📋 Overview
If you purchased a Pro yearly plan through a summit promotion (such as the March 6, 2026 offer), you may be wondering whether Google Ads (Smart Ads) is included in your subscription. This article explains how to verify your add-on status and activate Smart Ads so you can start running campaigns right away.
✅ Is Smart Ads Included in My Promotional Pro Plan?
Smart Ads availability depends on the specific terms of the promotional offer applied to your account. Summit promotions vary, and not every promotional Pro plan automatically includes the Google Ads add-on. Here is how to confirm what is included in your plan:
- Click your avatar (Account Menu) in the top-right corner of the platform.
- Select Settings from the dropdown menu.
- Navigate to the Integrations tab (sibling to Team Members).
- Look for any active add-ons or connected services listed under your account. If Smart Ads is included, it will appear here as an enabled integration.
If you do not see Smart Ads listed or enabled, your promotional plan may require manual activation or the add-on may need to be applied by our team.
🚀 How to Access Smart Ads Once Activated
Once your Smart Ads add-on is confirmed and active, you can access all Google Ads features directly from the left sidebar. Here is where to find each section:
- Campaign Hub: Left sidebar → Smart Ads → Campaign Hub — create new campaigns, optimize existing ones, group by brand, set up retargeting, and refresh data.
- Campaign Performance: Left sidebar → Smart Ads → Campaign Performance — review performance metrics across your active campaigns.
- Campaign Audit: Left sidebar → Smart Ads → Campaign Audit — identify issues and improvement opportunities.
- Negative Keywords: Left sidebar → Smart Ads → Negative Keywords — manage keyword exclusions to reduce wasted ad spend.
- Reports: Left sidebar → Smart Ads → Reports — generate and export campaign reports.
- Meta Hub: Left sidebar → Smart Ads → Meta Hub — manage your Meta advertising alongside Google Ads.
🛠️ What to Do If Smart Ads Is Not Visible
If you do not see the Smart Ads section in your left sidebar after logging in, follow these steps:
- Log out of the platform and log back in to refresh your session.
- Clear your browser cache and reload the page.
- Check that you are logged into the correct account associated with your promotional purchase.
- Confirm your subscription is active by going to avatar (top-right corner) → Settings → Integrations and reviewing your plan details.
If Smart Ads is still not visible after completing these steps, your add-on may not yet have been applied to your account and will require our team to activate it manually.
