Is cloaking the only method for handling Facebook moderation?

Is cloaking the only method for handling Facebook moderation and affiliate links, or are there better alternatives or techniques that experienced marketers are using?

Would appreciate any real-world advice or recommendations.

No, cloaking has turned into a risky affair that destroys your account fast. Professional marketers use compliant presell bridge pages, warm aged domains, and white hat offers that pass Meta’s bots without any issusse.

Cloaking still works but its getting harder. 1+ years of cloaking for peptides. It's been a pain these last few weeks with the meta bans.

No, There is other option: If you have real license/certificate of your restricted niche, then you can apply, if approved you can run ads on that restricted niche.

Even then you can still have issues. I've spoken to LegitScript brands who had issues (bans, ad takedowns, etc.) running peptide ads on Meta.

Definitely not the only way, and honestly, cloaking is a fast track to a permanent "Circumventing Systems" ban nowadays. Meta's AI detection catches onto mismatched bot/user pathways incredibly fast.Most experienced marketers looking for longevity use clean, middle-funnel strategies instead:Bridge Pages (Pre-landers): Send traffic to a high-quality, educational landing page that warms up the audience first. Just make sure your footer has a standard Privacy Policy and an FTC affiliate disclosure.Lead-Gen Funnels: Direct traffic to a simple opt-in page for a free guide or checklist. Once they are on your email list, you can safely promote your affiliate links away from Meta’s ad bots.Advertorials / Blog Reviews: Drive users to a magazine-style review article or a "Top 3 Solutions for [Problem]" post. Meta loves high-quality content, so native-looking reviews breeze through moderation.Softer Copywriting: A lot of flags are triggered by hyped-up copy rather than the link. Dialing down aggressive claims and avoiding strict "before/after" framing solves a massive chunk of compliance issues.Cloaking still happens in black-hat spaces, but building a solid middle-funnel asset is the real way to stop constantly replacing burned ad accounts.

Change your creatives regularly. Cloaking is only one part of it.

You should have a clean, functional sales funnel before you cloak. Then you optimize, little by little, doing A/B testing all the way until you get it fine tuned.

As others said, cloaking is one component, though an important one
