]Implement and verify
- 01

- 03
Complete regional details
Fill shipping destinations and timing for every region the page actually serves.
- 04
Link the return policy
Use a stable MerchantReturnPolicy URL and keep its terms synchronized with the page.
- 05

- 06
Validate after changes
Run Rich Results Test after implementation and whenever price, availability, or policy data changes.
Common errors and fixes
- Missing currency or availability
Use ISO currency codes and complete schema.org availability URLs in Offer data.
- Incomplete shipping details
Include shippingDestination.addressCountry and deliveryTime.transitTime with units.

Reference MerchantReturnPolicy from the Offer and provide a stable public policy URL.
- FAQ answers differ from the page
Keep structured FAQ answers identical to visible answers.
Stack FAQs
Should I use Offer for free volunteer signups?
Yes. Use price 0.00 with a signup URL so the registration path is explicit.
How do I represent multiple shifts?
Add one Offer per shift (or separate Event pages) with distinct start times and signup URLs.
