Google Shopping ads:

Google Shopping ads display a seller’s listings directly in Google search results and through the Google Shopping service based on search relevancy, listing quality, and the amount bid to display the listing. You can choose to promote some or all of your listings through Google Shopping ads. By purchasing Google Shopping ads, you agree to comply with Google’s policies, including Google Shopping policies and AdWords Terms and Conditions. Violation of these policies may result in the suspension or termination of your Google Shopping campaign.

A. Purchasing Paid Advertising

Ad fees are charged on a cost-per-click (or “CPC”) basis, and you are responsible for paying for any clicks your ad receives. This means that you will be charged only when your ad is clicked, not simply when it is displayed. You may pause an ad campaign at any time, but you will still be responsible for any charges incurred prior to pausing your campaign. Sorry, but Carolina bead shop is not able to grant refunds for any charges related to clicked ads.

Shop-Specific Promotions

A. Sales and Coupons

Sellers on Carolina bead shop may choose to offer promotions specifically for their own shops. Carolina bead shop currently offers two promotional tools: Sales and Coupons.

A Sale is a promotion that offers free shipping or discounts your listing price by a percentage. You can run a sale on a single listing or on multiple listings. Sales are public and will be displayed to all buyers. On occasion, Carolina bead shop may aggregate Sales and promote them through our websites, apps, and emails.

A Coupon is a code that may be redeemed for a discount on an item or free shipping. Coupons are not displayed publicly; as a seller, you may create and distribute Coupons at your discretion. Please note, however, that a Coupon code can be used by any buyer that redeems the code and that a buyer can use a Coupon code on multiple listings and on multiple occasions.

Sellers are responsible for following Carolina bead shop policies and all applicable laws associated with Sales and Coupons. For Sales, it’s your responsibility to set the terms and conditions for the promotion in the “Sale details” section. For Coupons, it’s your responsibility to communicate any terms or limitations for the promotion to buyers when sharing the Coupon code. Sales and Coupons may not be used for fee avoidance, such as lowering your item price while artificially inflating your shipping price.
