Zero risk
The maths
Spend 1.300 € a month on Google Shopping?
Most shops do not lower the budget after switching to a CSS, so up to 20% cheaper clicks turn into about 25% more buying power out of the same budget (1 divided by 0.80 equals 1.25). That is growth, not a discount. Example figures.

Questions
Yes. We are a Google-approved CSS (a CSS member), active in all 21 European CSS countries. We move your Shopping clicks off Google's own comparison service and onto ours, which is what removes the margin. The saving comes from the CSS programme itself, which is EU-regulated.
There is none. The CSS programme is regulated by the European Commission as part of its 2017 ruling against Google (case AT.39740). Google is legally required to treat approved CSSs on equal terms with its own service. The saving is real and measurable, not a loophole or a temporary promotion. You simply pay a small monthly fee to a CSS-approved service instead of paying Google's margin on every click.
No. CSS is a Merchant Center-level setting, not a campaign-level change. Your campaigns, feed, bids, conversion data and machine learning are untouched. There is no downtime and nothing to relearn. The only thing that changes is the click price, and it goes down.
Within 24 hours of you granting Merchant Center access. The switch itself takes us under a day to set up and verify.
Yes, and it is often easier. CSS is a Merchant Center-level setting, so your agency does not touch your campaigns at all. They keep managing bids and strategy as normal while we handle the CSS link. If your agency would rather offer CSS under their own brand, our white-label option handles that on a single invoice.
The person behind it
Founder
I ran a marketing agency for five years and set up Google Shopping for all kinds of webshops. Every time I hit the same thing with CSS: expensive, opaque, per-country fees, lock-in, and a support queue where you were just a number.
So I built the thing I always wished existed. One fixed, honest price. All 21 countries included. No lock-in. A real person who answers the phone. I run my own and my clients' Google Shopping through this exact CSS.
I work from Aarhus and serve webshops across Europe.
