Meta ads for life insurance agents, rebuilt for the financial special ad category.
Life insurance and final expense advertising changed in 2025, when Meta moved insurance into its financial special ad category and removed age targeting. We build campaigns that reach the right buyers anyway, with creative and screening that do the targeting.

What makes life insurance and final expense agents different on Meta
Age targeting is gone
Final expense campaigns can no longer target by age, so creative has to attract the right buyers on its own.
Implied age and government imagery
Copy that implies the viewer's age or looks like a government program gets rejected fast.
Lead form restrictions
Lead forms can't ask for health or financial details without Meta's permission.

Can final expense ads still work without age targeting?
Yes, but they need different creative. The ad itself has to attract the right audience, and screening and feedback loops do the rest.
Is there a minimum?
We work with life insurance and final expense agents doing $25,000+ a month in revenue and ready to invest in paid acquisition. If you are earlier than that, a Meta ads audit is the better first step.

The first 30 days focus on tracking, offers, and creative testing. Most accounts show clear direction by day 60 to 90, once Meta has enough issued policy data to optimize against.
