Setting up payment methods 

Payment methods are required to create ads on Facebook. Follow these steps for assigning payment methods when you first set up your Business Manager.

3 Define permission levels in the “Finance roles” section. Choose “Finance editor” for those who will need to access credit lines or invoice details, and choose “Finance analyst” for those who will only need to view the information.

1 Go to Business Manager – People and select the person who needs the role.

2 Select the edit icon next to the person’s name. In the dialogue box under “Finance role”, make the appropriate selection.

3 Update email addresses that need to receive invoices in Payments – Account credit – Invoice emails. 

View Unpaid delivery (balance) of credit line and general health in Settings – Payments. Share your credit line with other Business Managers that need to access it, such as agencies. After you have completed the initial setup for payment methods, you can create ad accounts and assign payment methods and lines of credit to them as needed, on a day-to-day basis.
