Publishing ads on Facebook can sometimes hit a snag when the platform requests phone number verification. This article outlines a simple and practical workaround, allowing advertisers to keep their campaigns running smoothly without delays or complications.
If your ad account doesn’t have a verified phone number, you might encounter this error when trying to publish an ad:
“You must have a verified phone number associated with your ad account.”
To bypass this restriction, follow these steps:
- Set the ad to pause before publishing.
- Publish the ad while it remains paused.
- After publishing, simply unpause the ad.
That’s it – your ad is live without needing to verify a phone number!
