Would appreciate direction from anyone who has succeeded lately.

I haven't had to use Facebook ads since January, but as at then paying through PayPal worked. Did you try that already?

No. Any other means apart from PayPal?

Hi, I use Facebook Ads frequently, and I have certain questions for you. 1. Is your Ad account a dollar account or a Naira account? 2. If It is a dollar account, when last did you run ads, and are you sure your account is funded?

Your answer will make it easier for me to proffer a solution to your Ad issue.

A first-timer running Facebook ads. Tried paying in Naira.

Okay. Depending on what bank you use, you should be able to make payments in Naira. I have my card details registered under my Ad accounts, so whenever I boost a post, it just charges me directly.

You could however try resetting your Billing Threshold in your Ad account settings (If you do not have an Ad account, you should set one up at business.facebook.com , just so you can run ads within a particular amount.

you would have to use the "Pay U" option to make using Naira.

hey James.

I might need your help. Im having issues with payments.

Acually, sometime last year i did an ad and it was successful, but the money wasn't deducted completely. (i believe the money is charged per day for the period of the ad.)

The problem is, something went wrong with the account i used and the money could not be deducted so im owing some money (about -N-1,400.00)

Every card i've used to make payment when im asked to add payment method gets declined.Id appreciate any form of help/assistance Thanks
