Integration Logic

  • Brevo Audience Sync

    This is a one-way data sync from Brevo to Meta Ads Manager. The integration pushes selected contact lists from your Brevo account to your Meta Ad Account. Within Meta, this data is used to create a new Custom Audience or update an existing one. The sync runs automatically on a daily basis to ensure the Meta Custom Audience reflects the latest changes in your Brevo list (new additions or removals). This keeps your ad targeting fresh and accurate without manual list uploads.
