Default Facebook Ads Geo-target is not accurate!

I live in Singapore and I see ads targeted for Singapore in facebook. Now I'm in holiday in another country and still seeing ads targeted for Singapore

I have also noticed the ads I ran today in facebook shows 81 clicks, but the stats from my cpa networks shows just 51 clicks

Facebook's geotarget is based on your registration, that's why.

Then it is loss of money for people doing cpa offers that target just few countries.

But I read somewhere that they track the ip not the registration.

As Lance stated its based on the country you registered with, you should always add your own geo-targeting to your landing page to avoid issues caused by this
