This is an accepted solution.
First you need to setup an advanced account for Google merchant center: https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/188487?hl=en
Then use the data feed app: https://apps.shopify.com/multiple-google-shopping-feeds
Yes you can use the same google ads account.

Super, thank you for sending those through. I've requested MC for an advanced account, hopefully that comes through.
How long did it take you to get an advanced account?
3 to 5 business days. Sometimes the next day, it depends on how busy Google is.
Thanks
Hi @Vaun
I assume you are using Shopify markets to create the .com domain for US. You cannot use the same Google merchant center account for .com and .com.au websites. Google merchant center only allows a single domain. My suggestion is as follows
1. Create another merchant center
2. Use an app like our Nabu for Google Shopping Feed. We support multiple merchant centers for a single store
3. Use the new merchant center for US products and the original merchant center for AU products.
4. Since there is no restriction on the number of merchant center accounts you can connect with a single Google Ads account, You can use your existing Google Ads account to run ads.
Please reach out to our support team if you have any questions.
Thank you for explaining that Salil. But I don't believe we can have the same product in 2 feeds, keeping in mind it would carry the same item id. What do you think?
Hi @Vaun
You will not have the same ID for two feeds as the default Id for the US feed would be Shopify_US_<product ID>_<variant ID>, and for Australia, the feed would be Shopify_AU_<product ID>_<variant ID>, hence there would be no duplication.

- Try our Nabu for Google Shopping Feed from Shopify App Store.
That is not a recommended setup.
Simply use the same ID for all countries, each feed for each target country is considered seperate, even if you change the language.
The reason it is best to use 1 and the same ID, is so that your remarketing code works for all feeds. otherwise you need 1 unique tag for each product id, which will cause bloated coding.
Are you sure having multiple merchant centre accounts, not subaccounts, under the advanced account is not a policy violation?
Long time ago Google Merchant Center Advanced accounts did not exist. So if a business targeted multiple countries with different domains, then you must create a new account.
This is all with Google's policies. Even now, it is still ok, but you will get approved much easier if you setup an advanced account in this case.
Ok, thanks for the explanation. I am waiting for an Advanced Account approval.
For now, this is what I have done.
I manually created a GMC account for the first target country. I have lodged an Advanced Account request for this GMC account.
I created a second GMC account using the Google & YouTube app for the second target country. I used the same email address I used to create the first GMC account manually for the first target country.
I am sending the feed to the first GMC account via the app you suggested in your other posts, and it is working ok. The feed to the second GMC account is sent via the Google & Youtube app.
Both of these GMC accounts are shown under the same email address.
Have I done it correctly so far? After my Advanced Account request is approved, I will get a new GMC account ID, and my first GMC account will become a subaccount, but I don't know what will happen to the second GMC account created by the Google & YouTube app. Will it also become a subaccount?
Your feedback will be much appreciated.
Thanks
It will most likely not work.
What you need to do is for the second sub account, add a different email address.
Then link your second website that has a different TLD using the alternate email address.
Alternatively a better solution is to use: https://apps.shopify.com/multiple-google-shopping-feeds
Yes, that's the multi-feed app I use for the second TLD. I intend to use it for a third target country, TLD once the Advance setup is approved.
Should I use this app for all GMC accounts and uninstall the Google & YouTube app?
If you are using multifeeds then I would disconnect GMC in Google and youtube, and just use this app for the conversion tracking, remarketing and google analytics 4.
Ok, I'll look into that. Thanks
I tried this setup. However, I could not configure Google Analytics and conversions for non-primary target markets' TLDs (one ****. com and other ****.nz and my primary market is ****.com.au
I intend to run Google Ads PMax campaigns for each target market and I think reporting conversions from every TLD will be important for PMax campaign optimisation.
Thanks
Consider setting up conversion tracking manually.

Thanks for that. I want to get things done without touching the code. Maybe Google & YouTuber App will get some updates in this regard.
And also please tell me where I do copy this code if I have to go in this direction?
Thanks
Instructions are included in the code, please check the link tutorial provided.
Thanks for that.
For now, I'll not go into modifying the code.
I think I can get the conversions recorded in Google Ads on primary and other target country TLDs if I use Google & YouTube App for the primary domain and Multifeed app for the others.
