Step 1: Google Requirements

To use Reserve with Google on your listings in Yext, your brand needs to be configured in Google as a Yext partner. You’ll also need to ensure that you have location-specific services pages created.

Request Brand Creation in Google

To request your brand creation in Google, file a ticket with Yext Support with the following information:

  • Your website domain for your bookings
  • An image file of your business logo. Your logo must meet these requirements:
    • Format: PNG
    • Max file size: 1024KB
    • Total logo size: 512x512 pixels.
    • The central artwork or design of your logo should fit within a 384x384 pixel square, with a 128 pixel margin of empty background space.
  • Color space: sRGB
    • The background should not be transparent.
    • The background color should take up the entire 512x512 px square.
    • There should not be any shadow on the logo.

See Google’s documentation for full details on Google’s logo requirements and an example logo.

Location-Specific Services Pages

You should already have location-specific pages created that your users will be directed to when they click a Reserve with Google CTA on your listing.

Your services pages should reflect the specified service and the professional or location that corresponds with the listing. For example, if you want to add a Book Online CTA to your listings, the CTA should bring the user directly to an online appointment booking page for the specific location that the listing corresponds to (as opposed to a generic homepage).

Later in this guide, you’ll also set up Google conversion tracking for your services pages.
