Hey! Let's talk about billing thresholds.

 

What's that you ask?

 

It's how Facebook charges you for your ad spend.

So when you're running ads. You're spending money, right? So if you want to know How Facebook Charges you for running ads well It all starts and ends with your billing threshold.

 

As you start running ads, your billing threshold will most likely start off on the lower side. For example, let's say your billing threshold is $25. Every time your ad spend reaches those $25. Facebook will automatically charge your debit card on file. and also raise your billing threshold higher. Pretty straight forward right?

 

This is how a billing Threshold works.

You can adjust your billing threshold by going into your business manager clicking on business tools and then going under the billing tab.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once you're there you can go into your payment settings and if you have already started running ads you will be able to see a history of all your previous transactions. You'll also be able to see if there are any unpaid bills left on your account.
