Welcome to the Facebook Ads FAQ — here you’ll find answers to the most common Facebook arbitrage questions and practical solutions. Our BM error guide and help with Facebook bans cover bans, Business Manager limits, work via mobile SOCKS5 proxies and safe billing.

This page is built in a problem-solving format: each question comes with practical checklists.
Follow them to reduce the risk of bans and speed up your ad scaling.

FAQ List: Quick Answers

“What?” — terms, statuses, and account types (Facebook/Instagram/BM/Ads)

“How?” — step-by-step guides: setup, launch, linking, and deletion

“Where?” — where to find, log in, or buy: Business Manager, Ads Manager, sources, and access

“Why?” — why it matters: proxies, BM, Fan Page, warm-up, and limits

“Via...” — tools and platforms: antidetect browsers, proxies, API, Pixel, and CAPI

“Why?” — reasons for blocks, checks, and rejections (2FA, selfie checks, declined payments, creatives)

“Deactivated...” — access recovery and appeals (Facebook/Instagram/BM/Ads)

Account Registration and Bans

Why does Facebook block an account right after registration? Algorithms may flag you as suspicious if you violate community standards, your IP doesn’t match your GEO, or you register and get banned instantly. To understand why:

  • Check GEO-IP, fingerprint, and your first actions.
  • Open facebook.com/profile.php?id=… and make sure the profile is actually live.
  • If you see “Facebook — your account has been disabled”, submit an appeal immediately.

How to log in safely

  • Via cookies (JSON) — fast and reliable (recommended).
  • Via login + password + 2FA code — backup option.
Cookie-Editor guide (import cookies)
  1. Go to facebook.com and open the Cookie-Editor extension.
  2. Click Delete All to clear current cookies.
  3. Click Import and paste the cookie string from your order (starts with [{"domain":".facebook.com" ...}).
  4. Click Import again — you should see a success message.
  5. Refresh Facebook — you’ll be logged in automatically.

Extra tips:

  • Don’t open Ads Manager immediately after login.
  • Let the account “rest” for 10–30 minutes.
  • Don’t attach a payment card instantly — simulate normal activity first.
     

Business Manager: limits and unblocking

A new BM typically starts with a $50 limit. If you need a higher cap, consider accounts with BM $250+ limit. You can also increase the limit organically by gradually scaling spend and completing verification. If you see disabled Business Manager or BM errors — submit a ticket with KYC docs.

Proxies and IP: how to avoid bans

Why use mobile proxies if datacenter proxies exist? “Clean” 4G IPs reduce cases where Facebook bans you right after logging in from a new IP. Use mobile SOCKS5 proxies (single IP rotation / 5–15 min) or large rotating proxy pools.

Payment cards and billing

Use cards designed for Facebook billing — these are specialized cards for arbitrage with the right BIN/GEO. Errors like payment method declined and hold balance often happen when BIN doesn’t match or spend grows too fast.

Facebook ↔ Instagram linking

You can link Facebook and Instagram via “Accounts Center → Add”. Need to unlink? Use the same place and click “Remove”. After linking, switch to an Instagram business account and run ads from Ads Manager.

Account recovery / deletion

To recover a Facebook account: “Account Quality → Request Review”.
To delete an account, download your data, confirm, and remember you have 30 days to cancel deletion.

Error codes 902 / 906 / 957 and fixes

  • Code 902 — suspicious activity; change password and upload a selfie.
  • Error 906 — billing conflict; remove the problematic card and add a new one.
  • Error 957 — GEO mismatch. If the ad account is disabled, log in from the correct IP and restore it.
     

Glossary: PZRD, autoreg, farm

PZRD accounts — fully verified profiles.
Autoreg accounts — automatically registered accounts.
Farm accounts — manually warmed accounts to increase trust.

Account warm-up: timelines and checklists

Below is a basic warm-up timeline; an extended checklist is available in PDF.

  1. Day 1 — likes, feed scrolling.
  2. Day 2 — +5 friends, 1 comment.
  3. Day 3 — create a Fan Page.
  4. Day 4 — draft a whitehat campaign ($2/day).
     

Anti-detect browsers and profiles: what to choose

Top anti-detect browser: Dolphin {Anty}. Alternatives: AdsPower, Incogniton, Indigo, Octo.
Requirements: unique Canvas/WebGL, WebRTC leak off, correct Facebook fingerprint.

Meta policies: prohibited content and typical rejections

Study Meta Ads policies and avoid prohibited content.
Common rejections relate to nutra, gambling, adult, or crypto topics.

Fan Page, Pixel and events: minimum must-have

  • Fan Page with Page Quality > 4.
  • Install Facebook Pixel via Events Manager.
  • CAPI + Lead / Purchase events — a tracking must-have.
     

Contacting Meta support: template and screenshots

Use Business Help to submit a request, attach screenshots and a prepared appeal script — this speeds up review.

Scaling: renting vs buying accounts

Under $1,000/day it can be cheaper to rent accounts; above $5,000/day — buy Facebook accounts.

KYC / AML and high-volume risks

Meta may request KYC when daily spend exceeds ~$2,000.
Prepare KYC docs; otherwise you may face balance freezes as part of AML compliance.

Security: phishing, 2FA and access management

Enable 2FA for Facebook Business, consider a hardware key (YubiKey).
When sharing access, assign Editor/Advertiser roles to protect Business Manager from phishing.
