Create a portfolio bid strategy

30/11/2019
Starting in November 2017, you'll no longer be able to override your campaign bid strategies with ad group and keyword bid strategies. This change will help make it easier to manage your bid strategies.

You can still set ad group targets for CPA and ROAS strategies, as well as ad group and keyword CPC bids, but all ad groups and keywords in a campaign must use the same bid strategy. It’s strongly recommended that you remove all existing ad group and keyword bid strategy overrides. To use a separate strategy for a specific ad group, you can move it into a new campaign.

Portfolio bid strategies are automated, goal-driven bid strategies that help you optimize bids across multiple campaigns. They automatically set bids for every auction to help you reach your performance goals, and provide a single place for you to quickly change bidding settings for all campaigns that use a single portfolio bid strategy.

This article tells you how to create a new portfolio strategy when you’re setting up  a new campaign, in campaign settings, or in the Shared library.
