Billing Setup — Facebook & Instagram Ads
Step-by-step
Add or update your payment method
- Go to Business Settings → Payment methods.
- Select your Ad Account (top-left selector).
- Click Add payment method and enter your card details.
- Set it as Primary.
- Click Save.
KBR Tip:
Use a business credit card. If it expires, update it here to avoid ad pauses.
Control spend
Set an account spending limit (optional)
- In Ads Manager, open Billing (left sidebar).
- Click Payment settings.
- Find Account spending limit and click Set.
- Enter the maximum you want to spend (e.g. $500), then Save.
- When you hit the limit, your ads pause until you raise or reset it.
KBR Tip:
Great for first month control. Remove later once you’re comfortable.
Invoices
Find and download invoices
- Go to Billing → Transactions.
- Use the date selector to choose the month.
- Click an invoice to view and Download PDF.
If you can’t see billing, you might be in the wrong Business or Ad Account. Use the top-left selector to switch.
Troubleshooting
Common billing issues
- Payment failed: Update your card, then click Retry on the alert.
- Ad account paused: Check if you hit your spending limit.
- Can’t see the settings: Ask your admin to grant Finance Editor or Admin access.
KBR Tip:
Keep one active primary card to avoid disruptions. Remove old cards once replaced.
