How to Pause Your Campaigns

Need a break from leads? You can pause any of your markets yourself in the Geek Dashboard. You don't need to wait for us to approve it.

Before you pause

You can pause up to 30 days per calendar year. If you pause for longer, we may offer your area to companies on our waitlist. We pay our bills by selling leads, so we can't hold an area open with no leads running.
We won't warn you before we offer your area to someone else. We tried that in the past. It confused the new company and slowed everything down. If your area is still open when you come back, great. If it isn't, that is the risk of a long pause.
A pause starts at least 3 days from today. Our campaigns need that time to wind down.
Want to stop for good? Cancel the market instead. See How to Cancel Your Services.

1. In the left menu, click Markets. Then click the market you want to pause.

2. On the market's Settings tab, find the Pause row. Click Schedule a pause.

3. Pick a Start date. The earliest date you can pick is 3 days from today.

4. Pick an End date. To pause until you restart it yourself, leave End empty.

5. Click Schedule pause.

That's it. Your ads stop on the start date and start again on the end date.

Want your leads back sooner? On the market's Settings tab, go to the Pause row. Click Restart pause now. Your ads start running again.

Use the same button to end a pause that has no end date.
