🧐Introduction

When we go to the tab "Ad Account", we see all the accounts that we have on all accounts. If you first select a specific account(s), then we will see the offices of the selected account. If there is no cabinet in the list, make sure that the social account has sufficient rights for this cabinet (Administrator rights must be set). Without Administrator rights, social accounts will not be displayed.

Let's divide the tab into 4 points and consider each of them:

  1. Basic functions for working with the cabinet

  2. Additional functions for easy sorting

  3. Ad Account information

  4. Statistics

Basic functions for working with the Ad Account

  • Tags - add a tag to the account, by which you can easily sort accounts later

  • Create ad - You can read how to do your first pour here.

  • 3 dots

    • Attach bank card


      After creating the FP, you need to link the cards to the advertising offices. This is very easy. Select the accounts that you want to process, using the checkboxes, go to the tab "Ad Account". Choose the accounts that you need, then "Three dots" and "Bind the card".

      В этом окне введите карту или список карт в таком формате: 1111222233334444;01/21;888;CARDHOLDER NAME;ZIP;VAT ID.
      ⚠️VAT ID (12 digit TIN of the card) - at the moment you can add for geo Ukraine billing.

          After entering the data, click "Continue" and you will be taken to "Data check".

          ⚠️Note pay attention to the "Parallel execution" and "Pause between Ad Account" sliders. This only works if you are linking cards to classrooms from different accounts with different proxies. If the cabinets are within one account, this functionality does not matter. Also, if you have, for example, 10 cards, but the cabinets for the binding of 100, you can assign the cards (on the left there are two choices). If sequentially, then the 10 cards will be tied in turn 10 times. The 1st card will be at 1, 11, 21, 31, 41 ... etc. cubicles, the 2nd card will be at 2, 12, 22, etc. If every N classrooms, the 1st card will be tied to N classrooms, the 2nd card will be tied to the next N classrooms. For example, a total of 100 classrooms, N is set to 12. For the first 12 classrooms the system will try to attach the 1st card, for classrooms from 13th to 25th the 2nd card, etc.

          After selecting the desired data, click "Bind".

    • Transfer to prepaid - is an option to quickly and easily change the form of payment on the cabinets. The functionality doesn't trigger limits, doesn't change currency and country, but simply switches the cabinet to prepaid. For your convenience, we have added an indication of whether the cabinet is prepaid or not.
