Google Merchant and Shopify Image URL's

Hi guys,

Just trying to get my head around google merchant requirements and shopify image URL’s.

I know all shopify images are stored under the domain…

https://cdn.shopify.com/ and you would need to use cdn.shopify.com URL’s in the google merchant data feed (data source) as your image links and additional image links.

Does Google merchant allow this… Don’t they require both your image URL’s and product landing page URL’s to be from the same domain?

Thanks in advance.

No, images, do not require to be hosted on the same domain name. Images can be hosted anywhere, as long as it is publicly available.

Hi @VD10

Yes, Google Merchant Center allows Shopify’s CDN URLs (https://cdn.shopify.com/) for image links, even if they are technically hosted on a different domain from your store’s primary domain (e.g., yourstore.com). Shopify’s CDN is widely recognized and accepted by Google Merchant Center.
