​

Step 3: Add a Partner to Manage Ads

  1. In the left menu, go to Users → Partners.

  2. Click “Add” and then “Give a partner access to your assets.”

  3. Enter the Business ID of the partner you want to give access to.

  4. Choose Ad Account and select the level of access:

    • Admin Access – full control

Step 4: Verify and Finish

Tips for a Smooth Setup

  • Use a business email, not a personal one.

  • Make sure your ad account is active and payment method is set up.

  • Grant Advertiser access if you only want us to run ads, not manage all business info.
