  2. Access Meta's help center

    • Visit the help center provided by Meta for Facebook Ads.

    • Look for information regarding the management of billing emails.

  3. Update email address in Facebook Ads

    • In your Business Manager, navigate to the settings for billing and payments.

    • In the Payment methods section, click the three dots next to the credit line.

    • Enter companyname+facebook@cardboard.email as the billing email on the Edit billing information screen and click Save changes.

    • Ensure that all Facebook Ads billing notifications are directed to this email.

Benefits

  • By using service-specific email addresses for billing, you can centralize and streamline your financial management in Cardboard.

  • This approach simplifies tracking and managing expenses for Facebook Ads in the same place as your other subscriptions.

NOTE: This only works if your business is set up for monthly invoicing, in which case, you can designate email addresses to receive your invoices at the Business Manager level and ad account level. This may be a helpful option if you work with an agency or partner who manages your ads.


Facebook Ads - for payments by card

Introduction

For payments by card, Facebook (Meta), unfortunately, does not allow to change the billing email. Hence we have created an easier way to organize and match receipts in Cardboard to save frustration and time managing these ad payment receipts.

  1. Receipt upload

    1. Go to Accounting > Receipt upload

    2. Here you have two options: either you can (a) bulk upload the receipts into our system, or (b) send them by email to Cardboard, and we will sort and match them for you automatically.

  2. Receipt upload > direct upload

    1. Use the drag and drop feature for an easy way to upload receipts, or click to upload from your system.

  3. Receipt upload > by email

    1. Send all receipts as PDF to your company-specific Cardboard email.

    2. This email can be found on the Receipt upload page for your account.

Benefits

  • This approach simplifies organizing and automates matching receipts for Facebook Ads in the same place as your other subscriptions.

  • You save time chasing and manually matching receipts for bookkeeping.
