What's going wrong
Merchants across several Shopify ad-management and tracking apps report that money keeps leaving their accounts after they uninstall or cancel. Some were charged for months, others were billed the month after a cancel attempt with no refund, and some found that the app still controlled their Meta, Google or Snapchat ad accounts with campaigns running. Reporters are mostly small and mid-size store owners using several paid tools, and they usually noticed only after the charges had posted. Support was often slow, refunds went unanswered, and cancel or unlink options were hard to find. The opportunity is a shared layer that tracks recurring app charges, verifies cancellations, revokes account access, pauses managed campaigns, and keeps dated proof for disputes.
