What's going wrong
Merchants across several ad platforms report that ads, merchant accounts, and business pages are paused, rejected, or suspended with vague, contradictory, or missing reasons. Long-running Shopify stores and sellers rejected right after connecting an app both describe the problem. Some lost business pages and years of customer data, and appeal routes often require a login that is itself blocked. Appeals return generic or looped replies, and no one with authority to override the decision is reachable. Sellers without an ad specialist cannot decode notices, so they lose spend and sales while guessing what to change. The opportunity is a tool that records each stated reason, checks listings against platform rules before submission, and tracks appeals until a human reviews them.
