The short answer — and why it matters for your ad campaigns.
Cloaking is a technique in digital advertising where different content is shown to ad platform crawlers versus real human visitors. When a Facebook or TikTok bot reviews your ad, it sees a compliant, policy-friendly landing page. When a real user clicks through, they're redirected to the actual offer page.
Modern cloaking tools and cloaking software — also called a cloaker — do this by analyzing every incoming visitor in real-time: their IP address, ISP, user-agent, device fingerprint, and behavioral signals. If the visitor is identified as a bot or platform reviewer, they're served the safe page. Everyone else sees the real offer.
This technique is used across Facebook Ads cloaking, TikTok Ads cloaking, and Google Ads cloaking campaigns — primarily by affiliate marketers running offers in restricted verticals like nutraceuticals, finance, and gambling.
