Most agencies charge a service fee on top of the actual Facebook ad spend.
Some providers offer leads at a fixed lower cost, usually by generating them through their own ad accounts and selling the data to you — not by giving access to your own campaigns.
Yes, there are semi-grey providers who offer cheaper leads, but they use their own methods and setups. Always vet the source and lead quality before buying.

Most agencies charge their fee on top of FB ad spend for management, not rogue leads. Semi-grey providers exist, but tread carefully cheap leads can be low-quality or risky

It depends on the agency. Some charge a service fee on top of the actual ad spend, while others offer cheaper leads using optimized campaigns or alternative methods.
Just be cautious with "semi-grey" offers , they can carry risks.

If you're looking for cheaper leads, focus on building your own channel with tested angles, companies often mark up the cost, while grey market sources are higher risk.

For cheaper leads, build your own channel with tested approaches. Companies often inflate costs, and grey market sources carry higher risks.

No company will charge based on leads. The effectiveness of your advertising depends on your content, sales,...

They charge that on top of the ad spend because most agencies don't take the risk to run the ads and not know how many leads will have so they pas this risk to buyers

As with most things, it really depends. Generally though, you should expect fees on top of the actual ad spend since that usually covers the usual overhead (setup, management, creatives, etc.)
Not a hard rule by any means, but cheaper leads usually mean they're running grey or selling bulk, typically low-quality leads sourced via blackhat. Again, just an observation on my part. That may be of value to some, but it's risk-reward. Cheap doesn't mean profitable.

Most legit agencies charge their fee on top of actual Facebook ad spend. If you’re seeing super cheap lead prices, it’s likely from grey methods (like reused traffic, incentivized clicks, or sketchy geo targeting). Always ask for source + ad spend breakdown to be sure.
