CLIENT BUDGET MANAGEMENT

Ott gives every brand a prepaid ledger, updated in real time.

Four cards. One glance. Know exactly how much was funded, how much Meta spent, what's left in the balance, and how long it'll last — all pulled from Meta, updated in real time.

The money strip shows four cards: Funded — the prepaid ledger balance your client topped up. Ad spend — what Meta has actually charged against the account. Balance left — the remaining budget, calculated live. Funds will last — a projection based on current burn rate. No manual entry. No spreadsheet formulas. Every number comes from Meta's API. When a client asks “how much is left?”, you're looking at the answer — not scrambling to update a spreadsheet.

THE MONEY STRIP

Four cards. One glance. Every number from Meta.

For an agency owner scanning 15 client brands before their morning coffee, four cards replace four mental math calculations. Every number comes directly from Meta's API — no manual entry, no stale spreadsheet figures.

🏦

Funded

The prepaid ledger balance your client topped up. This is the total the client wired — the starting line. Always current, always accurate.

💳

Ad Spend

What Meta has actually charged against the ad account. Pulled directly from the Meta Marketing API. Not an estimate. Not a spreadsheet entry. Canonical.

💰

Balance Left

Funded minus Ad Spend — calculated live. This is the number that replaces your Monday morning spreadsheet ritual. It updates itself as campaigns burn.

⏳

Funds Will Last

A projection based on current burn rate. “Balance hits zero in 14 days.” Not a static number — a velocity reading that updates as spend accelerates or decelerates.

💳

Funded vs. Spent — in one strip

See the ledger balance, Meta-reported spend, remaining budget, and burn-rate projection on four cards. No mental math.

🔗

Every number is Meta-reported

The money strip pulls directly from Meta’s API. No manual reconciliation. No “wait, what exchange rate did we use?”

⚡

Real-time balance, not last-Tuesday’s spreadsheet

Balances update as campaigns spend. Overdraft thresholds fire before the client notices.


THE PROBLEM

Your client budget tracking is accurate exactly once a week
— for the five minutes after you update it.

This isn't a ritual. It's a tax you pay for using tools that weren't built for how agencies actually manage money.

⏰

Staleness

Your spreadsheet is accurate the moment you hit save. That’s the last moment it’s accurate. Everything that happens after — a campaign scaling, a CPM spiking, a client wiring money — happens in the dark. By the time you open the sheet again, the number is wrong. Hundreds or thousands of dollars wrong.

⚠️

Overdrafts cause trust erosion

A client gives you $5,000. You spend $5,200. It’s not malicious — Meta doesn’t enforce client-side budgets. But the client doesn’t care. One overdraft is a conversation. Three overdrafts is a reputation. In regulated verticals, trust erosion is expensive.

💸

Hours of non-billable busywork

Every Monday you’re pulling Meta reports, matching them against bank statements, calculating what’s left, and sending updates. Hours. Every. Week. Multiply by the number of account managers. Multiply by 52 weeks. That’s real salary dollars burned on data entry.


BEFORE & AFTER

What changes when budgets track themselves instead of you tracking budgets.

Without Ott
✗
Balance tracking
Spreadsheet updated weekly. Stale within hours. Accurate exactly once — for the five minutes after you hit save.
✗
Overdraft detection
You are the alert. Find out when the client forwards you the Ads Manager screenshot with “is this supposed to be happening?”
✗
Multi-currency
Manual FX conversions every time you update the spreadsheet. Rounding errors compound. Exchange rate changes make your numbers wrong.
✗
Client visibility
“What’s my balance?” emails. Daily. Every client. Every one is a 5-minute interruption you can’t bill for.
✗
Reconciliation
Manual. Hours per week. End-of-month panic. Three spreadsheets open at once, hoping the numbers match.
✗
Margin visibility
Client sees line items. Awkward conversations about your management fees. “What’s this $1,500 charge for?”
With Ott
✓
Balance tracking
Real-time prepaid ledger per brand. Always accurate. Updates itself as campaigns spend. Zero manual entry.
✓
Overdraft detection
Configurable per-brand thresholds. Alerts go to you — not the client. Spending velocity projections tell you “balance hits zero in 4 days.”
✓
Multi-currency
EUR, GBP, USD, USDT — native per-brand currency. All in one dashboard. No manual conversions. No rounding errors.
✓
Client visibility
Brand Portal shows real-time post-fee balance. Zero “what’s my balance?” emails. Clients self-serve. You do your actual job.
✓
Reconciliation
Automated Meta API deduction. Meta-canonical spend data — no toggle needed. Per-ad-account breakdown shows spend per linked ad account with MTD, 30-day, and 90-day views. Zero manual spreadsheet reconciliation. Transaction history with receipts attached. Audit trail built in.
✓
Margin visibility
Private Mode hides your fees. Client sees clean post-fee balance. Same ledger, two views. You control per brand.

HOW IT WORKS

Six steps. Zero spreadsheets. One real-time ledger per brand.

Most analytics tools show you what was spent. Ott tracks what's LEFT — because it models agency budgets as prepaid accounts. Client deposits money → balance increases. Campaigns spend → balance decreases. All automatic. All in real time.

1

Client sends payment

Wire transfer. Bank deposit. Crypto. Doesn’t matter. Ott doesn’t process the payment — it tracks what happens after.

2

Agency adds funds to ledger

Manual entry (30 seconds). Amount, currency, optional receipt attachment for audit trail. Balance updates instantly.

3

Meta spend auto-deducts

Ott connects to the Meta Marketing API. As campaigns spend, Ott deducts from the brand balance in real time. Meta-native spend is the canonical source — no toggle needed. A per-ad-account breakdown shows spend per linked ad account with MTD, 30-day, and 90-day date presets. No daily imports.

4

Balance updates in real time

Dashboard shows current balance per brand, recent transaction history, and spending velocity. Client sees their balance in the Brand Portal.

5

Overdraft alerts fire

When a brand balance drops below its threshold, Ott alerts the agency. You handle it before the Thursday morning WhatsApp message.

6

Balance resets that keep the full picture

Sometimes a balance drifts — a bank transfer was logged late, a currency conversion had rounding, or a top-up was entered in the wrong amount. Ott's balance reset lets you pin the balance to the correct number without wiping out chart history. A reset checkpoint appears on the timeline as an amber marker. Everyone can see what happened. Nothing is hidden. The audit trail stays intact.

💡

Pro tip: Hide brands you don't need to see right now

Each brand row has an eye-icon toggle. Click it to visually hide a brand from the card — useful when you manage 10+ brands and only need to focus on active ones. Hidden brands collapse into a “N hidden brands — click to show” placeholder. The enable/disable switch (which controls budget tracking) is unaffected — this is purely a visual preference, per user, per session.

Three components. One view. Always current.

BALANCE EVOLUTION

Drag to measure. Release to know.

The Balance Evolution chart tracks every client's ad spend over time. Now, drag across any two dates on the chart and Ott totals the ad spend between them. Need to tell a client what they spent on ForexHub between March 1st and March 15th? Drag from March 1st to March 15th. The chart highlights the range and shows the total. No calculator. No export-to-CSV. No “let me get back to you on that.” This is how agency account managers answer client spend questions: a drag gesture, a number, and a confident reply.

👆

Drag across any date range

Click the start date, drag to the end date, release. The chart highlights the selection and totals the ad spend. Works on touch and mouse.

💨

Answer client questions instantly

“How much did we spend last week?” Drag. “What about the first two weeks of March?” Drag. No report generation, no calendar math.

💻

Range stays visible while you discuss

The highlighted range and total persist on screen. Share your screen during a client call and walk them through it in real time.


DATA INTEGRITY

When the data stops, Ott tells you.

An ad account that stopped syncing used to draw €0 — visually identical to “the client spent nothing.” PR #276 changed that. Now a stalled account shows “Spend data through 2026-07-20 · error” on the chart. You know exactly when the data stopped, which account it affects, and that it needs attention — instead of discovering missing data after you've already billed the client.

🚨

€0 ≠ no data

Before this change, a sync failure looked exactly like a zero-spend day. Now Ott shows the last successful sync date and flags the error. You catch it before the client's invoice goes out. For finance agencies where data integrity is the product, the difference between €0 and “we don't know” is the difference between a correct invoice and a dispute.

🛑

Sync error state

Chart showing “Spend data through 2026-07-20 · error” with the timeline visibly cut off after the last successful sync. No silent zeroes.

Screenshot placeholder — replace with actual UI

AD-ACCOUNT SPEND

See exactly which ad account is spending: MTD, 30-day, or 90-day view.

Agencies running multi-account brands need to know which ad accounts are driving spend — not just a single rollup number. Ott surfaces spend per individual ad account linked to a brand, using Meta's own canonical data. No toggle. No reconciliation. Just the numbers, broken down the way you actually need them. For account-level spend across all accounts — including the ones not assigned to any brand — use Ad Account Management.

One breakdown. Per ad account.

📊

Individual ad account rows

Each brand card has a lazy-loaded “Ad account spend” section below its ledger entries. Expand it to see every linked ad account — each with its own spend total, pulled directly from Meta's account-level reporting.

📅

Date presets: MTD, 30d, 90d

Switch between month-to-date, last 30 days, and last 90 days with one click. Date ranges use a safe sync window so today's spend is always included — no waiting for end-of-day rollups.

🏦

Meta-canonical spend data

Spend numbers come from Meta's meta_ad_account_spend_daily — the same source of truth as Ads Manager. No rollup aggregation. No transformed numbers. No discrepancies to reconcile.

🖼️

Per-ad-account spend breakdown

Expanded ad account spend section showing individual ad account rows with MTD / 30d / 90d spend columns. Date preset selector visible above the table.

Screenshot placeholder — replace with actual UI

No toggle. No reconciliation. Ott now uses Meta-canonical spend as the default data source — the same number you see in Ads Manager. The per-ad-account breakdown is lazy-loaded below each brand's ledger entries, so you expand it only when you need it. Every linked ad account gets its own row with MTD, last-30-day, and last-90-day totals. You finally know exactly which account is driving spend — without opening another tool.


FEATURE DETAILS

Budget management that works the way agencies actually work.

⚡

Overdraft Alerts

Configurable per brand. Set thresholds: “alert when Balance A drops below $500.” Spending velocity projections tell you “balance hits zero in 4 days.” Alerts go to you — email, in-app, wherever you want. Never to the client. Ott doesn’t auto-pause campaigns — that’s intentional. The decision stays with you. Ott just makes sure you have the information to make it.

🌍

Multi-Currency

EUR. GBP. USD. USDT. Whatever currency the client pays in, the brand’s balance tracks in that currency. No manual FX conversions. No rounding errors. Brand A: €4,200. Brand B: $3,800. Brand C: 2,500 USDT. All in the same dashboard. No “which sheet has the EUR brands?” moments.

🔒

Private Mode

Same ledger. Two views. Agency dashboard shows the full picture — what the client paid, what was spent on ads, what’s available post-fee. Brand Portal shows the client a clean number: their available ad budget after your fees. No line items. No breakdown. No awkwardness. Toggle per brand. White-label. Your agency fees are architecture — invisible, essential, and none of the client’s business.


FOR FINANCE AGENCIES

Budget tracking for regulated verticals isn't a feature checkbox. It's operational infrastructure.

Finance agencies face budget complexity that ecommerce agencies never touch. Multi-currency. Multi-client. Multi-geo. Per-brand prepaid ledgers prevent cross-contamination. Every dollar accounted for. Every balance isolated.

🏦

Forex brokerages

Ten introducing broker relationships. Each with a prepaid ad budget. Each in a different currency. One brand’s overage can’t be covered by another’s surplus — that’s the broker’s money. Per-brand ledgers prevent cross-contamination.

🪙

Crypto & prop firms

Volatile ad environments where budgets shift weekly. Campaign suddenly scales because the market moved. Client wants to double spend because a token is pumping. Real-time balance tracking means instant answers — no “let me check the spreadsheet.”

🎰

iGaming operators

Multi-geo, multi-currency, multi-brand. Budget per region, per brand, per currency — all in one dashboard. An operator running campaigns in UK (GBP), Germany (EUR), and Canada (CAD) across three brands doesn’t need three spreadsheets.

📡

Signals providers

High-volume, lower-budget accounts. Ten accounts at $1,000/month each. A $50 overage per account is $500 across the book — and $50 overages are exactly the kind of thing spreadsheets miss. Ott catches every one.

FAQ

Questions agencies ask about budget management.

How is this different from AgencyAnalytics’ spend dashboards?

AgencyAnalytics reports what Meta says you spent. Ott tracks what’s LEFT to spend — because it models each brand’s balance as a prepaid account with top-ups, deductions, and configurable overdraft thresholds. AA shows you the past. Ott shows you the present.

Does Ott automatically pause campaigns when the budget runs out?

No. That’s intentional. Auto-pausing campaigns is dangerous — it could kill a profitable campaign the client would have topped up for. Ott alerts you with enough lead time (spending velocity projections, threshold alerts) that you can make the decision yourself.

Can I set different overdraft thresholds per brand?

Yes. Every brand has its own configurable threshold. High-spend, high-trust client with a track record of timely top-ups? Set the threshold low. New client with uncertain payment timing? Set it higher. You control the risk tolerance per relationship.

How does Private Mode work with the Brand Portal?

The Brand Portal shows clients their available ad budget after your agency fees. If Private Mode is on for a brand, the client sees the post-fee balance — e.g., $8,500 available of a $10,000 top-up. The $1,500 management fee is invisible. Your agency dashboard shows the full numbers.

Can I attach receipts or invoices to top-ups?

Yes. Every manual top-up entry supports document attachments. Bank confirmation, wire receipt, invoice — attach it at entry time. It lives with the transaction in the ledger forever. Audit trail, compliance box checked, no searching through email for the receipt from three months ago.

Does this work with crypto payments?

Yes. You can track balances in USDT or any currency designation. Top-up entries are manual (you confirm the crypto address and amount). Spend tracking is automatic (Meta API integration doesn’t change). The ledger works the same way — the currency label is just different.

Is there a limit on how many brands I can track?

No. Ott’s flat pricing means you track as many brands as you have. $29/month on Starter, $199/month on Agency Pro. No per-brand fee. No per-client fee. Your margin doesn’t shrink as your client roster grows — which is the entire point of building an agency.

Can I hide brands I don’t actively manage from the budget cards?

Yes. Each brand row has an eye-icon toggle. Click it to visually hide a brand from the card — it’s still tracked, still enabled, just not cluttering your view. Hidden brands are grouped under a “N hidden brands — click to show” placeholder at the bottom of the card. A header badge shows the count. This preference is per-user and doesn’t affect budget tracking state.

How do I migrate from my spreadsheet?

Export your current balances as a CSV. Import into Ott per brand with the starting balance. From that point forward, Ott tracks everything automatically. The spreadsheet becomes an archive. You never open it again.

Can I see spend broken down by individual ad account?

Yes. Each brand card has a lazy-loaded "Ad account spend" section below its ledger entries. Expand it to see every linked ad account, each with its MTD, last-30-day, and last-90-day spend totals. The data comes directly from Meta’s own account-level reporting — no rollup aggregation, no discrepancy. Date presets use a safe sync window so today’s spend is always included.

What happens if a brand’s balance drifts — can I correct it without losing history?

Yes. Ott’s balance reset lets you pin the balance to the correct amount at a specific date. A reset checkpoint appears on the budget chart as an amber marker labeled "Reset: <amount>," so your team and client know exactly when and where the balance was corrected. Everything before the reset stays visible — chart history, spend records, audit trail — nothing is lost or hidden.

When I add a new Meta ad account, how far back does Ott sync historical spend?

Ott resolves each ad account’s backfill start date from the brand’s initial balance ledger entry — so sync starts from when the brand actually began spending, not an arbitrary cutoff. Where Meta’s 37-month insights limit applies, it caps the backfill at that boundary. This means new accounts get accurate historical data from their earliest meaningful point.

What happened to the rollup vs Meta spend comparison toggle?

Ott now uses Meta-canonical spend as the default data source — no toggle needed. The rollup comparison was a temporary feature during the migration from aggregated ad_metrics data to Meta’s own account-level spend. Now that Meta-native spend is the canonical source, the toggle has been removed. The per-ad-account breakdown gives you even more granular visibility.

Can I see how much a client spent over a specific date range?

Yes — drag across any two dates on the Balance Evolution chart and Ott totals the ad spend between them. Click the start date, drag to the end date, release. The chart highlights the range and shows the total. No exports, no reports, no calendar math. This works for any date range the chart covers — last week, last quarter, a specific campaign window.

What happens if an ad account stops syncing? Will the chart show zero?

No. A stalled ad account shows “Spend data through [last sync date] · error” on the chart instead of drawing €0. You know exactly when the sync stopped and that it needs attention — instead of discovering missing data after billing the client. Ott distinguishes between “zero spend” and “we don’t know” because, for finance agencies, the difference is an invoice dispute.

I have brands with 3-5 ad accounts. Can I see which account is spending what?

Yes. The brand card now shows a per-ad-account spend breakdown directly on the card. Each ad account under the brand reports its own spend. If spend is spiking on one account, you’ll see it immediately — no need to open each account in Meta Business Suite individually.

Can I see ad account spend for a custom date range, not just MTD or last 30 days?

Yes. Alongside drag-to-measure on the chart, the ad account spend breakdown has a Custom option next to the MTD, last 30 days, and last 90 days presets. Pick Custom, select a start and end date, and the breakdown shows spend for that window. Each brand card’s date range is independent.

My client runs ad accounts in USD, EUR, and CHF. How does the spend breakdown handle mixed currencies?

The breakdown shows two totals when currencies mix: the exact native-currency sum from Meta and a ≈ Total (EUR) row that converts all accounts to EUR using the day’s ECB rate. Both rows appear together. Missing FX rates are flagged instead of silently zeroed.
