Google Ads & AdSense Reporting Delays

Google Ads Reporting Delays

Both Google Ads and Google AdSense are having reporting delays.

Update: Google posted another message on their Google Ads developer blog:

Update: Frank from AdSense confirmed the AdSense specific issue in the Google AdSense Help forums saying “We’re sorry, data in your AdSense reporting is delayed. Your metrics for May 1 and May 2 may be affected. Our team is working to fix the issue. There’s no impact to ad serving or payments.”
