Get Started with Click-to-Messenger Ads in MobileMonkey

Updated by Raquel Bartolome

Click-to-Messenger ads are a special ad type that allows advertisers to generate leads on their Messenger account. They are shown like other FB ads on a user's newsfeed, but once the user clicks on the ad, they get directed to Messenger instead of a website. Once on Messenger, the user will receive a message from the advertiser's page. If they respond to the message, they will become a subscriber of the page.

In this guide, we will walk you through the steps of setting up a Click-to-Messenger ad with MobileMonkey.
