An account spending limit is an overall limit on how much your ad account can spend across all the ad campaigns you're running. If you set an account spending limit, delivery of your ads will stop when that limit is reached to help ensure that you don't pay more for ads than you want to. This limit is optional, but it can help you control how much you're spending on Facebook ads.
Go to your Payment Settings.
In the Set Your Account Spending Limit section, click Change.
Enter the limit you'd like to use. You won't be able to set a limit less than 10% above what you've already spent. For example, if your current limit is $150 and you've spent $100, the minimum you can lower your limit to is $110.
Click Update Limit.
Edit your ad campaign in ToneDen.
Finally, select Update Campaign to relaunch your ad campaign to Facebook.
Note: If you get an error telling you that you've made too many changes to your account spending limit, wait an hour and try again. Currently, you can only change your account spending limit ten times an hour.
Your account spending limit will be updated in about 15 minutes.
