Does Facebook Ads require address verification for VCC payments?

SeoGuru

Yes, Facebook Ads requires address verification when using a Virtual Credit Card (VCC) for payments. This is a security measure to ensure that the payment method is legitimate and authorized for use.

Key Points to Keep in Mind:
Billing Address Matching: When you add a VCC to Facebook Ads, the billing address associated with the VCC must match the billing address that Facebook has on file for your account. This is the process known as Address Verification (AVS). If the addresses do not match, the payment will likely be declined.

AVS Check: Facebook will perform an AVS check to compare the billing address you entered on Facebook with the address on file with your VCC provider. If there is a discrepancy, Facebook may reject the payment.

Correct Billing Information:

Ensure the billing address you provide when entering your VCC into Facebook Ads Manager exactly matches the address associated with the VCC.

If you're unsure of the address associated with your VCC, check with your VCC provider or review your account details within their app or platform.

VCC Provider's Address: Some VCC providers (like Privacy.com, Revolut, or Wise) allow you to set or edit the billing address associated with your virtual card. Ensure that the address on file matches the one you enter in Facebook Ads.

Additional Verification: Some VCCs may require additional authentication or 3D Secure verification (a security feature for online payments) before the payment is successfully processed by Facebook Ads.

What to Do if Address Mismatch Occurs:
Double-check the address you've entered in Facebook Ads Manager to ensure it's correct.

If there's a mismatch, update the billing address on your VCC provider's platform to match Facebook's records, or update the information directly within Facebook Ads if possible.

Contact your VCC provider to confirm the correct billing address if needed.

Summary:
Yes, Facebook Ads requires address verification when using a VCC.

Ensure the billing address on your VCC matches the one entered in Facebook Ads to prevent payment issues.

If the payment is declined, check for any address mismatches and correct them accordingly.
