Anyone Tried Any Facebook API Ad Managers like these?

Does anyone use one of the pricey/official API-enabled ad managers like these?

I'm looking for one that isn't ridiculously priced since my campaign won't be huge and i'm not an agency at this time.

Become an agency

One of them has a free plan which allows you to put up like 50 ads a day.

It seemed fine for most stuff.

So if I become an agency on fb, will they give me API access? And then I'd have to create software to manage ads.

Wow, Keybroker is upfront about their pricing. I'll check it out and let you know. It's important to me that page/story ads are an option and they're unclear about it on their site.

Thanks bro

Personally I use SAM (Social Ad Manager). Their initial charge is 5% of your ad spend, % drops as you spend more. They have a 2 week trial option.

Pretty sure Polar uses Social Ads Tool.

I am REALLY liking Keybroker. How do you like SAM? That 5% is better than SocialAdsTool who have a min monthly fee of $680/mo

They told me that was the minimum fee, unless I hit more than $10k/month spend, then they'd switch to 5%.

I enquired with them about 6 months ago, they definitely told me there was a minimum $10,000/month ad spend with 5% creamed off, i.e. $500/month minimum to them.

I didn't bother to go any further with them, and SAM does everything I want and is constantly being developed/improved, so I'm happy.

Ya social ads tool always had the minimum as far as i know... Unicorns really are magical.

this is the response I finally got from them, had to reach out x2

Hi Steven,

Thanks for contacting us.

Our licence fees start at 5% of ad spend with a minimum monthly invoice of $680.

I’m wondering if this will fit into your budget.

Are you planning any growth in terms of ad spend over the next few months?

Best regards,
Jacob
