Google Shopping App - "Account suspended due to policy violation: Misrepresentation"

[Cazryn]

I applied to Google Merchant to advertise through Google Shopping, but I keep getting the following message in response: "Account suspended due to policy violation: Misrepresentation." I've checked and checked. I'm not violating any policies, and the shop policies are stated on the site clearly. My items are made and shipped through Printful. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong, so I can change it.

Printful is a POD business. Meaning Print on Demand. In other works the products is created once an order is placed.

This unfortunately is not allowed on Google Shopping, as all items must be stocked. Reference: https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/6150127#:~:text=Unavailable%20promotions

Google Merchant Center Changes:

• Create Sales tax, if applicable
• Verify your business information and phone number

Other Possible Reasons:

Basically, anything that looks shady
So, it means messy general store with a broken theme and blank images, unrealistic claims, etc

Bad and sketchy name or logo:

You should make it simple and clean, and definitely, try using a nice name for the store and domain

Pricing and fake promotions:

Do not use any compared prices if they are not real, especially for every single product
also if you are promoting a deal or a coupon code make sure it’s working properly
and you definitely don’t want to run ads for out of stock items

Low-quality images:

Try not to copy the exact images from any website.

Fake reviews :

It is better to not import reviews that looks spammy or not real

Trust badges:

Try not to overuse them and don’t even use them if they are not true

The same thing goes for the fake countdowns
you don't use them as well, if they are not real

Finally, Spelling or grammatical errors in your whole website
