AI agent for paid media specialists
Ad Account Billing and Payment Health Agent
No campaign stops because of a billing or limit problem that could have been seen in advance.
What it does
A card expires or a spend limit is reached on a Friday night, and campaigns stop until Monday. This agent checks each ad account every day: the payment method and its expiry, the account balance, spend limits, billing thresholds and any alerts from the platform. It forecasts when each limit will be reached based on current spend and flags risks days ahead. When someone has fixed an issue, such as updating a card, it checks again to confirm the account shows as healthy. It cannot change money settings. The specialist approves any limit change and updates the payment method. Edge case: two campaigns scheduled to start together will exceed the daily limit, so the agent warns before the day begins.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
