Ready to create a budget for your campaigns? In this step-by-step guide, we'll walk you through the process of creating a budget in Fluency.

Note: The term "budget" is used in different ways. In this specific context, we're referring to an account budget. An account budget represents a specific amount of money allotted on a monthly basis for an account. You can have more than one budget per account.


How to create a budget

  1. Go to Manage in the top menu.

  2. Click on an account from the list.

  3. Select the Budget tab.

  4. Click the + icon on the right.

  5. Select a budget type:

    • Shared: A budget shared among multiple campaigns.

    • Single: A budget applied to only one campaign.

  6. Choose the Advertising Channel for the budget.

  7. Fill in your preferences under Basic Settings:

    • Budget Name

    • Budget Type

      • Monthly: Run a recurring monthly budget at a set value. You can update the budget at any time throughout the month.

      • Flighted: The budget will have specific start and end dates. Note: If you are creating a budget for Meta (Facebook) campaigns, flighted budgets will be the same as Facebook's lifetime budgets.

    • Assign a Monthly budget amount. Note: Unused budget amounts will not roll over. Set a Temporary Budget Adjustment Amount under Pacing settings if you want to move any unused budget to the following month, if desired.

  8. Choose underspend mitigation settings.

  9. Select a pacing strategy and configure additional pacing preferences.

  10. Click Save and Exit.

What's next? Now that you've created a budget, you can assign a campaign to the budget.
