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 ads for your product. If you don't follow these requirements, we'll disapprove your product and let you know in the Diagnostics page of your Merchant Center account. 

• Submit the number of manufacturer-defined, individual products that you’ve grouped together. For example, if you’ve grouped together 3 individual pens, then you would submit 3. If you’ve grouped together three 20-packs of pens, then you would also submit 3.
• Don’t submit multipack for a manufacturer-defined multipack. If you’re selling a single multipack that was packaged by the manufacturer, then don’t use the multipack attribute. To include the number of units, instead use the unit_pricing_measure attribute.
