Tools / Misrepresentation risk score

Misrepresentation risk score

Misrepresentation is the highest-severity GMC enforcement category. This calculator weights the signals Google names in its public policy documentation: business identity consistency, contact transparency, price accuracy, refund / return clarity, and shipping declaration vs reality. The weighting itself is this tool's own, not Google's; each input is a percentage of pages where the signal is satisfied.

This number comes entirely from the 5 sliders above, run through the formula shown below. It's a simplified estimate, not a scan of your store or an official Google score.

Formula

risk = 100 - ((0.30 x identity) + (0.15 x contact) + (0.20 x price) + (0.20 x returns) + (0.15 x shippingMatch))
