?

04/06/2025

Suspect Google Ads invalid clicks? ClickSambo helps identify this click fraud via suspicious patterns (traffic surges, high bounce rates, repeated IPs, untargeted locations).

To claim a refund:

  • Gather evidence using your ClickSambo dashboard.
  • Submit Google's click quality form, providing details like dates, campaigns, and suspicious IPs.
  • Submit & wait (refunds aren't guaranteed).

Important: Proactive prevention with ClickSambo is more effective than seeking refunds; it blocks invalid clicks in real-time, saving ad spend.
