Why Is My Facebook Ads Account Limited?

Why Are Facebook Advertising Permissions Restricted?

Recently, many domestic enterprises have reported encountering permission restrictions while using Facebook for advertising campaigns. This phenomenon has attracted widespread attention, especially in the cross-border e-commerce and international marketing sectors. For instance, the head of a certain cross-border e-commerce platform mentioned that their advertising efforts on Facebook had been smooth until recently when they suddenly found that some functions of their account were restricted, including the inability to create new ad campaigns and adjust existing ad budgets.

This situation is not an isolated case. Many companies attempting to resolve this issue have found that Facebook's reasons usually involve violations of advertising policies or abnormal account activities. However, specific details about which policies were violated or what kind of abnormal behavior occurred are often not clearly explained. This leaves both businesses and operators feeling confused and helpless because it is difficult for them to identify the root cause and take corresponding improvement measures.

From a technical perspective, Facebook's review mechanism for advertisers is very strict. It not only requires ads to comply with its global unified standards but also uses complex algorithms to detect potential risky behaviors. For example, if an account creates a large number of similar ads in a short period of time or uses third-party tools not recommended by Facebook to manage ads, it may trigger system alerts. Facebook also conducts regular security checks on all active accounts to prevent the spread of threats such as malicious software and phishing websites.

In response to the aforementioned situations, it is recommended that affected enterprises first review their own operation records to ensure there are no violations. At the same time, they can contact Facebook’s official customer service for more detailed explanations and support. It should be noted that although Facebook provides multiple language service channels, due to time differences, the response speed may be slower. Therefore, it is important to prepare thoroughly in advance, including organizing relevant proof materials such as copies of business licenses and clearly describing the specific problems encountered.

In addition to these efforts, seeking help from professional agencies can also be considered. In recent years, as Chinese enterprises accelerate their internationalization, many specialized teams focused on overseas social media marketing have emerged. These teams typically have rich experience and technical capabilities, enabling them to help enterprises better understand and respond to changes in Facebook's rules. For example, a digital marketing company located in Shanghai successfully assisted several clients in resolving similar issues and helped optimize their overall marketing strategies.

In summary, facing the situation where Facebook advertising permissions are restricted, staying calm and actively communicating is crucial. Only by thoroughly understanding the underlying causes and taking targeted solutions can normal advertising operations be effectively restored. This also reminds us that when conducting cross-border e-commerce businesses, we must not only focus on product and service quality but also strengthen learning and compliance with laws and regulations of target markets. This way, we can maintain a competitive edge globally.
