FAQs
Do I need to pay a fee to add products to Google using Pointy?
No, adding your in-store products to Google with Pointy is free of charge.
Can I add my products to Google with Pointy if I have a brick and mortar pharmacy?
Yes, Pointy is built specifically for brick and mortar stores. You don't need an eCommerce store to add products to Google. As you scan products, Pointy finds an image and description to match the UPC/EAN barcode number and adds it to Google. This helps customers searching on Google to see what products you carry and visit your brick & mortar pharmacy to buy.
What if I already have an eCommerce site?
Some retailers using Pointy have an eCommerce site as well as a physical store. They use Pointy to add their in-store products to their Business Profile, as an additional way to promote their in-store products.
How does Pointy work with my Business Profile on Google?
Pointy adds your product inventory information directly to the Business Profile. Right along with other great information about your pharmacy like opening hours, contact details and reviews. Products display on the “See What’s In Store” or SWIS module on the Business Profile. When clicked, it opens onto the local store front to show more information, like whether the product is in stock. Products can also be shown with or without prices.
