Meet feed specifications

idealo requires a feed of exact configuration, with product attribute requirements depending on the product type and market.

Each product in the feed must have its price with VAT included. This requires lots of calculations from you.

We had continuous issues integrating with Stylight due to incorrect image positions uploading through our feed. We were able to achieve a custom XML feed that selected specific images to upload to Stylight and help our store get approved. Omega Commerce was quick to respond and helped set everything up which saved us a bunch of time and frustration. This was a months long issue solved in literally 3 days- amazing!!

Great app—used this to replace an old setup for Google Merchant Centre feeds across five websites and will expand this in the near future to cover other advertising platform feed requirements.

Allows for customised feeds for any purpose and liquid coding is possible, meaning the app can suit any business scenario or complex Shopify setup. For example, the internal business logic we use to denote availability is quite complex, and I have been able to use custom liquid coding to translate this back into the exact specification needed to pass this data into Google Merchant Centre—this was simply not possible in our old setups.

Also features SFTP upload capabilities to ensure feeds are up-to-date. The developer of this app is also highly responsive to support or new feature requests. For example, the app did not originally support pulling through the inventory policy data field which I required—one support ticket and an hour later, this feature was launched.

I would highly recommend for anybody looking to get a robust, reliable, customisable solution for sending Shopify data out to places such as Google Merchant Centre, Facebook etc!

Great support from Alexei who worked hard to get everything to work for us. We have a quite complex setup with a Shopify Markets store but they managed to get the feeds to work with CDON after some trial and error. I can gladly recommend Omega Commerce!
This is the best shopping feed app by far. Especially if you want to send Google Shopping the best possible feed. The app can do anything you may need in order to optimize your feed for best results on Google Ads. Also, it's not limited just to Google Shopping. You can also use it for many other platforms such as Bing Ads & Facebook.
