Home / Meta ad account help
Meta ad account restricted while promoting your mobile app?
App campaigns are reviewed against the store page, the SDK setup and the claims in the creative.
App advertisers are usually restricted for creative that shows features the app does not have, a store page that does not match the ad, or an SDK or tracking setup that the system reads as misuse. Compare the ad with the store listing, correct the claims, check the app’s event setup and appeal once with your developer account details.
Check the event setup
Duplicated or unusual events can look like misuse.
Use your developer account
Proof that you own the app supports the appeal.
What usually sits behind it
- Creative that shows features the app lacks.
- A store page that does not match the ad.
- Odd or duplicated events from the SDK.
- A new developer or business account without history.
What to do
- Read the notice and note the policy.
- Align the creative with the store listing.
- Check the app event setup.
- Appeal once and send us the notice if it stays restricted.
What to send
- The ad account ID and the business portfolio ID, if you have one.
- A screenshot of the notice in Account Quality, with the date visible.
- What you were advertising and what changed just before the notice.
- Who the admins on the account are.
Please do not send passwords, login codes, card numbers or access tokens.

Staying safe
Nobody needs your password or login codes to help you. If someone in your DMs offers to fix it, asks you to log in through their link, or wants to be paid in gift cards, walk away. Unbanz never asks for logins. We are an independent paid service, not affiliated with Meta: payment is upfront, with a 100% refund if the case fails. For Facebook and Instagram cases we work through our contacts at Meta, and Meta makes the final decision.
Ad account questions people also ask (2026)
What are the usual reasons for an ad account restriction?
The common ones are a declined or disputed payment, a billing country or currency change, a sudden spend increase, repeated rejected ads, a login from a new device or country, unverified business details, or an admin whose personal profile is itself restricted. Account Quality usually names the policy.
Where do I request the review?
Go to Account Quality in Meta Business Suite (business.facebook.com/accountquality), select the ad account, and use Request review if it is shown. For a personal ad account, open Accounts Center, then Account status.
How long does an ad account review take?
Meta does not state one. While you wait, do not open new ad accounts or move spend to a fresh profile, which can be read as circumventing systems. Check Account Quality for status rather than resubmitting.

Updated November 2026
Ad account, Page and Business Portfolio restrictions are reviewed in Business Support Home (formerly Account Quality) on a computer, by an admin. Open the restricted asset, read the reason, then request a review once. If an admin’s personal profile is restricted, that comes first. For agencies, see the agency hub and Business Portfolio appeal links.
Should the agency or the client request the ad account review?
Either can if they are an admin. The person who knows the account history best should write it.
What to send us
- The username or profile link.
- A screenshot of the exact notice, with the date visible.
- Whether you already appealed, and what Meta replied.
- Whether you still have the email and phone number on the account.
- Never your password or login codes.
Send it on WhatsApp or to team@unbanz.com.
QUICK ANSWERS
Good to know.
Does it matter which app store?
Both stores are checked. The ad should match the listing.
Can a new app be restricted?
Yes. New apps and new accounts get more scrutiny.
Should I remove the ad?
Pause it while you fix it, then appeal.
Do I need to share my Facebook password?
No. Your password and login codes stay with you. Unbanz works from your public username, the notice and the details you send. Anyone who asks for your login is not someone to work with.
How do I contact Unbanz about a Meta ad account problem?
WhatsApp +1 934 201 2490 or email team@unbanz.com. Send your username and a screenshot of the notice, if there is one.
Tell us what you need.
