Regular accounts vs. agency accounts

[tma16]

Hi guys,

new to the affiliate marketing world. Was wondering what the big deal is with agency accounts? There are tons of people selling regular accounts for ad purposes but it seems like agency accounts are worth more?

That's correct, agency accounts are usually sold for anywhere between $1k to $2k for $500 spend limit. Higher spend limits go for even more. The biggest benefit is that you are much less likely to be banned if running ads for restricted (affiliate) offers. Agency accounts also get bumped from $500 - $750 - $1500 - $5000 Daily Spend Limits. Although from what I hear personal accounts can now be bumped to $5k spend limit too.

Main benefit of an agency account is you do not have to match your form of payment location (CC, VCC, Paypal etc) to the country the FB account was opened from; which is a critical point when advertising with FB and in need of several accounts.

That's the main reason.

On lower spend it doesn't matter that much, but when you are spending 3k + daily, billing details will get flagged by risk department.
