Integration overview

  • Eligible merchants need a physical location and must provide action links that lead to merchant-specific action pages.

  • Google reserves the right to include or exclude merchants based on their review.

  • The onboarding and launch process involves several steps from setup and sandbox implementation to production implementation and final launch.

  • Specific steps in the process include implementing feeds, optional addons like conversion tracking and menu feeds, and undergoing both sandbox and production reviews.

Criteria

For a merchant to be eligible for this integration, they need to meet the following criteria:

  • The business must have a physical location with an address that Google can match to our Maps database.
  • Any 'action_link' that you provide must point to merchant-specific pages where the user performs an action based on your integration type, such as ordering food or booking an appointment.

As Google reviews new merchant verticals, Google reserve the right to include or exclude merchants as we see appropriate.
