How Can I Increase My Daily Budget? Stuck at $250/day :( (24)

How Can I Increase My Daily Budget? Stuck at $250/day :(

I'm stuck at $250/day and it's severely limiting my impressions/social reach.

I just emailed the ads team pleading to get $5000/day limit to maximize my impressions, and I reassured them that I'm only trying to grow my community on my SEHabitat fb page. That campaign is the only campaign on the account's history, too. So hopefully they'll help me.

What do you think? Is there a better way I can increase budget now?

Thanks

Did you spend $250 for 4-5 consecutive days ? I guess if you do, they increase it automatically, provided payment from your card goes through everytime.

It's been 4 days. They will only increase it to $500 though, right? I'm looking for at least $1000. I hope they respond. Anyway at least it DOES increase automatically by a little.

Yup, automatic increase would go like 50>250>500 and so on and after $1000 you gotta ask for manual approval.

Hope they respond to your request. I know it sucks with limited budget.

Good luck :-)

Thanks - hopefully i have an edge since there's no trace of affiliate stuff

Sometimes they will just increase it to $2k, I got mines increased to that automatically a few times

50 - 100 - 250 - 350 - 500 - 750 - 1,000 - 2,000

That's how it increases. Usually when you get around the $500 or $750 spend a day and your campaigns are clean, they will increase you straight to $2,000.

I think it's also important where you are from. I did't spend $10 a day, and they increased me from $50 to $2000. I think someone from The Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland will be increased sooner than someone from (for instance) India

Mine went $250 -> $350 -> $2,000.

My newborn : 50-300-400-500 pretty damn annoying

@allthegold
2 acocunts of mine in the last 3 months have been $250 -> $350 -> $2,000 as well. Just pass the 5-6 day barrier and you'll 100% be upgraded to higher daily spend

11-19-2011 01:14 AM #12 zeno (Administrator)

I went $250 -> $500 (3 days later?) ->$2000 (2 days after that). It takes time, just keep maxing out your budget daily.

Yeah, it can be pretty random sometimes - Definitely make sure you're as consistent as possible in hitting that daily budget though.

I ran really clean stuff and it went $60 and on the 4th day it was increased to $250 and half an hour later went to $2000

Sounds like no problem - unfortunately BofA declined my latest $250 charge to protect me... getting really old. must be since i withdrew from ATM here in Korea while I'm here... So I had to add another card to FB... i hope that failed charge doesn't hurt my daily budget ramp up too much

11-19-2011 03:38 AM #16 maynzie (Moderator)

Oh no man, everyime I have added a second card to my account and paid with it I have gotten the suspicious payment activity and banned

I went from $250 to $2k automatically in 2 days.. is your account new? I was also driving likes for one of our fb pages

What! How'd that happen? Did you request or they just increased it?

11-19-2011 11:23 PM #19 sm1810 (Member)

Just increased it

It's the 4th quarter of the year and FB will definitely want to make more money despite of their strict rules.

3 accounts of mine went from --> 50 --> 250 --> 350 --> 2000

I had an account that hit $250 every other day, and I believe that FB was checking my account to upgrade it to $2000, but one of the gaming offers went down and it was redirecting to an email submit and got 60 ads disapproved and only bumped to $350

I hear ya Dan! I just don't get some of these network knuckleheads who make the redirect decisions. I had a mainstream dating offer that got paused and redirected to Just Hook Up. Fail.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Just logged into one of my accounts and it was risen to 2k.

I had a $60 budget, rpomoted some dating offers early last year then stopped using it. During this inactivity they increased my budget to $1,900. Now I'm ready to advertise with them again.
