Where stores usually get stuck

Merchant Center problems usually come from a repeated mismatch, not a single magic phrase in an appeal.

Trust layer gaps

Thin contact, privacy, returns, shipping, or terms pages can make the store look incomplete.

Product data mismatch

Feed, structured data, product page, and checkout values need to agree.

Unsupported claims

Vague guarantees, suspicious discounts, copied text, or missing evidence can create review risk.
