The story

The pain

We're dropshippers who rely on Meta ads to drive sales, but our ad accounts keep getting blocked without warning, killing our revenue streams. When a profitable campaign is running well, a sudden account restriction or ban forces us to start over from scratch, losing weeks of momentum and thousands in potential sales. The platform's support is useless, leaving us with no way to recover our accounts or understand why they were blocked.

I have a dropshipping business going on everything was going so good while I was using PayPal, I started getting a lot of sales they blocked my account. I made another one they did the same thing. I’ve been trying to find other payment providers but they are all very difficult to use. I’m not sure what to do. I know the product im selling has a bunch of potential. But im not able to sell it because i dont have a payment provider/processor.

My Meta ad account was performing well and I had built my brand around it, but then it got restricted and eventually banned. Finding another account that could perform well wasn't easy and honestly, the setback was frustrating.

2 Months ago I started with a new store in the UK market. We decided to sell some Jewellery. The first month we didn't make much revenue and we almost decided to quit, since we just didn't see the potential in it anymore. Then finally after 1 month we started to make some serieus revenue. We already hit the 15K up to now. Our goal was 20k in revenue this month. Everything seemed to go perfect, but today our facebook ad account got blocked. This is a huge pain in the a$$, since we need to start all over again. We have looked on the internet for all solutions, but everything brings us to the support of facebook, which will obviously do nothing.
