Upload Your Product Video
Upload your product video to eCommercePlayer. We convert it to a web-optimized MP4 format suitable for Google Shopping.

After creating a player, use the direct video link from eCommercePlayer. This is the URL you will add to your product feed.
Add to Your Product Feed
In your Google Merchant Center product feed (CSV, XML, or API), add the video URL to the video_link attribute for the corresponding product.
