Create and manage invoice groups

This article is intended for advertisers who are using monthly invoicing to pay for their ads. If you need help with billing and currently pay for ads with a PayPal account, credit card, debit card, bank account or manual payment method, see Billing basics instead.

An invoice group is a way for you to get a single, consolidated invoice for multiple ad accounts you have that are using monthly invoicing to pay for their ad costs. When you create an invoice group, you'll receive just one invoice a month for all the ad accounts in the group, instead of separate invoices for each. On the invoices that you receive for an invoice group, the ad accounts in the group and the amount that they spent will appear as a line item alongside their ad account number, ad account name and advertisers. Certain invoice groups may receive multiple invoices due to the number of accounts and locale. If you currently receive a large number of invoices each month because you have a lot of ad accounts that are set up for monthly invoicing, creating an invoice group can help you reduce this number and manage your billing information.

You can create and manage invoice groups from the Payments section of your business settings.

Before you begin

Before you try creating or editing an invoice group, bear the following in mind:

  • You must be an admin or a finance editor of a Business Manager to manage invoice groups. Learn more about finance roles in Business Manager.
  • Campaign names won't be included on invoices generated for an invoice group like they are on a regular invoice. However, you can still get this information by running an invoice and campaign report, which you can learn more about in this article.
  • If you also advertise on Instagram, the amount that you spent on Facebook and Instagram ads will be split on a separate line, so one ad account may appear twice on your invoice.

Steps to create an invoice group

  1. Go to the Payments section of your business settings.
  2. Click the monthly invoicing option that you want to use an invoice group for.
  3. Click Invoice Groups.
  4. Click Add Invoice Group.
  5. Review the Facebook Invoice Group Terms and Conditions.
  6. When you're ready, click Agree.
  7. Enter a name for the invoice group.
  8. Enter an email address for the invoice group's invoices to be sent to.
  9. Select the ad account that you want to add to the invoice group.
  10. Note: Ad accounts already in another invoice group can't be selected because an ad account can only be in one invoice group at a time.
  11. Click Confirm.

Your invoice group will be saved. Moving forward, ad spend for the ad accounts that you added to your invoice group will be grouped into a single invoice. You'll also have the option to add a new ad account to your invoice group when you're creating a new ad account from Business Manager.

Steps to edit an invoice group

  1. Go to the Payments section of your business settings.
  2. Click the monthly invoicing option that's associated with the invoice group you want to edit.
  3. Click Invoice Groups.
  4. Next to the invoice group you want to edit, click Edit group.
  5. Make any desired changes to the group name, group email address and associated ad accounts.
  6. Click Confirm.

Changes to your invoice group will be saved.

Steps to delete an invoice group

  1. Go to the Payments section of your business settings.
  2. Select the monthly invoicing option that's associated with the invoice group you want to delete.
  3. Click Invoice Groups.
  4. Next to the invoice group that you want to delete, click Delete Group.

Your invoice group will be deleted. Moving forward, ad spend from the ad accounts that were in the deleted invoice group will no longer be combined into the same invoice.
