Please could someone help me understand why my products are illegal or invalid on the instagram and Facebook sales channel? (Screenshots Attached)
Topic summary
A Shopify merchant is encountering issues with products being flagged as “illegal or invalid” on Facebook and Instagram sales channels. The store sells women’s ebooks focused on self-improvement, seduction techniques, persuasion, and relationship advice.
Key Issue:
- Products are being rejected but the merchant is unsure why
- Initially blurred product details to protect their niche
Community Response:
- Another user identified potential violations of up to 3 Facebook prohibited product categories based on the described content
- Suggested reviewing Facebook’s Commerce Policies and prohibited product list
- The content may fall under restricted categories related to adult services, dating services, or similar prohibited business types
Status: The discussion remains open with the merchant seeking clarification on which specific policies their ebook products are violating. No resolution has been reached yet.
You would need to provide more details on the actual product in order for someone on the forums to provide feedback/troubleshooting.
You’ve blurred out the product title, and not given any information regarding what the product is, so it’s impossible to say what the issue may be.
The best I can do with the information you’ve provided thus far is link you to their prohibited product list: https://www.facebook.com/policies_center/commerce/
I blured it because I don’t want anybody to copy my niche.
Anyway my website sells ebooks for only women on helping them become the best version of themselves, The art of seduction and persuasionת Becoming a truely goddess in their life, How to influence their male partner to be a better man, How to find their inner power to make an effect in relationships.
Does any of this ilegal?
