3 min read
Before you can create a campaign you need to make sure you have two separate permissions on the Facebook side. Only a current manager or page admin can grant these permissions from their Facebook account settings.

The permissions you need to launch a campaign
To set up and launch a Facebook Ads campaign with Wix, you need to get two admin permissions from Facebook. You need to be the admin of both:
- The Facebook page where you want to run the campaign
- The Facebook Business Manager associated with that page
Facebook operates on a 2-layer permission system to make sure each person in the account has the access they need. That's why you must have access to both the Facebook Business Manager as well as the specific Facebook page where the campaign will run. Learn more about Facebook's Business Manager roles and permissions.
Not sure if you already have the necessary permissions?
You can check your current page role from 'Page Roles' section of the relevant Facebook page.
