After Meta's recent algorithm updates, the number of bans has noticeably increased — especially when launching ads from new accounts or linking cards. But with a well-structured approach, most risks can be minimized right from the start.
Single GEO – the key to trust
Your entire setup should be unified under one GEO:
Ad account,
Bank card,
Proxy.
The most trustworthy configuration is typically set up under USA.
This reduces the system's suspicion and allows for more stable launches.
High-quality, premium proxies
Bad proxies are one of the most common causes of Risk Payment. Follow these guidelines:
Use IP Quality Score to check the IP before launching;
Avoid cheap options, especially shared IPs across multiple accounts;
Prefer residential proxies with a high trust level.
A cheap proxy might save you $10–20, but could cost you a trusted account with solid spend and a well-trained pixel.
Card linking: use a boost strategy with a pause
Before linking a card:
Let the account rest for 24 hours after creation;
Use the boost post method – run a simple post for $2/day;
Don’t link the card right away — wait until the account shows some light activity.
This approach lowers the chance of a Risk Payment flag when linking a card.
️If the risk already hit – there's a Plan B
Here’s an old but effective trick:
Go to Ads Manager → Settings;
Click “Deactivate Ad Account”;
Facebook will automatically create a new account;
You’ll get a second chance to link your card without triggering the risk again.
