This article provides instructions on how to link and unlink Shopify with your Google Ads account. There are two methods to choose from.
The recommended method is to install and use the Google & YouTube app on Shopify. The app allows you to easily connect and integrate your Shopify account with your Google Ads account so that your Shopify store information, customer lists and product data are all automatically shared and synced with Google.
Another method is available if you prefer not to use the Google & YouTube app but still want to link your Shopify store data and use Google’s Customer Match to reach and re-engage with your customers. Follow the steps below.
How it works
You can connect Shopify on your serving account and on your Google Ads Manager account with Customer Match. Note: Make sure that any Shopify store data meets the requirements for using Customer Match.
