Why should you not use Facebook Coupons

7 replies
I just had to create a thread here, I have seen a million threads asking for Facebook coupons

I have said this a million times and I am still saying. DONT USE COUPONS FOR FACEBOOK.
You will get a false idea because when you use coupons with facebook , you pay higher CPC ( the Facebook algorithm) and whatever you do, your click prices will not go down.

Eventually you end up paying a lot more than you actually should.

Most people use facebook coupons for testing purposes and with coupons you wont get real data. I have tried every possible way of using facebook so trust me for your own good.
Just start running ads without coupons.

Even when your coupon balance will expire, in the normal course your click prices are higher than what they should be. So basically that account where you used coupons is of no use

    I've never heard of paying more due to using coupons, but I have heard that by using coupons they put more visibility on your account, ads, etc

    Ok.. I used the coupon 8-9 months ago but now its expired.
    If I upload funds again(without coupon) still I have to pay for higher CPC ?

    I had my computer cleaned up, else I had screen shots to prove higher CPC.

    @ Aniket , I guess ya, since you used it in the same account. However I am not sure. You open a new account, doesn't matter

    I don't know how you arrived as such information but I have used 50+ facebook ads accounts and with coupons, my cpc is always decreased. From around 2$ per click to 10 cents per click and every time.

    With a 250$ coupon, my cpc had hit 0.05 with US demegraphics and it was laser targeted and I had banked hard while it lasted.

    Hope this helps.

      Hey,
      Just wondering what's the trick to manage 50+ fb ads accounts with coupons? Won't FB ban you on that? And how did u get every single account verified? VCC? Or?

      Cheers

    On the other hand though, coupons can basically be like free money so if you can profit from it, then do it.
