Create a new MC account or use current one (switch)

In order to use our Cobiro CSS solution, you will need to have a CSS-specific Merchant Center account. This account will be created for you automatically when you initiate our Cobiro CSS module.

In order to receive your CSS Merchant Center account, you will only need to provide your Google Ads account ID, an admin email, and your Business name via the CSS module.

Once the information is provided you will need to accept a Google Ads linking request that is sent to your email. After you’ve accepted the linking request, the new Merchant Center account is created for you.

The final step will be to upload your product feed to this new Merchant Center account and you are good to go.

Using existing merchant accounts

If you want to switch from your current CSS provider (including Google) to Cobiro CSS, you can do it via our CSS module.

Please know that if a merchant likes to use Cobiro CSS for Free listing in Europe, the merchant will need to have a non-CSS merchant account (with a claimed domain) as well.
