How to Add and Manage Payment Methods in Meta Business Suite

Overview

Managing your ad spend starts with correctly setting up your payment methods in your Ad Account. Inside Meta Business Suite, you can securely add business payment details, control billing, and avoid campaign interruptions.

Why Payment Method Setup Matters

• Keeps Ads Running – Active payment methods prevent ad pauses due to failed charges.

• Centralizes Billing – All receipts and invoices are stored in Meta Business Suite for easy reporting.

• Supports Multiple Methods – Assign different cards or payment sources to different ad accounts.

• Business Ownership – Payments are tied to the business, not personal accounts.

Adding a Payment Method

1. Log into Meta Business Suite

• Go to business.facebook.com.

• Select your Business.

2. Go to Payment Settings

• From the left menu, select Billing & Payment Methods.

3. Click Add Payment Method

• Choose from:

  • Credit or Debit Card

  • PayPal (where supported)

  • Bank Account (direct debit, select countries)

  • Business Credit Line (if available)

4. Enter Payment Information

• Fill in your billing details.

• Make sure the billing address matches your bank records to prevent errors.

5. Assign to Ad Account

• After adding, select which Ad Account(s) this payment method applies to.

Managing Payment Methods

• Primary vs. Backup – Always set a primary payment method, and consider adding a backup to avoid interruptions.

• Edit or Remove – Go to Payment Settings → select the payment method → Edit or Remove.

• Check Spending Limits – Adjust or reset account spending limits if you hit your cap early.

• Download Receipts – In Billing, view and download invoices for accounting.

Best Practices

• Always Use a Business Card – Avoid personal cards for professional ad spend.

• Add a Backup Method – Prevent downtime in case your primary card fails.

• Monitor Spend – Regularly review invoices to track ad costs across accounts.

• Stay Consistent with Currency – Match your payment method’s currency to your Ad Account setup (note: currency cannot be changed later).
