Facebook's spending limits are dynamic and often drop if ad activity pauses, especially on new ad accounts. When you pause for a few days, Meta may reset your trust level, which is why your limit dropped from $250 to $50.
1) Resume Spending Consistently
Start running ads again at $50/day or slightly under. Gradually scale back up over a few days.
2) Avoid Pauses in New Accounts
Keep campaigns active, even with low spend. Frequent pauses reduce trust signals.
3) Use a Verified Payment Method
Add a credit card with a clean history (avoid prepaid or shared cards).
4) Build Trust Through Spending History
Facebook increases limits based on spend consistency, timely payments, and no policy violations.
5) No Manual Request Option
Unfortunately, there's no way to manually request a limit increase—it's automated.
Tip:
If the account is business-critical, consider running a small, always-on campaign (e.g. $5–$10/day) to maintain stability.
