Haven Lux review for Google & YouTube

1 / 5

Oct. 9, 2025

I already wrote a review here last May, and I'm writing again because once again Google suspended my GMC account without anyone understanding why. Worse still, Google isn't offering any assistance or support to help resolve the issue. It's a never-ending nightmare. Stay away! I do not recommend this app to anyone! Stay away or you will only get headaches, lost work hours, money and despair. I have an online store that sells home decor products, but Google says that I sell products with adult content. Incredible! It says I have policy issues and missing shipping information, but it's not specific or provides any further information, so it's impossible to fix without knowing what's wrong. I just see misrepresentation issue, but what is it misrepresentation for God's sake?! I actually have all the policies and information established and clear in the store. I have 61 products, which when divided into variants totals 450. But Google has 12.5k products loaded into my merchant account. How does he do it? I synced my Shopify store with my GMC account as recommended by GMC itself. He carries 450 products for each country, but why does he do that, honestly! Now I'm going to give up, but no one is going to give me back the hours and money I've already spent on this app, right?! What a nightmare!

Hi, sorry you've had some issues so far. Let me help with each issue one-by-one. You have 61 products in Shopify, but these are 61 different parent products. When you sync to Google, we need to submit a unique offer for each variant of each parent product, which increases the number from 61 to 450. Additionally, if you have different markets (countries and languages) you have configured, we will add the offer for each location, so you can properly reach all your Markets with sales. If we didn't do this you would only be selling to one country, not worldwide. This is actually a feature to ensure that your products can show to everyone to give you more sales. We just expanded your reach by about 27 additional countries by doing it this way, and you didn't have to do anything to achieve that. As for Shipping Missing, please ensure you have 1) Selected Automatically Sync Shipping in the app settings and 2) Have actual rates configured in your Shopify > Settings > Shipping and Delivery > General Shipping Profile. Having actual rates, or backup rates, configured here lets us sync those to Google for you. If you use an app plug-in to automatically calculate shipping rates at checkout, then there's no way Google can see those and show customers on your ad spots. You haven't set up shipping rates for 25 of your 27 countries, so only US and Portugal have shipping rates configured (the error messages say which countries are missing shipping rates in the text details). For the Adult Content applied to lamps, some of our automated checks can flag certain items incorrectly. You can simply click "I Disagree with this issue" and that triggers a re-review and clearing of these items Finally, I don't see any support tickets filed with us, which may have saved you a lot of time and effort on these. We have an entire team dedicated to support at the Contact Support link in the app, or here https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app This would have been a quicker resolution than waiting for us to reply to a 1 star review. They can also provide more personalized support responses in private than I can say in public here, in order to keep your business details somewhat private.
