Complete Setup:
ISP Proxies
You can use any ISP proxies. Some providers call them Static Proxies. They are proxies with just 1 IP address that never changes.
We do this so that once we setup the profiles on our anti-detect browser we will be able to log into from at any time from anywhere in the world and facebook won’t raise any flags about it.
TIP: Keep your GEO consistent across your entire setup.
If you have a usa card for payments, then your profile should also be usa and so should your proxy. This isn’t a hard set rule as I’ve ran asian profiles on usa proxies with cards from other regions but it’s better to be safe and keep it consistent.
Recommended:
I’ve used them for a long time with no issues.
Alternatives
AdProxies, MyPrivateProxy
Anti-Detect Browser
There are dozens of anti-detect browsers these days.
Recommended:
It’s been my main browser for over two years now without any problems.
Alternatives
Only alternative I can say is good is MultiLogin, as all the other ones (specifically the free ones) have either outdated anti detection, weak security or have been part of some security breach/hack.
Account Setup
The secret to an immortal setup is having access to everything spread across multiple profiles, business managers, ad accounts and pages. And use the facebook sharing system to build a net of asset access that can run together but can be cut off like cancer if any of them get restricted.
Account Structure:
Profile Setup
This is the main administrator profile you will use to link all assets together, add payment methods, add team members etc..
What Profiles to get:
USA - Same as proxy and billing
Aged - The longer the better
Reinstated - Reinstated profiles are profiles which already got restricted, reviewed and then reinstated back. They are stronger than normal profiles since they’re already been reviewed by meta.
This is the backup profile to the main administrator. It should have all the same admin perms as the main one but you will only use this profile if as a backup incase the main one is ever compromised.
This is the profile you will actually run your ads through. Launch campaigns, upload ads, daily monitoring etc.. is all done through this profile.
The holder profile just holds all your assets. That includes your pages, pixels, datasets, instagram accounts etc... anything that your media buyer profile needs access to will be held and granted permission from this holder profile.
For extra layer security I would also make seperate holder profile for each one of your stores/business.
Business Manager Setup
Business manager meta changes every few months as meta is always changing what they allow and don’t allow as well as theres always a sweeping ban wave a few times a year that wipes out a bunch of BMs.
For example: Until a year ago you could still get NO LIMIT BMs which let you to make ad accounts that can immediately start spending 1k+ USD per day. This doesn’t exist anymore.
As of writing this the best BMs you can get a BM5 250’s which means they are Business Managers with 5 availible ad accounts which have a $250 daily spending limit.
This is just incase your primary gets banned so you can link your assets up to the backup BM and start running straight away without having to hurry to set everything up from scratch.
Your Holder Business Manger is the BM which will hold all of your business assets like your page, pixels, datasets, instagram accounts etc.. and then share access to them to your administrator and media buyer profile and BM.
Holder Assets
Pages are the easiest to buy and don’t need anything special besides being aged. You can also make them yourself and just let them sit for a few months on your profile before you start using them for ads.
Tip: Avoid buying pages with likes, verifications or anything else. Just get a basic blank empty page that’s been aged.
Just make these yourself with your Holder Profile inside your Holder BM and share the access with your admin and media buyer profiles & bms.
Don’t need any special steps here just have an IG account which you made yourself or bought, can even manage it from your phone then just login and link it to your holder bm and share access with your admin and media buyer profile & bm.
Where to get assets from?
Sellers for these assets you can find on telegram in hoards but the issue is that most of them are shit.
Payments Methods
Setting up your billing page correctly is vital after going through the entire account warmup. If you accidentally screw something up during billing you get restricted immediately.
Which card provider you use matters. Because sometimes some providers work and some don’t. Nobody besides zuck knows why but its probably has to do with botters and black hat scammers abusing certain cards and meta blocking those providers temporarily.
TIP: Never reuse a card that’s been linked to a restricted ad account or bm.
Any cards linked to a real physical bank like Amex, BOA, Fargo, Citi etc.. will always work but its hard to get multiple cards so I don’t recommend them.
Most digital banks have the benefit of being able to create unlimited virtual cards instantly.
I can recommend Mercury & Slash for business cards
Other digital banks you don’t need an llc for are Wise & Revolut.
The main problem with digital bank cards is that facebook knows they are virtual cards which can be generated infinitely and they are the main type of card they they like to block.
To get around these blocks I’ve been using crypto cards which are unique cards with real physical addresses and are much less likley to get blocked by meta but you need to top them up with crypto.
I usually just put a few hundred dollars on there as I only use these cards for the initial verification and getting a few billings on it before i switch over to my mercury or slash card.
Complete Facebook Ads Setup Guide
A comprehensive guide to establishing and maintaining a robust Facebook ads infrastructure
Introduction to Basic Requirements
Before beginning any setup, you'll need to acquire several essential tools and services:
1. An anti-detect browser (preferably Octo Browser, costing around €29/month)
2. Residential proxies (never datacenter proxies)
3. Access to IPQS for proxy verification
4. A spreadsheet program for documentation
5. Access to profile/BM suppliers
Part 1: Foundation Setup
Understanding Profile Text Files
When you receive a profile, you'll get a text file containing various pieces of information. The critical elements you need to focus on are:
- Login credentials (email and password)
- Cookies
- User Agent string
- 2FA details (if included)
- Any additional security information
You can ignore elements like random strings or numbers - focus on the core login and security details. When processing these files, simply use the enter key to separate information cleanly rather than trying to parse it programmatically.
Proxy Configuration
Your proxy setup is absolutely crucial - it's the foundation of your account's security. Here's how to do it properly:
1. Purchase a residential proxy (static IP only)
2. Configure it as HTTP in your anti-detect browser
3. Test the proxy on IPQS to ensure:
- It shows as residential
- Has a clean trust score
- Matches your target location
- Shows no red flags
Never change your proxy after initial setup - this is a critical rule that many overlook.
Anti-Detect Browser Setup
The proper configuration of your anti-detect browser is essential:
1. Create a new profile for your account
2. Configure proxy settings first
3. Import the cookies from your profile text file
4. Set the user agent exactly as provided
5. If you're using a Mac but the profile was created on Windows:
- Contact your seller specifically requesting Mac-compatible profiles
- This prevents fingerprinting mismatches that could flag your account
