Facebook Setups for Arbitrage: How to Set Up and Avoid Bans?
Running traffic in Facebook Ads without a proper setup is like playing roulette. One day you're spinning ROI, the next, FB decides it doesn't like you—ban, account freeze, and frustration.
To avoid losing budgets and nerves, let’s break down what setups work, what tools to use, and how to stay in the game longer.
What Types of Accounts Exist?
FB isn’t dumb—it spots all the tricks. That’s why you need to know which accounts work and which don’t.
➖ Autoreg accounts – bot-created accounts. Short lifespan but disposable. A great expendable option.
➖ Personal accounts – manually created accounts. They last longer but can get banned instantly if they lack trust.
➖ Moms/Kings/Farmed accounts – aged, trusted profiles used to link autoreg accounts. FB is less aggressive with these, but they still carry risk.
➖ BM (Business Managers) – allow you to create and manage ad accounts.
➖ Spending accounts – previously used accounts with a history, making them more trustworthy to FB.
➖ Agency accounts – the best option if you can access them. Official agency accounts with high spending limits and a lower risk of bans.
👉 If you're a beginner – start with a personal account or BM.
👉 If you're scaling – use a combination of moms, BMs, and agency accounts.
How to Properly Link Accounts to Avoid Getting Banned?
Having accounts is one thing, but if you link them incorrectly, they’ll get banned faster than you burn your budget.
1️⃣ Personal account + own ad account
- The simplest setup: create an ad account within your personal profile.
- Con: If it gets banned, you start from scratch.
2️⃣ Mom/King + Autoreg accounts
4️⃣ Social profile + BM + Autoregs
- Use accounts with prior ad activity.
- Warning: If the previous owner ran shady ads, FB might ban them.
👉 For testing – a personal account + BM is enough ☑️
👉 For scaling – moms, BMs, and agency accounts are optimal ☑️
What Tools Do You Need to Avoid a Ban?
A good setup alone won’t save you. Without the right tools, FB will detect you in seconds.
✔️ Anti-detect browsers – hide your activity so FB doesn’t realize you’re using multiple accounts.
✔️ Proxies – without a proper IP, FB will flag you fast. Use mobile or residential proxies.
✔️ Payment methods – cards that pass verification without raising suspicion.
✔️ Tracker – without one, you’re just burning money without knowing what works.
✔️ Cloaking – if you're running gray-hat campaigns, you need page cloaking, or FB won’t approve your ads.
✔️ Fan Pages (FPs) – you physically can’t run ads without them.
Without the right infrastructure, even the best setup is useless.
Which Setup Should You Choose to Scale Without Struggles?
👉 If you're just starting → Personal account + BM, test carefully.
👉 If you're scaling → Mom account + autoregs + BM.
👉 If you want stability → Spending or agency accounts.
📢 Important: No setup lasts forever. FB updates its policies, and strategies evolve. The key is adapting quickly!
What’s the Secret to Long-Term Success?
Your setup is your armor in FB Ads. Without it, you’ll lose accounts daily and keep starting over.
