Google tests "Good Price" labels on Shopping ads
Google is testing a "Good Price" annotation appearing beneath prices on Shopping ads, flagged by Sachin Patel on X. The label adds a value signal to the listing, telling shoppers the price compares well, alongside related tests including a light-grey background for the "Sponsored results" label and a dotted-underline format for sitelink assets on mobile.
What changed
The annotation is part of Google's wider effort to layer trust and value cues into sponsored placements. As with the other format tests this week, it is an experiment rather than a confirmed rollout, and advertisers cannot directly control whether the label appears.
Why it matters for advertisers
For you, this means price-competitive products may gain an automated value cue in Shopping ads if the test rolls out. Worth keeping pricing and feed data sharp, since the label appears to be triggered by how an offer's price compares rather than anything an advertiser sets.
