No ads showing in my android app since long time and in my admob console there is a card written on it:
Your ad serving is disabled
Your ad units are not serving ads in your app(s) and you’re not being paid. This is because you haven't verified your payment address. Please contact support to verify your payment address.
After I followed the steps in the contact support, it is required to request a replacement PIN
and the steps for requesting a replacement PIN are:
Sign in to your AdSense account.
On your AdSense homepage, find the PIN verification card and click Verify. (You might need to click View more to reveal the card.)
...
The problem is when I open my Adsense home page, there is nothing except this message asking me to upgrade to Adsense to display ads on my site.
How do I solve this problem ?
Had the same problem - no PIN verification card on dahboard in AdMob. And the solution was to login to adsense account (https://adsense.google.com) and verify PIN there.
First, add payment method.
Second, you may need to provide your tax information in AdMob depending on your country.
Third, verify the account holder's personal identity at Google Pay.
Finally, the PIN card will be available in Google AdSense under the payments option/tab.
I followed the tip to try Google Adsense and didn't need to create a website. From what I've seen, the Admob account links with the Google Adsense account, which makes it easier.
With that, I was able to resend my PIN, so I'm currently waiting for it to arrive.
So
1- Click on Apply now
2- I didn't need to create a website, so just click "I don't have a website" and proceed. If for some reason it doesn't work and you need to create a website, try the following link for free: https://www.000webhost.com/)
3- Enter your Email, Then click Ok
4- At the top of the page you open will be in red, very small, a warning about blocking ads due to lack of verification. Click on "Action" below
5 -Scroll down to verify your payment address
I have the exact same problem... the help page says
On your AdSense homepage, find the PIN verification card and click
Verify. (You might need to click View more to reveal the card.)
...but there is no "Verify" button!
PS: My address is correct on the Profile page, and I only have the following Payment Method:
The only thing I can think of is that it's tied to a (different) specific Payment Method?
I had the same problem. Make sure you´re looking at the AdSense dashboard, not the AdMob one. The verify payment option should be under Payments -> Verification check.

I've received a letter from Google today. It should contain PIN which verifies my address, so I could pay out money I've earned from ads on my Android app. Instead it is a business verification code for some company - or at least what I think it is. It says Google My Business on the inside and has 5-letter code as well as these 3 steps:
Visit google.com/verifymybusiness
Sign in to your Google account.
Enter your verification code and submit!
I've typed once already this verification code on AdMob site, but it said it's incorrect. After 3 failed verifications the ads will be suspended, so I just want to be sure - if that could really be the Google mistake and I should just wait for "Ask for new address verification PIN" link to unlock on AdMob site? I've sent them an email as well, but I don't even know if the address was correct, because it was so hard to find and it was through some help form...
Today, which is 3 days after I received first letter (with wrong informations), I got second letter from Google - now, with Google AdSense PIN, which correctly confirmed my address!
My guess is to be patient. ;)
We found 1 error. Insufficient Installation History: Your account does not have enough install history to start using billing event for mobile app install ads. Please visit https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/ads-api/cost-per-action-ads/ to learn more.
I got above error in facebook advert page. I am new on this please help me.
Thnxx
When your account/app is new, it is usually not allowed to use CPA bidding (optimization goal and billing event set to APP_INSTALLS). You'll need to use impressions or clicks based bidding first and get a few installs that way. Then you can switch to CPA.
There is no official info about the amount of installs, but when you get over 1000, it's usually enough. The number is also tied to account where the ads are created, so you may be allowed to promote your app for installs on one account, while another account is not allowed to do that for the same app yet.
Facebook has a tool called App Ads Helper, where you can check what types of bidding are available for your app and account.
Here's the relevant part from FB docs at the url mentioned in your error message
You will not be able to buy CPA for mobile app installs unless you have already reported back some installs and your account id-app id-mobile store trio has been deemed non-fraudulent. In the meantime, your ad creation call will fail.
I understand Admob is getting an overhaul, but I don't see why I can't sign up for an Admob account.
I am using my Gmail account, but when I go to https://apps.admob.com/admob/ a red bar at the top of the page shows up saying "An error has occurred. Refresh the page and try again".
I don't even have Adblock downloaded, as I know that helped some people. Also, my secondary Gmail account seems to be able to proceed on from the first step. I really think I should be using the same Gmail account that is also used for my Android developers account.
I have contacted support and they say simply open an incognito window (and I have done so), and I made sure some of the network certificates are cleared, and that my extensions were disabled.
Any insight would be appreciated. The account will be 18 in less than a month if that helps at all, and I also was about to go through the Adsense process (I don't think I actually sent my application).
An ad blocker can cause this as well. Disable ad blocker and try again.
In your adsense account go to access and authorization section and click on AdMob account and select current account as preferred account.
This may not have been the best place to ask this question but I have seen similar.
Basically, there have been some big revisions to the Admob service, so if you happened to have submitted an application with Adsense, your account may get the error I described above. The best advice I can give is just to contact the Help Center!
I'm no expert but I created an android app that accepts a payment for a download then gives the customer that download once payment is confirmed. I used the PayPal SDK for Android, their example app is here https://github.com/paypal/PayPal-Android-SDK which I am basing my code on.
My little app works well, I'm very pleased with it. I have one BIG issue, should a customer want a refund I go into PayPal to issue it, if they paid via PayPal login it's easy, scroll down, look for their name or email and click refund. If they paid by direct card payment it's very different. If you go into papa and look you can spot the card payments quite clearly, they have no name or email attached to them, in fact there is no personal detail to associate the payment to them at all.
How on earth is that acceptable? I can't locate a customers payment in PayPal to even know if they really are a customer. Surely it should at leafs be able to give you a name?
Am I missing something in the SDK? Is there perhaps a field I'm not populating that puts detail into the Paypal transaction?
Any help and / or code snippets would be very much appreciated.
At this time, your app should correlate the payment ID returned by the SDK with your customer/sale and communicate this back to your server. This way, you can use the payment ID to get the associated transaction ID to refund.
I'm currently working on an application for a small company I work for. I'm happy to, and the company has agreed, that they are happy for me to host the application under my own developer account for now.
If I do this, and later on we transfer the app to the companies own dev account (which I will get setup in the future), will users still receives updates as per normal? They should not have to uninstall and reinstall the app once it's live in the new dev account correct?
Thank you!

Update:
Now you can manage Owner and User Accounts:
https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/2528691?hl=en
You can add users and grant them permissions to create/draft and publish apps.
So, Basically you ask the final owner create the publish account (as the owner). And only add you/developer (as a user) with proper permissions to upload and update app.
