Microsoft Ads Credits (Bing Ads)

Microsoft Advertising offers a spend-match promotional credit for new accounts running Performance Max campaigns. Reach the spend tier within the promotion period and Microsoft credits the same amount back to the account:

• Spend $500 → receive $500 in ad credit
• Spend $1,000 → receive $1,000 in ad credit

The credit is issued by Microsoft and can be used for further advertising across the Microsoft Advertising Network, which includes Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo and Microsoft's partner properties.

Adcore is a Microsoft Advertising Elite Partner across several regions, including EMEA, APAC and Australia. Elite Partners can extend Microsoft's promotional credits to accounts connected under their manager account. Our partner profile is listed in the Microsoft Advertising Partner directory.

Microsoft sets the rules and may change them. At present an account generally needs to:

• Be newly created (within the last 30 days)
• Run Performance Max (PMax) campaigns
• Record at least $1 of spend
• Reach the chosen spend tier within 90 days of the credit being applied
• Be under a manager account that has not already received a promotional offer

Full terms are published in Microsoft's promotional offer details and may vary by market.

One promotional credit per manager account (MCC). Additional accounts under the same manager account are not eligible for a second credit.

Yes. Connect your manager account and the credit can be applied to an eligible account beneath it, subject to the one-credit-per-MCC rule.

A single account needs at least $1 of spend in the last 30 days. A manager account needs at least one active account with $1 of spend and no more than 200 linked accounts.

Connecting your account through Adcore Connect places it under Adcore's manager account. Microsoft may send an approval request confirming the link. This link is what makes the account eligible; it does not give Adcore control over your campaigns or payment methods.

In Microsoft Advertising go to Billing and Payments → Payment methods → Promotional offers. Allow up to 7 days after the spend tier is reached for the credit to appear.

Common reasons: the spend tier has not been reached; the 90-day window is still open and the credit is pending; Microsoft is still processing the credit; an eligibility condition was not met; or the promotion is restricted in your region. If everything looks correct, contact support.

Yes. From the moment the promotional credit is attached to the account, you have 90 days to reach the spend tier and use the credited amount. Unused credit lapses at the end of that period.

Yes. You can open a new Microsoft Advertising account during the flow and connect it immediately. If your domain is not approved, update the site and reapply, or try another domain. You will receive the account details by email once it is created.

Contact support and we will remove the link to Adcore's manager account. Disconnecting before the credit is applied may forfeit eligibility.

Microsoft Ads credits are a Microsoft Advertising promotion, funded, approved and applied by Microsoft under its own terms, which may change without notice. Adcore Connect facilitates eligibility but does not guarantee that a credit will be granted, its amount or timing, and is not liable for credits delayed, declined or revoked by Microsoft. Credits have no cash value and may only be used for Microsoft Advertising spend. Microsoft Advertising and Bing are trademarks of Microsoft Corporation.
