Can I use different VCCs for different Facebook Ads campaigns within the same account?

SeoGuru

Yes, you can use different Virtual Credit Cards (VCCs) for different Facebook Ads campaigns within the same account, but there are some important considerations to keep in mind when managing multiple payment methods in Facebook Ads. Here's how you can manage this effectively:

How to Use Different VCCs for Different Facebook Ads Campaigns:
1. Facebook Ads Payment Method Settings:
Facebook Ads Manager allows you to add multiple payment methods to your account. However, Facebook does not allow you to assign different payment methods directly to individual campaigns.

Instead, you can set a primary payment method that will be charged for your overall ad account, and payments will be deducted from the primary method when campaigns run.

2. Using Facebook Ad Accounts for Different VCCs:
While you can't assign a separate VCC to individual campaigns within one Facebook Ads account, you can create multiple Facebook Ad Accounts under the same Facebook Business Manager and assign each ad account a different payment method (VCC).

For example, you could have one Ad Account A linked to VCC 1 and a second Ad Account B linked to VCC 2, allowing you to run separate campaigns with different VCCs.

Steps to Use Different VCCs for Different Campaigns (via Multiple Ad Accounts):
1. Create Multiple Facebook Ad Accounts:
Go to your Facebook Business Manager (business.facebook.com).

Under Business Settings, navigate to Ad Accounts and click on Create Account.

Create a new ad account for each VCC you want to use.

2. Assign VCC to Each Ad Account:
Once you've set up your ad accounts, go to Payment Settings for each account (from the Ads Manager or Business Settings).

For each ad account, add a different VCC as the primary payment method.

3. Run Separate Campaigns in Each Ad Account:
You can now run different campaigns within each ad account. Each ad account will use its respective VCC for payments, keeping your payment methods separate for each campaign.

Alternative: Create Separate Campaigns with Specific Payment Limits
If you're trying to control spending limits rather than using completely separate payment methods, you can set up budget caps for each campaign. While this doesn't allow you to choose separate VCCs, it can help manage your spend on specific campaigns. You can do this by:

Setting up daily budgets for each campaign.

Monitoring your ad spend closely to ensure each campaign stays within its allocated budget.

Important Considerations:
Facebook Payment Policy:

Ensure that each VCC you use complies with Facebook's payment policies. Some VCCs may have restrictions, and using unsupported payment methods may result in payment issues or account suspension.

Multiple Ad Accounts:

Be cautious when creating multiple ad accounts. Facebook has a limit on the number of ad accounts that can be created under a single Business Manager (typically 25). Exceeding this limit might lead to account restrictions, especially if Facebook deems the accounts are being used fraudulently.

Payment History:

Each Facebook Ad Account has its own payment history. You'll need to review payment statuses separately for each account to ensure that the correct VCC is being charged for each campaign.

VCC Funding:

Make sure that each VCC has sufficient funds for the campaigns linked to it. If a VCC runs out of funds or encounters an issue, the campaign will likely fail to run, and you may need to resolve the issue with your VCC provider.

Conclusion:
While you cannot assign a different VCC to each individual campaign within the same Facebook Ads account, you can set up multiple ad accounts and assign a different VCC to each account. This allows you to run separate campaigns under different VCCs, keeping your payment methods distinct for each campaign.
