How to create a Meta ad campaign manually from Amplune

Use Amplune's copied campaign setup to manually create a paused Traffic campaign in Meta Ads Manager, then review every setting before you start spending.

What Copy setup does

Copy setup places the campaign instructions on your clipboard. It does not create a campaign, Facebook Page or ad in Meta, and it cannot spend from your ad account.

The copied text is organised into Campaign, Ad Set and Ad sections so you can enter each value in the matching part of Meta Ads Manager.

Create the campaign in Meta Ads Manager

Open Meta Ads Manager, select the correct ad account and click Create. Choose Traffic as the objective, then select Manual traffic campaign instead of Recommended settings.

Work through the Campaign, Ad Set and Ad screens and enter the copied values. Use Website as the conversion location. Amplune shows the currency from your selected Meta ad account beside Daily budget, because Meta charges that account in its own currency.

Review before you publish

Confirm the Facebook Page and Instagram identity, destination URL, countries, age range, placements, creative and URL parameters. Meta may show extra account-specific or country-specific questions, so answer those directly in Ads Manager.

Check the final budget and schedule carefully. Keep the campaign paused until everything is correct, then publish or start it yourself when you are ready for Meta to spend from your ad account.

After starting, verify the campaign directly in Meta Ads Manager. Meta Ads Manager is the final source of truth for review, approval, delivery, running status, spend and billing. Amplune can prepare or send campaign settings, but it cannot guarantee that Meta has approved or is delivering the campaign.

The affordable, artist-first alternative

Amplune was started by independent artists who wanted solid release tools without paying for several disconnected platforms. You can start with a free artist workspace, then add campaign-ready SmartLink controls with Launch at €7.99 per month excluding VAT. Growth is €19.99 per month excluding VAT for the broader connected workflow.

Artist feedback goes directly into the product roadmap. The team reviews recurring needs, tests focused improvements and can ship useful changes quickly—while protecting reliability, privacy and artist control. The goal is not to charge more for complexity; it is to build the practical platform independent artists actually need.
