What Is a Google Ads Agency Account (MCC) and How Does It Work?

A Google Ads MCC (My Client Center) is a manager account that links to your advertiser account — it does not replace or take over your account. Portcast handles MCC setup, account linking, and ongoing Google Ads operations with your account ownership intact.

  • Your Google Ads account stays registered in your name
  • MCC access terms documented before any linking begins
  • Fit review before any work starts
  • No guaranteed approval from Google's review process
