How to Properly Link a Card to Facebook for Instagram Advertising and Which Cards to Choose

To start advertising on Instagram, settings must be made in the Facebook Ads advertising account. Additionally, payment for promotion is required, and to do this, a payment card must be linked.

How to link a card in Facebook for advertising on Instagram

Technically, the card is linked in Facebook Ads in the "Billing" section - "Add payment method".

There are several nuances that need to be considered in order to avoid Risk Payment and increase the trust of the account:

• In Facebook Ads and Instagram, it is important to always log in with the IP of the correct location for all payment and advertising actions. Undetectable Browser can help with this.
• Adhere to the rule: 1 account = 1 proxy = 1 card. If you link the card to several accounts, when Facebook blocks the payment, it will block all associated accounts.
• Ideally, the location of the card should approximately match the account and IP location. For example, if the location is in Europe, the card should be from the same country or a neighboring one.
• It is advisable to use cards from locations that Facebook considers trustworthy. These are Tier-1 countries, such as the USA, Western Europe, and also Ukrainian cards. Visa and Mastercard cards inspire trust in Facebook.
• The card should only be linked after the account has been created and has aged. A few days should pass after the account has been created.
• Make several payments from the card. For example, make a purchase from an online store after going from Facebook and logging in. This will increase Facebook's trust in the card.
• There should be a small amount of money on the card, around $1 - Facebook will deduct this money and then return it to verify that the card is working.
• After the card is linked, gradually increase the limits. It is not recommended to immediately launch an Instagram campaign with a large budget.
• It is not necessary for the card to have a name - anonymous virtual cards work well with Facebook. However, the BIN - the first 6 digits - should not be visible to first-party fraudsters.

Which cards are better to use

Facebook actively fights fraud and strictly reviews all cards. There are separate blacklists of unreliable banks and BINs that were used by first-time advertisers. It is important to choose a card that is not on these blacklists.

A convenient option is prepaid virtual cards. No bank account is created for them. You need to pay for their issuance, but you will not need to present a passport. The prepaid card is replenished immediately during issuance.
