Shopify + Google Ads + Google Merchant Center review

Previous: 1–28 January. Current: 29 January–25 February. Both periods contain 28 days. Monetary values use USD and all timestamps use UTC. Merchant Center counts are two dated snapshots, not period totals. Eligibility fell from 1,240 to 1,010 offers. Inspect disapproval reasons and affected products before deciding whether this explains the delivery change.

What Hendrik checks

  1. Read Shopify net orders and refunds

    Establish whether the commercial result deteriorated after refunds, without treating it as Google-attributed revenue.

  2. Inspect Google Ads delivery

    Check spend, clicks, conversion definition, and conversion value by campaign before changing bids or budgets.

  3. Inspect Merchant Center eligibility

    The third integration adds offer approval, disapproval reasons, price, availability, and feed freshness on its dated snapshot.

  4. Check promoted products

    Compare the affected Merchant diagnostics with the advertised product set only where the operator can verify the product IDs or listing scope.

Requirements and data limits

What you need

  • Use one explicit 28-day comparison window, time zone, market, and legal-entity scope before comparing values.
  • Connected Shopify order, refund, and inventory data for the same store and comparison window.
  • Connected Google Ads account with spend and conversion reporting for the stated window.
  • Connected Merchant Center account with offer diagnostics for the same market and product scope.
  • Keep provider-specific definitions visible and use an identity or product mapping only where it is established for this workspace.

Keep these differences in mind

  • Declared UTM text is not a verified ad-platform campaign identity; cost coverage and provenance control any margin claim.
  • Google-reported conversion value is platform attribution, not incremental revenue or a deduplicated business total.
  • Offer diagnostics do not prove a store-product or campaign relationship unless that mapping is established.
  • Merchant Center eligibility is a catalog diagnostic. It does not prove that a disapproved offer caused an order or conversion change.
