Top Notch Gift Shop review for Google & YouTube

March 21, 2018

if I could give this new Google Shopping Channel no stars in a rating I would. Do NOT...I repeat...DO NOT use the Google Shopping Channel. The feed is a huge problem. Does not sync well with Google. Does not have the ability to send over both the MPN and GTIN numbers. Multiple problems with data matching between Google and Shopify leading to almost our entire store (8000+) products being disapproved. It took 2 weeks for Google to recrawl the products after we spent hours "fixing" our products. We still have not regained our positions in Google Shopping. You do not have an option to set up your shipping in Google. The feed pushes over the shipping tables created in Shopify. If you have multiple zones or tables set up in Shopify, the feed sends over all of the tables and Google gets confused. It then selects the highest possible shipping rate for your product to display in your shopping product display. I spent hours setting up zones and rates in Google, removing the API shipping feed only to have all of my work erased and replaced with the information from the feed that next time it generated. This is a prime case of a company pushing out a new "solution" before testing it properly. They are now unable to make the fixes to make it work. You have been warned....proceed at the risk of your sanity
