DV360 Partner Account

Plan your move to a full DV360 partner seat with expert guidance at each step.

A DV360 partner account is the top level in Display & Video 360. It holds billing, contracts, users and all the advertisers below it. Getting your own partner seat usually means a direct agreement and spend commitments, so most teams start under a reseller seat and move up as spend grows.

Last updated: 11 November 2026

A central settings hub connected to five advertiser accounts around it.

Who is the Partner Account for?

  • Agencies

    Larger agencies with steady programmatic spend that want their own partner-level setup.

  • Brands

    Big brands building an in-house trading desk that need full control at the top level.

  • SMEs and growing businesses

    Most smaller businesses do not need this. A self-serve or child seat is usually a better fit.

What's included?

Everything you get with this setup, agreed in writing before we start.

  • Readiness check on spend, team and processes
  • Partner-level structure plan (advertisers, users, roles)
  • Help preparing for the seat application process
  • Billing, permissions and safety settings design
  • Migration plan from a reseller or child seat
  • Training for your trading team
  • Ongoing advisory support if needed

DV360 Partner Account: frequently asked questions

Do I need my own DV360 partner seat?

Most teams do not at first. A partner seat often comes with spend commitments and more admin. A child seat or self-serve account is often a better start.

Who approves a partner seat?

Google decides who gets a partner seat. We can help you prepare, but we cannot guarantee approval.

Can you move my campaigns from a reseller seat?

Yes. We plan the move so audiences, Floodlight tags and reports carry over where possible. Some history may stay in the old seat.

What does this service cost?

We usually charge a fixed fee for advisory and setup, agreed upfront. Ongoing support can be added as a monthly fee. Contact us to discuss.
