Yes, you can use Osortoo without Facebook Business for most giveaways.
However, certain actions require a Facebook Page and the permissions that come with it.
When Facebook Business is not required
You can use Osortoo without a Facebook Business account if you are running:
- a Facebook giveaway from a public Page post
- an Instagram giveaway from an Instagram Professional account already linked to a Facebook Page
- a YouTube giveaway
In these cases, you only need to log in with your personal Facebook account that has access to the Page.
When Facebook Business may be required
Some setups require proper Page management permissions. For example:
- you manage multiple Facebook Pages
- you are part of an agency managing client Pages
- you need to update Page roles or permissions
- your Instagram account is not linked to a Page
Osortoo must connect to your Page through Facebook’s official permissions.
These permissions are granted through the Business Integrations section of your personal Facebook account or through Facebook Business settings if you work in an organization.
Instagram giveaways
An Instagram giveaway always requires:
- an Instagram Professional account (Business or Creator)
- a linked Facebook Page
You can manage this link without using Facebook Business Manager, as long as the Page connection is active.
Summary
You can use Osortoo without Facebook Business in most cases.
You only need proper Page access and a linked Instagram Professional account when running giveaways on Facebook or Instagram.
