Everything you should know about Google CSS and Feedve

Google CSS (Comparison Shopping Service) is part of an official Google program that allows you to display Google Shopping ads and free product listings in a different way than standard Google Shopping. The result? • Lower cost per click (CPC) • Greater bidding power in auctions • More visibility with the same budget It's not a system workaround. It's an official Google program.

You get: • Up to 20% lower CPC in Google Shopping • Access to free product listings • Whitelabel option (your brand visible in ads) • Full control over campaigns in Google Ads • Zero changes to strategy, feeds and account settings No tricks. No risk. No extra work.

The discount is built into the Google auction. Example: • You bid 0.80 USD through CSS • Google treats it as 1.00 USD in standard Shopping Result: ✓ You win more auctions ✓ You get better positions ✓ You really pay less for the same click It's a systemic advantage, not a 'bill discount'.

Yes. Google allows it. But: • You don't bid against yourself • The click price doesn't double • Google doesn't penalize multiple CSS It's neutral technically, a purely strategic decision.

No — CSS is infrastructure, not an agency for 'clicking'. You can: • Run campaigns yourself • Outsource them to your agency • Use CSS as pure cost advantage If you want — we can also get operational. But that's a separate decision, not a requirement.

Standard: 'By Feedve' In the whitelabel version: 'By Your Brand' This means: • You build recognition • You strengthen your agency position • The customer attributes the result to you, not Google

No. CSS is an official Google program. All partners (including Google Shopping) have equal rights in the auction. There's no: ✗ Penalties ✗ Worse positions ✗ 'Shadowbans' Just better auction math.
