Product schema present but missing MerchantReturnPolicy and/or shippingDetails

Your product pages include structured data (the technical signals search engines read), but they're missing two specific pieces Google now requires for online retailers: your return policy details and your shipping information, both in a machine-readable format.

Why this matters

Google supports shipping and return policy markup for product listings, and merchants using Google's shopping features should check Google Merchant Center's current requirements. Without the markup, your listings may not show delivery and returns information, which are details some shoppers weigh when buying.

How to fix it

Ask your developer to add MerchantReturnPolicy and shippingDetails markup to your product structured data. This tells Google your return window, method, and shipping costs in a format it can display directly in search results.
