Google is now expanding the rollout of Merchant Center Next to all merchant accounts, following its announcement at Google Marketing Live 2023.
Merchant Center Next (GMC Next) brings a revamped interface and new features to Google’s ecommerce platform, potentially streamlining operations for online retailers.
Key points:
New users and many existing ones already have access.
Features a refreshed user interface.
Reinvents complex features and introduces new experiences.
Classic Merchant Center users are being notified when the update is available.
Why we care. Advertisers should familiarize themselves with the new interface and features to maintain efficiency, as the old interface likely will be deprecated soon.
Yes but. Advertisers who have already tested GMC Next out have faced issues with using the new interface.
July 24th update. Google has confirmed that all retail users will be upgraded to the new Merchant Center Next, by September.
