I want to give a try again to Facebook
I stopped creating campaigns on Facebook after my account had been banned and now I have a new account for several months. I searched this forum for nearly an hour to find some information on how to create campaigns on Facebook following their new rules. What CPA offers are doing well today and that we can run today? Does someone can suggest some posts, case studies etc?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Running campaign of Affiliate Offers completely are not allowed on FB Ad actually. If you still want to running them, just use your tracking link, not affiliate direct link. The best solution now...cloaking!

I think that some offers like gaming are allowed. I thought to run ads through a fan page.

Sure, through a fan page is more safer.

Nonsense.
Facebook does not specifically discriminate against affiliate offers. In fact, is there really such a thing as an 'affiliate offer'. What is this supposed to mean? Affiliate marketing is just a type of performance marketing wherein some business provides action-based commission to a marketer for their efforts.
You could argue that agencies working on a CPS or rev-share basis are doing affiliate marketing. Lead generation for local businesses, clearly an affiliation with some business that provides compensation. In my opinion the word 'affiliate' is completely misunderstood and misused by many.
But I digress. Check Facebook's Advertising Guidelines.
https://www.facebook.com/ad_guidelines.php. Check all offers you want to run against MyWoT. Never direct link to an affiliate link because a) the network's tracking domain may be blacklisted and b) geo-redirection causes issues. Don't touch dating. Learn about the new ad types and ad dimensions -

Relatively safe verticals: Daily deals, shopping and retail offers, eBooks, mobile apps, gaming, unique lead gens, insurance. Ideally go for low payout offers and stay away from CPS and high ticket offers. Again always vet your offers to check their suitability to run on FB - no point sending users to something that FB will auto-disapprove based on MyWoT scoring. Don't take the advice of AMs as gospel regarding what offers are working on Facebook. If they're working, that doesn't mean they are doing so via compliant campaigns.
Use the power editor. I highly recommend writing down a plan for how you create campaigns to avoid disapprovals due to errors in tracking setup for example.
I wouldn't bother with fanpages to start - this adds more steps into the transition from eyeballs on ads to the user doing what you want - and you have to deal with the bleed from likes/shares/comments etc. that you pay for.
Hope this sets you on a better track! A substantial guide to starting out on FB will be coming soon so there will be no more need to rummage through old threads (my posts are scattered, even I can't find them hah!).

So does Google, it's all about running compliant stuff on major traffic sources like Facebook, Google, etc. The ones who know how to do it are the ones who are reaping the rewards. I don't understand why people are just way too attached to this major traffic sources don't like "affiliates" kinda thinking.... They just don't like ONE SINGLE THING which is "deceptive marketing", period.

That is exactly what my FB reps told to me, "Affiliate are not allowed".

Not sure who you talked to, but it's a patently false statement. You're an affiliate are you not? Maybe they mean lots of affiliate network domains are blacklisted, which is borderline inconsequential.

Yes definitely I'm an affiliate, but when I apply FB Biz Account, I am an advertising agency. Yeah, make sense, i think so they blacklisted network domains.

Why do you need whitelisted network domains? Can't you use your own domains? Also some networks can setup custom links for you direct to offer page.
