Is it ok to hide the Google AdMob Banner sometimes when i need some space?
Some ads are paid per impression and not per click. So will google realize that the banner is not visible.

The accepted answer might be outdated.
In this help thread from 2018, Google's Mobile Ads SDK Team suggests that you may simply remove the view from its superview or set its alpha
to 0:
GADBannerView is simply an UIView and you can either use the alpha to zero or remove it from superview(). You can treat like you would treat any other UI element when it needs to be hidden and the SDK does not provide any specific APIs for this.
It will request the Ad but will not count it as an impression of the Banner when View is hidden.

It is against the Terms to hide the banner, especially on a pay per impression click.

If you are paid per impression, I would assume that whatever Ad displaying library you're using is smart enough to know whether the frame is actually visible to the user.
