Do older Facebook ad accounts perform better than newly created ones?

Yes I got better results with aged accounts compared with new accounts. If you use a new account and the reach grow fast your account risk being banned but with older accounts is not this issue
 
Usually, older accounts will guarantee campaign performance and account limits.
They can spend with larger budgets.
 
I think account history can definitely have an impact, but it is not the only thing that matters. A good payment history, stable activity, and proper campaign management seem to play a bigger role in the long run. An aged account with poor setup will still struggle compared to a well-managed one.
 
The history behind the account probably matters more than the age itself. An account that has normal activity will usually have more trust than an old account that has been sitting unused. The campaign side still plays a huge role though. Its a mix.
 
In my opinion, the setup is more important than the age of the account.
 
Old accounts are better but only if you use them right, and yes sometimes they can get suspended too

I’m wondering why new accounts tend to get locked when their reach grows rapidly. Could you explain that to me?
 
From what I've seen, account age by itself isn't a major performance factor. An older ad account may have more historical data and a longer track record, but that doesn't automatically translate into better campaign results.
 
It's clear that the old account with spending history is better than a new one. especially when you run difficult product, old account is more stable, but old account can still be disabled, it can't live forever.
 
I've seen mixed opinions on this topic.
Some advertisers believe older ad accounts benefit from having more historical data, while others think campaign setup and optimization matter much more than account age.
Based on your experience:
- Have you noticed any difference?
- Or do you think account age has little impact?

I'd appreciate hearing real experiences rather than assumptions.
In my experience account age matters less than strategy Strong creatives proper targeting consistent optimization and clean account history usually outperform simply having an older ad account

They have higher trust and can run more expensive campaigns. But as far as the actual ads go, newer and older accounts with the same budget have the same ROAS it's just that older ones can spend more.
 
Setup and optimization of the campaign are significantly more important than the age of the advertising account. The older account can have some historical information, but in my opinion, it does not make any difference if the basics of the campaign are not right.

Do the services on older accounts—where we distribute ads—perform better than the new accounts you don't have?

You share the same view as many people. I am also using both types of accounts simultaneously to evaluate them. Which type are you using?
 
Account age itself is basically irrelevant, it's a correlation-not-causation trap ppl fall into — older accts just LOOK like they perform better bc they got more historical pixel/conversion data feedin the algo n usually skipped the "new advertiser trust period" throttlin, but a fresh acct w/ tight targetin n solid creative will outperform a 5yr old acct that's been run like shit, every damn time.
But there is one more important point: when I run ads for casino campaigns that heavily violate policies, do older accounts—which have a good spending history—survive Facebook's sweeps longer?

Both have been tried by me over the years, and I haven't found that having an older account works any better than a newer one. As long as it's a healthy account, I focus more on how my campaigns are set up and optimized rather than on its age.

I am running casino campaigns, which frequently trigger severe Facebook policy violations. Could you offer some advice on how to effectively use these aged accounts? Thank you very much.
 
From what I've seen, account age by itself doesn't make much difference. A well-structured campaign with good creatives, proper tracking, and consistent optimization usually has a much bigger impact. An older account with a solid history can help with stability, but it's definitely not a substitute for good campaign management.
