Taboola campaigns are unable to pause on the network if they are in a pending status. Maximus will archive the campaign, but if a campaign is approved by the content review team at Taboola and it is past its start date, the campaign will become active and begin receiving traffic. We recommend checking on campaign statuses of campaigns which have been paused while they were pending to prevent the campaign from spending.
