Ad Compliance Checker scans your creative, copy, and landing pages for policy and regulatory risks common in Fashion & Apparel. Catch issues before ads go live, across paid social, search, and influencer campaigns.
Why it matters
Benefits
Pre-flight checks catch platform-sensitive issues like excessive skin exposure, prohibited targeting cues, or misleading “free” offers – so launch calendars for new arrivals and capsules stay on schedule.
Flags mismatches between ad copy and product pages – sale price, strike-through pricing, promo codes, exclusions, shipping thresholds, and final-sale language – reducing chargebacks, complaints, and policy violations.
Detects high-risk eco terms (e.g., “carbon neutral,” “100% sustainable,” “eco-friendly”) and prompts for substantiation language, certifications, and clear scope – critical for recycled fibers, organic cotton, and “vegan leather” claims.
Helps ensure creators include required #ad/#sponsored disclosures and avoids risky claims like “guaranteed slimming” or “medical-grade compression” – protecting both the brand and partners.
Use cases
Challenge
Your team launches “Up to 70% off – everything” but exclusions on the site apply, and the landing page shows different discount tiers by category. Ads get disapproved for misleading pricing or users complain about bait-and-switch.
Solution
Ad Compliance Checker verifies promo language against landing-page terms, flags “everything” and “sitewide” when exclusions exist, and recommends compliant alternatives like “Up to 70% off select styles – exclusions apply.”
Challenge
Creative includes claims like “plastic-free,” “planet positive,” and “zero impact” without clear definitions. Competitors and regulators increasingly challenge vague green claims.
Solution
Ad Compliance Checker highlights unverifiable or absolute sustainability claims, asks for supporting evidence (certifications, LCA scope, materials breakdown), and suggests precise wording like “Made with 60% recycled polyester – certified to [standard] where applicable.”
Challenge
Creators use language like “melts fat,” “fixes posture,” or show extreme before/after visuals. Platforms may restrict body-focused content and regulators may view it as health-related claims.
Solution
Ad Compliance Checker scans captions and overlays for prohibited health or body-shaming claims, recommends compliant performance framing (comfort, support, fit, mobility), and enforces disclosure requirements for paid partnerships.

FAQ
It checks common fashion risk areas – pricing and discount accuracy (strike-throughs, “up to” language, promo codes), required promo terms (exclusions, end dates, final sale), platform policy triggers (nudity, body focus, sensitive attributes), and claim substantiation for sustainability, materials, and performance (e.g., “waterproof,” “odor-resistant,” “UV protection”). It can also validate that ad copy aligns with the PDP and that disclosures are present for influencer content.
Yes. The checker can flag policy-sensitive elements that frequently impact Fashion & Apparel – overly sexualized imagery, implied personal attributes (“Are you insecure about your body?”), misleading “free shipping” claims, and restricted targeting language. It helps tailor compliant variants per platform so you do not rely on one-size-fits-all creative.
It identifies absolute or vague terms (e.g., “100% sustainable,” “eco,” “clean,” “ethical”) and prompts for specifics – what material, what percentage, what certification, what scope (product vs packaging vs operations), and any limitations. This reduces greenwashing risk and makes claims easier to defend in audits, partner reviews, and consumer challenges.
It is designed to speed it up. Instead of late-stage rejections and emergency rewrites, teams run quick checks during concepting and before trafficking. Many fashion teams use it as a gate in their approval process – ensuring designers, performance marketers, and legal reviewers align on compliant language before assets hit paid channels.
