Merchants say this app is highly useful for launching and growing stores. It’s described as easy to install, with quick, reliable syncing to Google Merchant Center, Ads, Analytics, and YouTube—even for large catalogs. Many highlight time saved on feed management and ad setup, better visibility and organic traffic, and clearer performance tracking. Some report strong results when pairing it with Google AI and Shopify Sidekick.

Currently tagged as "Unsupported" by Shopify. When will Google & YouTube get this app updated to meet the new Shopify API? Many buttons on the app do not work. Needs to be simplified and have less buttons to subscribe to spam.
The app performed well during Q4, with solid sales driven by Google Ads. However, we’re now encountering issues where Google Ads prompts us to "Set up a Google tag," even though everything was previously configured correctly. Additionally, the app is now flagged as "unsupported by Shopify," which is impacting our business operations. Please address these issues promptly, as they are affecting performance.
Hi! "Unsupported by Shopify" is an old warning and has no impact on your shop. This banner was cleaned up before any impacts to any stores took place and will clear out shortly. There were some inherent changes to how conversions and tagging are accomplished across Shopify's websites, and the app has updated to meet those new restrictions, which is why you may see messaging to update your current tag methodology before it stops working.
I installed this in two stores. It was bad in one and terrible in the other. Only part of the data (events) they claim will go into Google Analytics actaully does. Support for it is non existent - you get bounced between different Goole support teams and no one knows who's supposed to help make this integration work.
It's ok, the application, although it consumes a lot of time. Because each product has to be configured again in metafields. It doesn't generate enough traffic to be worth the time invested. I prefer to redirect this attention to Facebook marketing, because that's where the money comes from, not from Google search
Hi, you don't actually have to set up every metafield again. If you have the data already present in your Shopify data, we use those data fields. The Google Metafields are there in case the field doesn't exist in Shopify (Like MPN) or if you need a Google-specific override.
Sorry if this wasn't clear and you were double-typing in all your data!
This app is garbage.
When setting up there is no option to add an existing Google Merchant account number, you can only create an entirely new google merchant account.
This leads to an endless loop of Google/Youtube saying my domain is owned by another merchant. And the Claim Ownership function doesn't work.
So it's imposisble to get my Shopify store ads under my Youtube channel.
Hi! Sorry you think that. If you're trying to link a Merchant Center account, that you are the admin of, but it's not showing up in the drop-down, you can send us a message and we can help link it pretty quickly! It's Get Support link in the app, or the URL below.

I thought that since Shopify was an integral part of Google, the integration would be quick and easy, on the contrary, terrible service, customer support and vague automated responses.
I managed to set up Google Merchant Center through this app, and my account was automatically suspended on the second day, due to "policy violations" with no clear explanations. Without direct communication, only by email it takes days for an automated response that is not understood.
The reasons given, such as "the website needs improvement" and "misrepresentation", are vague and, despite my attempts to resolve these issues, I have received little to no help from Google or the app's support team. It is frustrating and I still do not understand why my account remains suspended.
I have tried to fix this but the lack of clarity and support is disappointing. I was expecting a smoother experience from a platform integrated with Shopify, but instead, it has been a headache.
No conversions or events of any kind are sent to Google, and Shopify provides absolutely zero support. Google also provides zero support. Why even have this? Who is it for, people that don't need to track data?
Regarding Google Analytics: despite saying connected, no data reflected in google analytics.
Solution: manually install the tag for data to reflect on Google Analytics dashboard.
App was easy enough to set up - but once completed the 'customer events' app pixel still says 'disconnected' when every part of the app set up has been complete and they all say 'connected' because of this we went 12 hours with no data running from our store to Google ads/analytics etc.
No explanation or help on how to get the app pixel to 'connect'
I installed it, then it says my products contain sexual content. The product It was complaining about was a broom handle. Next it said another product contains alcohol that product is a potentiometer dial uses for electronic devices. Again, selling hotwheel toy cars flagged as contraband and marijuana. These 3 product are my main sellers and the descriptions, title and images do not contain anything related to what google thinks these products are. I did submit review, I guess its ran by AI that can't tell the difference.
Its a worthless plugin, don't waste your time. I can list my items on ebay (more expensive) and in turn ebay can push them into google searches without problems.
Hi there! I don't see any products with these policy issues on them currently. In fact, all of these issues were cleared up within the next hour of you submitting the initial product feed. Sometimes certain products do get flagged incorrectly either due to the image or product attributes, but will either clear up with a subsequent review (in your case, it was cleared up within the hour) or by clicking "I disagree with this decision" on the product to request a manual rereview.
If you still have these issues and are unsure why, you may get a quicker response by submitting a ticket via Get Support on the app, or visiting https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app. We have agents standing by to help with questions like this.
