Google's Requirements
Google has tight guidelines on how to integrate reviews into Google Shopping and the steps involved. You must be able to meet the following requirements:
- You must have a minimum of 50 reviews in your Product Ratings feed.
- You are required to share all your product reviews with Google, including low-star reviews.
- Your reviews must not infringe on other people's intellectual property, be offensive, or spammy.
- Reviews must include quality text, low-quality reviews may not be displayed.
- Retailers should be in charge of collecting and owning review feeds.
- Feeds can contain images owned and submitted by users for product reviews.
Important:Wiremo generates an XML feed containing all approved reviews. Google will manually assess your submission and, at its sole discretion, may decline to integrate the feed if you only allow 4 or 5-star ratings and hide lower-rated reviews. To address any bad reviews, we recommend approving all reviews and adding public replies. The Google policy can be found here in its entirety.
Here is an example of how your products and reviews rating is displayed on Google Shopping feed:
