How to Stop Google My Business Images Showing in Google Ads

Are your ads showing image extensions you don't recognise? If it hasn't scraped them off your website, it's probably from Google My Business, and here's how you switch it off:

In Google Ads, from the Campaign screen, select "Assets" from the left hand menu.

On the right handside, click the 3 little dots menu for "Account Level Automated Assets".

On the right handside again, click the 3 little dots menu for "Advanced Settings".

Expand "Automated Locations" and deselect "Grant Google Ads licence to use merchant photos…"

Save your selection & that's all done.
