How to Integrate Automizely Reviews With Google Shopping?
Google is the first choice of masses when it comes to searching some authentic information, reading news, downloading images/videos, or needing shopping recommendations. You can leverage this search engine platform to increase the reach of your products.
You can integrate Automizely Reviews with Google Shopping effortlessly. Here’s what needs to be done:
Your store must have 50 reviews at least
Sync all your reviews with Google (including ones with low ratings)
The review content shouldn’t be offensive, spammy, etc.
You must collect and own the reviews you share with Google
To meet these requirements, Automizely Reviews syncs all published reviews with Google Shopping. We recommend publishing all reviews and replying to the negative ones for a better conversion rate.
⚠️ Google will check your reviews and may reject the integration at their sole discretion. Click here to check Google's Product Rating policies.
Log into your Google Merchant Center account. In case you don't have an account, create one here
Apply for the product ratings feed integration by filling the Google's Product Ratings Interest Form as shown below:
After receiving the form from your side, Google will inform you about your request via email. In case of an affirmative response, the "Product reviews" section in Google Merchant Center will be available for you to set up. The status will automatically change from inactive to live. It should be like this:
In the event of a negative/no response/unchanged status, you can either reapply the form or contact the Google support team to learn about the obstruction.
After being eligible for the product ratings program, upload your ratings feed to Google Merchant Center.
It’s important to ensure that Google matches the right reviews with the right products, therefore information for your products feed (Google channel or other third-party apps) and product ratings feed (Automizely Reviews) must be identical.
