Scan Your Store for Google Shopping Compliance
The Google Shopping app helps you review your BurgerShop store before submitting products to Google Merchant Center.
After enabling the app, you can run a Store Health scan to check common website compliance issues that may affect your Google Shopping setup. This helps you identify and fix problems before connecting or using Google Merchant Center.
Important
The Store Health scan helps detect common issues that may cause Google Merchant Center review problems or account suspension. However, passing the scan does not guarantee Google approval. Sellers should still review and follow Google Merchant Center policies

Website scan vs feed scan
There are two different scan types in the Google Shopping workflow
| Scan type | What it checks | Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Website scan / Store Health scan | Checks your storefront compliance, trust signals, policies, navigation, and store setup | Available after enabling the Google Shopping app |
| Feed scan | Checks product feed data connected to Google Merchant Center | Available only after connecting a Google Merchant Center account |
Important
You can scan your website after enabling the Google Shopping app. To scan or sync product feed data, you must connect your Google Merchant Center account first.
Before you start
Before running a Store Health scan, make sure your store has:
- A live storefront
- At least one active product
- Store contact information
- Shipping policy
- Return or refund policy
- Terms of service
- Privacy policy
- Working navigation links
- Store domain and HTTPS enabled
- Clear product prices and checkout flow
The more complete your store is, the more useful the scan result will be.
