Question : Google Merchant Account

Hi

Just been checking out Google Merchant Center and one partricular article mentioned that to list and sell product through Google's merchant center...I need to use Google Checkout and pay Google?

I was always lead to believe that Google Base/Products were free to use, you just need to sort out a feed for your products and hopefully you would be listed?

Is this not the case anymore?

Answer : Google Merchant Account

If you don't show that you have Google Checkout offered, you will get a reminder email about that. Looks like this:

During our recent review, we were unable to locate Google Checkout buttons on your website before registration or sign-in pages. As a result, Google Checkout badges have not been activated on your account. You may continue to process transactions, however, as your merchant account is still active.

As outlined in our program policies at https://checkout.google.com/seller/policies.html you must ensure Google Checkout buttons are available on your website before registration or sign-in pages if your website sells any physical goods.

If you’d like to activate your Google Checkout badges, you may update your website in order to meet this requirement. After you update your site, please respond to this message so we can confirm the changes and activate your badges.
