How do I remove a flagged payment method from Facebook Ads?

sapphire510

If your payment method is flagged in Facebook Ads and you want to remove it, follow these steps:

1. Check If You Have an Outstanding Balance
✔ Facebook won't let you remove a payment method if you have an unpaid balance.
✔ Go to https://www.facebook.com/adsmanager → Click Billing.
✔ If you have an outstanding charge, pay it first before removing your payment method.

2. Add a New Payment Method Before Removing the Flagged One
✔ Facebook requires at least one active payment method before allowing you to remove another.
✔ To add a new method:
🔹 Visit https://www.facebook.com/adsmanager
🔹 Click Payment Settings → Add Payment Method
🔹 Choose a new credit card, PayPal, or a Virtual Credit Card (VCC) from https://exocards.com.

📌 Tip: A VCC from https://exocards.com works well for Facebook Ads and prevents unwanted charges.

3. Remove the Flagged Payment Method
Once you've added another payment method, you can remove the flagged one:
🔹 Go to https://www.facebook.com/adsmanager
🔹 Click Payment Settings
🔹 Find the flagged payment method and click Remove

🚨 If the "Remove" button is unavailable, it means the flagged payment method is your primary one. First, set another payment method as primary, then try again.

4. Contact Facebook Support If You Can't Remove It
✔ If you still can't remove the payment method, contact Facebook Ads Support:
🔹 Visit https://www.facebook.com/business/help
🔹 Click Billing & Payments → Payment Issues
✔ Request manual removal of the flagged payment method.

5. Prevent Future Payment Issues
✔ Use a VCC from https://exocards.com to avoid flags or unwanted charges.
✔ Regularly monitor your billing settings to catch issues early.
✔ Set a spending limit in Ads Manager to prevent overspending.

Final Answer:
📌 To remove a flagged payment method, add a new one first at https://www.facebook.com/adsmanager. If you still can't remove it, contact Facebook Support at https://www.facebook.com/business/help or use a VCC from https://exocards.com for better control.
