A Location Fee Is Quietly Inflating Your Ad Costs
Since July 1, 2026, Meta has applied a location-based fee to image and video ads determined by where the ad is delivered, not where the advertiser is based.
That means a business running ads into certain markets pays that market's rate, even if the business itself is nowhere near there.
If a Q3 or Q4 budget was modeled on older media costs, it's likely already off, not because of a strategy mistake, but because the underlying cost structure shifted under the campaign.
This is easy to miss because it shows up as a billing line, not a campaign warning.
Worth a five-minute check on any account running ads into multiple regions.
