Terrible. Old version worked fine, but I was forced to uninstall the old one to install the "new and improved" version. Now, it doesn't work at all and no way to revert back.

satı kanalına açamıyorum, sürekli hata veriyor, lütfen yardımcı olun, her şeyimi düzgün yaptığımı düşünüyorum ama yine aynı atayı veriyor, sayfadaki engelleyiciyi kapat diye bir ata mesajı veriyor ama hepsini kapatmışım

I've been sturggling for about a month with my merchant account being suspended for "misrepresentation". They claim that when you're account is suspended, you'll receive an email with more details about the issue and information about how to fix it. The warnings are broad and leave you having to guess exactly where the problem is. When I've called the help center for more information, they've told me directly that their system is automated and not even they can tell me why my account is suspended. There is no way of seeing where an issue is and no information is provided about how to fix it.

Products with variants being dissaproved constantly! Contacted both shopify and google, they just pass the blame to each other with no fix for the issue!

Not good for business!

Does not sync local products properly

Have been in contact with support for more than 2 months and still no solution was given to me

NHo help whatsoever. Instead, this App will cause your stores Merchant and Ads account to be suspended because it just throws any and all info for all your products (regardless whether the info is acceptable by Google's standards which are now recently crazy strict) So far my account has been suspended since October and not one person from Google or Shopify can tell me exactly why. I did manage to get a shortl list of 4 things to update or edit - 1 of which was to "remove my signup banner in my footer." I mean really??? A signup form is a vital part of ANY website! I removed it regardless in the hopes that I would see my account unsuspended but here we are and yes, you guessed it ... it's still suspended. Its ridiculous really! BAD APP!

I've had this up for over a month now and still 0 traffic from it with a good size daily budget not sure what the issue is but any help would be appreciated.

This is final rating: 1 star
My campaign is now paused. Will probably un-install after I finish this review. I am also probably too small for Google Shopping. App is a pain to set up and get running and way, too expensive for the very few sales it provided. Google also provides me no control over how my budget is spent; I tried to cut the budget into a sustainable amount by advertising only a few items which did not produce sales AND gave me another 30 day lag to re-acquire my products . I have been advertising on my Amazon Channel during the same period for comparison. In the past 30 days I sold 0 apron units on Shopify using Google Shopping; 7 apron units on Amazon advertising there. Google Shopping is not for me. Hope this saga helps you in some small way. Rest of review runs from start to the end except for this final review here at the top.

Installation in progress; 3 stars because I don't have an app opinion yet. There are some technical issues being sorted out by gurus and technical team. Support team is responsive, helpful and interested in finding solutions so they get 5 stars. Thanks to Jam, Paulo, Megan, Nicole for all your help. We will see what happens next.

Update: Today 7-20-19 I started Google Shopping on my Etsy shop and tonight my products are getting impressions. If Etsy can do it, so can you Shopify. What are they doing differently than you? I know you can figure it out!

7-22-19 Aoh'an from the technical group sent email today with instructions and a bit of code to add to my theme to fix the problem. The problem has been identified and a solution offered. Well done. Thank you, Aoh'an. I will check with Mile High to ask for help. Let's see what happens next.

7-22-19 pm Mile High is engaged and collecting information; re-check of products available for google shopping has changed from 'not-approved' to 'pending'

7-23-19 in my launch group for google some products now approved, some pending, none rejected. Now we're talkin'.

7-23-19 It is the considered opinion of the technical staff and theme developer that no intervention is required on my Showtime theme and that the warnings were of no consequence. The approved products are showing up now on google searches. So I am going to call it a day on installation.

Revue is now at 3 stars for the app; 5 stars for Shopify gurus and technical, Mile High theme developer. We will see how she runs. Thank you everyone, job well done.
7-25-19 All products in test group are now approved and show up on a targeted search; now we can evaluate the function of the app. Impressions are delivering based on the report. Thanks to all those who helped get this thing going. Let's see what happens.
7-26-19 App seems to be running. 625 Impressions, 1 site visit, $1.54 in charges. A click seems to take the customer to a staging area where a second click is required to take them to the product web page. My understanding was that a paid-for click took a customer to my product web page. Inquiry sent to the gurus for clarification.
7-30-2019 Gurus have confirmed that indeed, Google Shopping has me paying for clicks that go nowhere. This information was not in the app information so my expectations were in no way managed on this. It is too soon to say if the now very expensive cost of a click is worth it. Update: Ira sent new docs that show the information on charges-new for clicks-that-go-nowhere to be on the google shopping copy. I recommend that Shopify clarify this in their app copy as well. I have been assured that there is no additional charge for the click that actually DOES go to the website product page. I am surprised that all the bad reviews I read here did not mention all of this. I plan to let this run until the end of August to see if the expense is worth it. Right now I am being charged $2.36/website visit, have had 2695 impressions, 12 visits and 1 sale. Analytics do NOT report the number of clicks for which I am paying, only visits. Start was 7-13-19, 17 days, but the app was not running until around 7-23-19 so really more like 7 days. See you on the flip side.

9-4-19 We are currently at 4 stars for the app and product. We are getting traffic and sales, but it is a very expensive product for us smalls. Getting it up and running was not very funny, so be ready for a process. We are keeping it going, but reducing to just advertising our best seller for the next phase of testing. Support still stands at 5 stars.

9-19-2019 Down graded to 3 stars on the app. During testing phase, still ongoing, I learned that once Google has acquired products and gone through a 30-day optimization process....leave the products acquired unless you want to do it all again. Removing products, to promote fewer products with a smaller budget, means the acquiring process and optimization process starts over when you put the products back into the system. And Google does spend all the budget you give them.
There is very little control for vendors in Google Shopping. Amazon Sponsored Products is easier and more flexible. Testing still ongoing to see if a cost effective budget can be accomplished. Sigh.

Ich bin nicht nur vom Google Kanal, sondern auch vor allem vom Merchant Center mehr als enttäuscht. Sie legen einem Steine in den Weg, wo es nur geht. Ich empfinde dieses "Misrepresenting" und "entspricht nicht den Richtlinien" inzwischen als reine Schikane. Ich habe den Support des Merchant Centers bereits mehr als einmal angeschrieben und darum gebeten, dass mir konkret mitgeteilt wird, wo die "Fehler" sein sollen. Habe darauf hingewiesen, dass ich natürlich daran interessiert bin, eventuelle "Fehler" zu korrigieren...habe dies auch auf Verdacht gemacht, da als Reaktion auf meine E-Mails immer nur eine Standard-Nachricht kam, sodass man merkte, dass garnicht auf meinen Inhalt eingegangen wurde.
Wie kann man Fehler korrigieren, wenn man nicht weiß, was angeblich falsch sein soll. Für mich sieht das eher aus, als ob das an den Haaren herbeigezogen wurde. Alle angeblichen "Produktfehler"von Google, die ich auf Gutdünken korrigiert habe (und per Screenshot festgehalten habe) und kurze Zeit verschwunden waren, sind inzwischen wieder und wieder aufgetaucht.....es werden fehlende Barcodes bemängelt, die alle vorhanden sind ...bei Tierfutter werden Altersgruppe, Gender etc. verlangt - was soll das?.
Das Merchant Center scheint sich nicht bewußt zu sein, dass es damit Existenzen ausbremst. Es ist enttäuschend, dass kleinere Unternehmen, die mit einem Online Shop durchstarten wollen, somit erst garkeine Chance haben, ihre Produkte auf den Markt zu bringen. Für mich ist das reine Willkür

My products can not be synced to Google Merchant Center since one week ago. No one can help me to solve the issue. Very disappointed.
