Guidelines

Follow these guidelines to make sure you submit high-quality data for your products.

Minimum requirements

These are the requirements you'll need to meet to show your product on Google. If you don't follow these requirements, we'll disapprove your product and let you know in the Diagnostics page of your Manufacturer Center account.

  • Don't include symbols to indicate a currency. Suggested retail price may only contain letters and numbers.
  • You must include a 3-letter currency code:
    • The currency code can be placed before or after the numerical value.
  • Don’t include tax or shipping cost in your price.
  • Submit a price that’s greater than "0".

Best practices

These best practices can help you go beyond the basic requirements to optimize your product data for performance.

  • Don't include any sale or promotional prices for items.
  • Submit a price that can be represented in your target country’s currency (according to ISO 4217). For example, instead of "1.0012 USD", submit "1.01 USD". If your price can’t be represented in your target country’s currency, then we’ll round it to a value that can.
