Pre-pay: requires you to pay for your ads for the month ahead upfront

Post-pay: requires you to pay for your ads at the end of the month

6. Launch your campaign

To finish, just click on “Save” and your campaign will be launched. Don’t forget that you should monitor your campaign’s performance to find out which ads are preferred by your target audience. After realizing which are the ads with the best results, you should improve them and get better results.
