One Stop Shop – “Google Shopping” Trademark Filed in Canada

13/5/2019

 
Picture
The phrase “Google™ it” is not only apt for answering our questions, sending our e-mails and playing our music, but it may also change our shopping experience as well as the future of digital shopping.

A Canadian application for the trademark GOOGLE SHOPPING™ was filed earlier this year.  Not surprisingly, the Google Shopping platform is now available in Canada. 
​
Google Shopping is not new – it was originally launched under the name “Froogle” back in 2002. Unfortunately, this fun take on the word “frugal” didn’t last (perhaps because “frugal” and “shopping” don’t mix well?)

Nevertheless, this revamped iteration includes functionality that helps consumers conduct real-time price comparisons, as well as permitting vendors to vie for advertising space and Google AdWords. The platform also features Google’s robust search functionality and web crawler that are used to index product data. The application integrates with the Google Pixel™ phone to allow users to shop online using augmented reality. 
​
With Google’s plans for an enhanced on-line shopping experience, we are curious to see what’s “in store” for us.
