I completed 90% of the form to be then told it is not supported for my country Trinidad and Tobago. It’s google, why aren’t you compatible with all countries and currencies??

First off, look at all the 1-star reviews! I"ve had so many issues getting this set up both with Shopify and with Google technical support. Setup was complicated and support on both sides was slow to respond (1+ days for a simple question). There is no phone number to call to talk to anyone. Every time I updated settings as recommended by both Shopify and Google support, something else would break. Error messages and support pages are hard to understand. I highly DO NOT RECOMMEND setting this up - it was a complete waste of time as I've poured about 4 weeks worth of time trying to get this to work.

I make wire wrapped jewelry and i also sell crystals at Leetwraps. Google keeps saying i need GTIN or MPN and i keep hitting custom. it seems ok at first but then a day or two goes back to not being able to publish on google. So sick of this. Facebook and IG reach are so low anymore. I should have just stayed on Etsy.

Hi there, Cathal here from Shopify. Selecting your product as custom should allow you to send your products to Google without a GTIN so I will take a look into this for you to see what is happening and will be reaching out to you by email soon. Thank you Cathal | Shopify

For some reason now, all my products are said to be "no longer published to Google." I did not have a problem before. All my products are manufactured and have all the proper fields filled out. There's definitely something wrong here. Hopefully Shopify can contact Google to let them know. I've tried redoing the products again and filling all the fields Google says is missing, but to no avail.

Not Reliable at all. It is a complete toss up as to weather your products will continue to populate or not. There is ZERO support.. read full review for more details. This app worked ok until it did not. Now 1000+ products no longer valid. After checking the values for several products there is no reason why they should have an error. Many ads no longer shown in google even though the fields are correct. Other ads are simply flagged with no reason why they "violate policy". Contacting google support is completly useless!!!! Ive gone back and forth for (3) months on a separate issue with google with ZERO support. This included contacting multiple departments, emailing and explaining multiple times to three different "NON" support reps, and CALLING their office in CA. I was on hold for almost 2 hours before finally giving up. There is no support for this channel.

The connection between the google channel and YouTube shopping is not working, and neither Shopify Support or Youtube Partner Support know a solution. I think this is a buggy Software tbh.

Keep getting google merchant account suspended due to no products on the website, no instruction on how to solve it, and asking google support also doesn't work. It works well before the performance max upgrade. So confusing and wasting time.

Does much more harm than good. Doesn't work at all and results in your Google account getting suspended due to data quality issues, even though all of the correct data exists within your product details on Shopify.

After about a week of trying I couldn’t get variants to display in google shopping, even after reading and watching videos about that feature and being on the phone with googles support.

Hi there! Mario here with Shopify! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the Google Channel App and troubleshooting steps. I completely understand where you are coming from, products with variants would need to fulfil specific requirements, and those details aren't easy to spot. I'm happy to share some bite sized steps to follow and check several fields based on our team¡s experience. I will be reaching out to you through email shortly. Looking forward to chatting with you!

Impossible to get Shopify linked to YouTube. keep getting automated emails saying misrepresentation or policy violations. Nobody at GMC or YT team can provide a solution. Gave up in the end. Fail. Been a month now and support still can't figure it out!

Changes in the feed aren't synchronised, missing fields still show up. With this lack of functionality the app is not useful.

I am experiencing some of the same issues that other people/companies are having. I keep getting GTN error on a lot of products. I also am experiencing missing inventory data issues. I don not know what that means or how to fix it. I am thinking about removing this app. My sales have dropped since this past May.

It doesn't pickup product variations and discounts. It randomly rejects my products saying the price doesn't match the landing page price when there is discount or variations

Integration does not work. I've had a Google Ads account for years now that's connected to our Google Merchant Center (also connection issues with this), but it doesn't seem to want to pull that information into Shopify. The only option I have is to create a new Google Ads account... why? I go into Google Account and everything on my end is linked, verified, and claimed. What is this app even for? Nothing works.

Hi there, Charlotte here from Shopify support, thank you for taking the time to install and use Google channel on your store and leave a review. At the moment, the Google channel can be used to run Google ads, from directly within your Shopify admin. Any ads launched and ran from within your Google Ads account, will not sync to the Shopify admin. In this case, I'm going to follow up with you over email to open up the lines of communication and see how we can provide more support for you on this. Charlotte | Shopify

Can't group products with different sizes into single listings. So it's useless really. Definitely dont need dozens of listings, 1 listing for each size!!!

After connecting my YouTube brand channel all products are imported to YouTube. But you are unable to connect to my main Google Ads account. You can only use your Google Ads account if you have a personal YouTube account. Almost no professional YouTuber uses a personal YouTube account. A YouTube brand account does not have its own email address and thats why you can not access to Google ads.

Made a campaign through this app and got a suspension from google for "circumventing systems". It is impossible for me to get through to google and ask them what is wrong. Shopify support does not want to help either, as they say google are to blame, eventhough the only thing I have done is to name the campaign and set a daily budget in the app. Something must be wrong with this APP. Please someone reach out if you know how to get this solved.
