How it sells itself

Guardified helps merchants stop sending paid traffic to products that are low in stock or sold out. Connect Meta Ads, TikTok Ads, and Google Ads, choose the campaigns, ad sets, ad groups, asset groups, or ads to protect, and create inventory-based guards for specific products, variants, and locations.

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.

Key points
  • Pause Meta, TikTok, and Google Ads automatically by inventory threshold
  • Protect campaigns, ad sets, ad groups, asset groups, and individual ads
  • Set guards by product, variant, and location with optional auto-resume
  • Track pause and resume actions with platform, webhook, and email logs
  • Auto pause, resume, or monitor selected ads based on product stock
  • Set low-stock and recovery thresholds with an “any/all products” option
  • Get email alerts and an activity log showing what changed and why
