Facebook content monetization from ineligible country

1. Add a friend or family member in my home country (an eligible country) as an admin of the page and obtain full control in Meta Business Suite. I will be continue posting content to the page. I’m not sure whether this will make me eligible for an invitation to content monetization — I hope someone can clarify.
2. Use an anti-detect browser and a proxy to fake my physical location. I tried this, but I couldn’t even create a new account — it was banned instantly. If you know what I did wrong, please tell me.

This is a common issue and you're thinking along the right lines. Let's break down your options.

1. This is the correct and most sustainable approach. Facebook's monetization eligibility is tied to the entity that sets up the Payout Account, not necessarily the person uploading content. The key is that your friend in the eligible country must be the one to create the Meta Business account, add the page to it, and fill out all the tax and banking information with their own valid details. You can then be added as an Admin or Editor to the page itself to manage the content. The money flows to them, and they send it to you. This entire structure relies on 100% trust in that person. Facebook might still see you logging in from an ineligible country, but this is far less of a red flag than the alternative.

2. Your second method failed for a very specific reason: you tried to create a new account. Facebook's new account creation process is extremely sensitive to proxies and anti-detect browsers. It's one of their main lines of defense against spam networks. Even the best residential or 4G mobile proxy can be flagged when creating a completely new profile. This setup (anti-detect + proxy) is typically used for managing aged, warmed-up accounts, not for day-one creation. What you did was essentially walk up to their front door wearing a disguise, which is an instant ban.

The safest path is option 1. Find someone you trust implicitly to handle the business and financial side from an eligible country, while you focus on the content. Anything else is a constant battle against their security systems that you will likely lose eventually.
