Facebook Business: Create an Account

Create a Facebook Business Manager (BM) account

Create a BM account

Go to https://business.facebook.com/overview to create a BM account:

• Sign in with a personal Facebook account that regularly interacts on Facebook. Do not use a fake or clone account. One personal Facebook account can create only 2 BM accounts.

• Avoid signing in to Facebook on an unfamiliar device to create a BM account. Use a device you normally use, such as your personal laptop at home or your own PC at work.

• Check whether your Wi-Fi IP address shows your actual location. Avoid an IP address that shows a location abroad, as Facebook will flag this as an unusual login.

• For the confirmation email, use an address whose domain matches your company's website. For example, for optimus.vn, the confirmation email would be abc@optimus.vn

• After filling in all the details, select Finish.

• Sign in to the BM account you just created at https://business.facebook.com/

Check whether your profile already owns a Business Manager (Facebook screenshot with Vietnamese posts)

• Select Business Setting or the gear icon in the upper-right corner.

Create a Primary Page

Each BM account needs 1 Primary Page to operate. If the person creating the BM account already owns a Facebook Page, they can easily make that Page the Primary Page in BM.

Under Pages, select Add > Request Access to a Page, then request access to the Facebook Page you own to make it the Primary Page in BM.

If you do not have a Facebook Page, you can create a new Primary Page. Select Create a New Page, then follow the steps and fill in the details to create a Facebook Page.

Create an App ID

Facebook requires an App ID before it allows business verification.

Go to Ad Account > Apps > Create a new App Id > Manage Business Integrations. Fill in all the details, including the app name and a company-domain email address. For App purpose, select: Yourself or your own business, then click Create App

Verify your business

After creating the App ID, verify your business under Business info > View Detail > Start Verification. Enter the required information and documents, then click submit to send them to Facebook.

Business verification methods: email or domain.

• Email: to verify, the email address domain must match your business domain.

• Domain: you must verify your business domain first. Use this when the email address has a personal domain or does not fully match the business domain.
