Is your store one listing away from a Google suspension?
Google can suspend your Merchant Center account for a vague “Misrepresentation” violation — and your Shopping ads and free listings vanish overnight, with little explanation. Merchant Guard scans your store the way Google's reviewers do, scores your suspension risk, and shows the exact fixes — before Google flags you.
Launching on the Shopify App Store. Free plan available — Pro from $29/mo with a 7-day trial. Read-only access; we never touch your customer data.
Google suspends first and explains later.
A “Misrepresentation” suspension rarely tells you what's actually wrong — merchants lose Shopping ads and free listings for weeks while they guess. Merchant Guard checks your store against the issues Google's reviewers actually flag, so you can fix them before they cost you the channel.
A reviewer's-eye scan
We check your catalog and store pages against Google Merchant Center's prohibited-content and Misrepresentation rules — counterfeit and restricted products, missing prices/images, fake sale prices, and weak contact info.
One honest 0–100 score
A single compliance score across four pillars — prohibited content, product data, store policies, and trust signals — so you know exactly how exposed you are and what's dragging you down.
The exact fixes
Every issue Google may flag, prioritized worst-first, with the specific step to fix it — plus a reconsideration-request outline if your account is already suspended.
Ongoing monitoring
Re-scan anytime and catch new risks before Google does — a newly added prohibited product, a price/availability mismatch, or a policy page that broke.
From risk to fixed, in three steps
Everything runs inside Shopify. One click to install, read-only access to your store, no developer needed.
Scan
Install Merchant Guard and run a scan. It checks your catalog and store pages against Google Merchant Center's disapproval & Misrepresentation rules and scores your risk.
Fix
Work the prioritized fix list — remove prohibited items, fix product data and prices, add contact info and policies — or hand it to your team.
Monitor
Re-scan anytime and watch your compliance score climb. Catch new issues before they put your Google channel at risk.
Honest about what we can and can't do
We're upfront about the limits. Merchant Guard lowers your risk and fixes the issues Google most commonly flags — but no tool can see Google's private decision or guarantee reinstatement. That honesty is the point.
