Has anyone successfully used Cloaking for Google Merchant Center (GMC) in 2026?

Hi BHW community,

I've been running some e-commerce stores lately, mainly focusing on digital products and services. As many of you know, Google Merchant Center has become extremely aggressive with "Account Suspended due to Policy Violation" or "Misrepresentation," especially for non-physical goods.

I’m considering implementing a cloaking solution (like JCI or similar) to protect my GMC accounts and run ads without getting flagged instantly.

My questions for the experts here:

1. Has anyone tried cloaking specifically for GMC recently? Does it still hold up against the latest manual reviews?
2. How do you handle the "Shipping & Return" policy checks while cloaking?
3. Is it better to cloak the entire landing page or just the checkout flow?
4. Are there any specific residential proxy providers you recommend to keep the GMC bot from sniffing the setup?

Looking forward to hearing your experiences or any "war stories" regarding this.

Cheers!

I’ve been running a private invite only cloaker service across several client stores for the past few years, and it has held up well against manual reviews. One of the largest stores using it generates over $1M+ in monthly rev.

If you want to use cloaking for GMC ads, it requires an updated and well configured cloaking setup
