See every featureAdStockGuard stops you from paying for ads that lead shoppers to sold-out products. It monitors your store's inventory and automatically pauses the matching ads on Meta, Google, TikTok, and Pinterest the moment a product hits zero or a safety buffer you set. When you restock, it reactivates those ads automatically, so customers can buy again.
Connect Google Ads or Meta Ads, choose the campaigns, ad groups, or ads you want to protect, and set low-stock and recovery rules. SpendGuard pauses the selected items when stock drops below your threshold and resumes them when inventory recovers. Includes email alerts and an activity log so you can see what changed and why.
- Automatically pause and resume Meta, Google, TikTok, and Pinterest ads.
