It does not sync all my products from Shopify and the few that syncs are presenting with issues. I've manually fix the issues on each item, but still the items are not completely showing up.
Hi -- Thanks for your feedback. While I do see all your products coming across to Google, I'd still like to try and understand some of the issues you're seeing. Feel free to send us a message at https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app and we can try to help! Thanks for using the app and we hope to hear from you soon
Reply to Google feedback: Thank you for your reply Our issue is your tag team installed the Google tags on our website before the Google YouTube channel This makes our tags all mixed up The migration from ya to ga4 also made tracking confusing We asked for your support to help clear thing up via a short video call but got absolutely nowhere -------- We have been asking for Google ads support to help set up Google conversion tracking for Google ads for months... Despite multiple emails all we get is the same answer from India Google ads go to help centre to set it up yourself Even though they set up Google tag on our website before Now everything is all mixed up we cannot run any ads Google ads sales also rude on the phone
Hi there and thank you for leaving this review and feedback. We are sorry to hear that this has been a source of frustration for you. Conversion tracking should be automatically setup for you within your Google & YouTube Shopify Integration. That process is described here: https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/13494537?hl=en&ref_topic=14190979&sjid=15225058684796910413-NC We will be sure to share your feedback with the relevant teams. Thank you
Absolutely awful. The instructions are unreliable and WRONG. Does NOT automatically pick up the variant SKU, even though this content is correctly added in the native MPN field of Shopify *and* in the additional custom field that Google Merchant Center added for MPN. No customization rules beyond overly simple options for title and description. Totally useless if you actually want to sell products on Merchant Center. This is yet another garbage piece of software made by Google. Literally a waste of time.
Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave this feedback. You will want to add either the GTIN to the "barcode" field or utilize the "MPN" field if there is no GTIN. That should solve your problem. If you continue to have questions, please feel free to contact our support team at https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app
IT's now 2 Months that we've tried to use this Apps. Google Merchant still declined us with : "Account suspended due to policy violation: Misrepresentation" without helping us out to identify the problem. They send a Generic email very vague and useless to identify the issue. We were expecting a deep more and integrated solution. But sound it is not! Since the installation of this App, we've published on EBAY and AMAZON all our 600 products without any issues with another App!

Won't sync with Shopify at all. There's this transparent overly in shopify admin that prevents ticking boxes and interacting with this app. And now after reading other reviews I see that it may become even more of a nightmare if it ever does sync. After spending all night trying to get answers as to why I cant even get through the 'set up' phase of this app in shopify, and then reading about all the issues others are having, I cant trust it. With hundreds of products in my store, its too risky, especially when there is absolutely no customer support.

Ormai Google sta cadendo a pezzi. Il plugin viene aggiornato di rado, ho un problemi con le conversioni e l'assistenza non mi aiuta. Le ads su google/youtube sono sempre meno efficaci. L'unica cosa buona che avevate fatto, ovvero Google Optimizer l'avete chiusa. Un impero che si sta letteralmente sgretolando. Google pronta al fallimento

WORSE EXPERIENCE EVER!!!! I sell TEA, and my Title for one product, Viking Tea qty 11, is Disapproved for placement because they say the Title is Sexually Suggestive. How is, Viking Tea, qty 11 (or quanity of 22) Sexually Suggestive? They did this in all the categories they can fail me in. There is something very wrong with these people. They must be Fact Checkers in their other jobs.
Hello there and thank you for the feedback. We will be sure to share your experience with the relevant teams. Our policies are put in place to protect both merchants and consumers.

Read more how to do that here: https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/13585221 If you still need help resolving these issues, please contact us at: https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app
Our Shopify Google App's conversion tracking has been inactive for 4 days, disrupting our ad campaign assessments. The app is also conflicting with our manual tracking code, a common issue per customer reviews and community discussions. We've opened a case two days ago with no response. Urgently seeking resolution. Contact us ASAP.
Hello and thank you for your feedback! We were able to look up your case with support and see that they have responded and are working with you to troubleshoot. We hope we are able to get you a resolution shortly. We do apologize for any delays and will be sure to share this experience with the relevant teams.
Due to your product problem, the product ID in GA4 in our Google Analytics is displayed abnormally. Most of the product SKUs display the product digital code in the shopify backend. I hope you can fix this bug.
Hello and thanks for the feedback. We will be sure to pass this along to our product team as we are always looking for ways to improve.

The absolute worst experience with this app, it is incredibly frustrating. "Mismatched Currency In Shipping Information" has been plaguing us for 48 hours. All currency is USD, shipping currency is USD, I even shut off international markets and disabled geolocation to no avail. The worst part is, 900 products are approved, and a few hundred random ones are not, and the ones that aren't keep changing (day by day, some errors will disappear, and new ones will pop up). Contacted Google support about the issue and how to fix and their response was literally "You need to fix this or we will disable your account on December 7th". Truly insane, especially with the amount we spend on Google Ads every month.
Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave the detailed feedback. First, I am sorry your support experience didn't meet your expectations. I have also noted your feedback around confusion in setting up shipping settings. I will pass both pieces of feedback to our support and product teams as we are constantly looking to improve in these areas. We did just add two new shipping articles to our help center which may be of help to you and others: https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/14233096 https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/14238360 Thank you again for the thoughtful feedback and rest assured we will pass it along to the team.
This is the worst experience I've ever had with this app, and caused my account to be suspended integrating shopify's products. I've spent hours trying to fix issues. I can't get any live help. At least on the merchant account, it could update progress, but it doesn't, just take you around in circles. Even when adding sku's on manage my account it still says incorrect value. Horrible situation.

Why do big and smart companies like Google end up making their products useless? They have best of the minds with them to make apps that function well with their products. And they can't even do that well. What a shame! This app is supposed to record analytics well. Can't even do that properly.

Dificuldade de Configuração
Hello and thank you for leaving a review. I am sorry that you found the configuration to be difficult. We do have a support team available to help in these cases, you can reach out to them here: https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app They should be able to help you get started. Thank you again for your feedback.
Avoid it if you can, or at least make it your last priority. I wish I tried to manually set myself up on google rather than use this tool. Is currently the slowest 3rd party app on my site, will not work out of the box (and may do 'weird' things like add multiple pixels and then connect to the wrong one), and there is 0 support (no contact for months, once I had an employee invite me to a meeting and then not show up) for when your account inevitably gets flagged by some faulty automation.
Hello there and thank you for the review. We are sorry to hear your experience has been less than stellar. We do have a dedicated Shopify support team on standby and they can be contact here: https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app They will be able to resolve open questions you may have or in the case that you do find a bug, they have the resources to escalate internally. Thank you again for the feedback - we will pass it along to the relevant teams.
Below review submitted one year ago and the issue is still not fixed. As far as syncing products the app works great. Issues arise when you have a large number of products - thousands to be exact. We are currently at 6101 SKUS and when attempting to bulk edit in the app it freezes once we reach product 1100 and provides a "Page Unresponsive" error from Shopify. Google Tech Support has verified all is fine on their end so this issue is definitely on Shopify's end and seems to only appear when you have more than 1000 products. Others that have left reviews seem to have run into the same issue with this app. They told me this would be fixed by this morning and it is not. With other reviews encountering the same issues in the past months, it is evident Shopify is unwilling or unable to correct the issue. I would look elsewhere. Wish Shopify would take care of issues with their platform as opposed to aesthetics. Shopify platform and support have deteriorated a great deal over the past 3-4 years.
Updated Response 1 year later: Hi again! Unfortunately this is a Shopify bug, not a bug on our app. I know you still are having this issue, but we only own the app, not the bulk editor page you are using, so rating our app as 1 star won't help to fix their tool any faster. Thank you for the review. We have noted your feedback around the bulk editor. As you pointed out, that portion is actually owned by Shopify but we will be sure to pass on the feedback to their relevant product teams. One workaround you may find useful in the meantime is using the import/export feature available on the Shopify Product page. More details can be found here: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/products/import-export If there is anything else we can do to help you, don't hesitate to contact us! https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app
Unable to create multiple feeds, unable to sync products to multiple countries.
Absoute nightmare! Neither google or shopify are able to help with this 3rd party app. The feeds don't function properly and nobody knows how to diagnise the issues
Hello and thank you for taking the time to leave the review and feedback. I did check in on your account and support cases and it looks like as of today the majority of your items are now showing across all destinations. I have noted your feedback on your support experience and will be sure to share it with the relevant teams. Thank you, Google Support
This app doesn't allow me to complete the set up integration with google and YouTube. There is no easy way to contact google about this issue. If I cannot finish the setup or contact google for help, what is the point in having this app as an option to add to my site on Shopify?

Does not locate correct Merchant Center account
Hi there and thanks for leaving the review. There are a few reasons this may happen with the most common one being that the admin user in your Merchant Center account does not match the email from your Shopify account. You can read about how to edit user access settings in Merchant Center here: https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/1637190?hl=en You're also welcome to reach out to our support team who can walk you through the linking process: https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app I hope this helps!
Der Google Merchant Center Support ist das schlechteste, was ich je gesehen habe, ungeschulte Mitarbeiter, die immer wieder die gleichen Antworten schreiben. Es wurden mehrere Center gesperrt, keinerlei Hilfe von keiner der Mitarbeiter zu erwarten. Sie kommen ins Stottern, weil sie selber nicht mehr wissen, was sie sagen sollen, weil sie nur überfordert sind. Meine Existenz und meine Selbstständigkeit stehen auf dem Spiel, von monatlichen 60.000€ bis 70.000€ Umsatz auf 0€ zufallen und keine Reaktionen von Google und dem Merchant Center Support, selbst wenn der Anwalt schreibt, keine Reaktionen. Da gibt man monatlich fast 10.000€ bei Google ads aus und bekommt als Antwort warum oder wegen was die Center gesperrt sind, immer das gleiche, Sie können mir nicht helfen, sie hätten selber keine Möglichkeiten. Selbst in der Google Merchant Community List man nur von gesperrten Centern und das keiner eine Hilfe bekommt und keinerlei Optionen auf eine gute Zusammenarbeit. Ich hoffe, Shopify versucht mal bei Google Druck zu machen, dass es so nicht weiter geht!
