I just spent an hour trying to find examples of charity ads on Google Maps. I found plenty for charity shops including Oxfam, British Heart Foundation, Sue Ryder and a few others. But couldn't find a single one using a Google Ad Grant; all these ads were running out of paid accounts. I searched in the UK and US for many kinds of nonprofit, same story.

Seems that few Ad Grant holders have heard that they can put ads onto Google Maps, even though it's been possible to do so since December 2024 and was officially announced in June 2025.

Why so little uptake? Probably because in all that time there's never been an official announcement in the ads dashboard to say that this new feature was available. Hardly anyone knows about it.

I've been running ads on maps for a children's museum, and a community cafe, and a hiking charity. If you want visits to your location, this is an ideal way to achieve it. You can even see how many location visits that ads led to, so you'll know if it's effective. Got a chain of charity shops? Put ads for them on Maps for free.

I've made this lesson in my Google Ad Grants course a public preview, so you can watch the video and learn how it's done.
