Disable Facebook page monetization

Good evening,

I would like to inform you that this response was generated by an artificial intelligence via the site chatgpt.com.

What you are describing is quite common on Facebook/Meta, and stems from the fact that monetization is not controlled by a single switch. Even if “Show ads” is turned off, other options may continue to apply monetization automatically.

Here are the points to check one by one to completely disable monetization on your page ????

1. Disable all monetization tools

Go to Meta Business Suite → Monetization → Tools
Then ensure that everything is turned off, particularly:

• In-Stream Ads

• Ads on Reels

• Overlay/Image Ads

• Subscriptions

• Performance Bonuses (if activated)

???? It is not enough to disable a tool: each format has its own setting.

2. Check the settings by content type

Facebook may monetize differently:

• images

• videos

• Reels

• stories

In Monetization → Settings, look for a section like:

• Settings by content

• Automatically monetized formats

➡️ Disable anything mentioning automatic monetization or ads on eligible content.

3. Check the settings at the time of publication

When publishing an image:

• Click on Settings or Advanced options

• Ensure that there are no options related to ads or monetization enabled by default

⚠️ On some pages, Meta automatically re-enables monetization on new posts if a program is still active.

4. Exit monetization programs

In Monetization → Overview, check if your page is:

• Registered or Active in a program

If so:

• Click on the program

• Select Leave the program or Disable monetization

???? As long as the page is registered, Meta can continue to monetize even if ads are “turned off”.

5. Processing time

After making changes:

• The change may take 24 to 72 hours

• Old posts may remain monetized

• New posts are the true indicator

6. If the problem persists

In this case, it is often a Meta bug or a setting on the advertising account side.

➡️ Solution:

• Meta Business Suite → Help → Contact support

• State that you wish for a total and permanent deactivation of monetization

In summary

✔️ Disable all tools
✔️ Leave programs
✔️ Check content settings
✔️ Wait for the processing time
✔️ Contact support if necessary
