You have reached the limit for the number of Businesses you can create at this time

When creating a new Facebook Business Manager account, I have received the following message: “You have reached the limit for the number of Businesses you can create at this time.” How can you fix this?

Well, first off make sure you really need a new business account. A lot of times, you can create a new FB page or a new ad account in your existing Facebook Business Manager account. You shouldn’t create more than two business accounts in most cases. Just because you have multiple Facebook pages it doesn’t mean you have to create different FB Business Manager accounts.

If you still think that you should be able to create new FB Business Manager accounts, you can contact Facebook support team, and hopefully, they will get back to you and you will be able to create more than 2.

The second option you have is to ask a friend of yours to create the Facebook Business Manager account then he or she will be able to add you as an Admin then you can remove him or her if it is necessary.

When do you have to create a new Business Manager account?

It is important to keep in mind that you don’t have to create separate Facebook Business Managers for separate Facebook Business pages.

You only have to create a new Business Manager, if you have a completely separate business, as it is also a separate legal entity but it is not necessary even in that case.

As you can control from your Business Manager who has access to which Facebook pages, Ad accounts, billing information, you can make sure that everyone is only able to see and access assets that she or he has to have access to.

How to edit the name of your Facebook Business Manager Account?

1. Go to the Business Manager where you want to change the name of the business
2. Go to Business settings by clicking on the Setting icon in the upper right corner or navigate to the Business Settings from the menu in the upper left corner

3. You can see a sidebar menu on the left, scroll down to Business info and click on it.

4. Here you can edit the information of your Business and the name of your Business account.
