How to sell on Google?

Body

Google

To sell your products on Google Shopping feeds, whether via Free Listing on Google Search or on the Shopping Tab, you will need to add a valid product identifier, i.e., a Global Trade Item Number (GTIN).  This ensures the right product gets into the hands of the consumer as well as improving your conversion rates.  Another important reason is that any files of data submitted to Google Shopping that contain invalid product identifiers will not be processed.

GS1 Hong Kong is the only officially licensed organisation with the authority to issue barcodes (GTINs) locally with “489” prefix.

For Brands & Manufacturers   For Retailers & 3rd Party Sellers

Ensure that Google understands the data you are providing:

•    Ensure your products have GTINs

•    Don't reuse product identifiers (GTINs)

•    Use valid and unique GTINs, never invent or “borrow” from other products

 

Ensure accurate product identification on your websites:

•    Submit high quality product data

•    Provide a GTIN, when GTINs exist

•    Use valid and unique GTINs
