Google Reviews

Get star ratings on your online store with Google Customer Reviews and increase the visibility of your online store and shopping ads.

Rating of the online store

Google Customer Reviews is an extension of Google Shopping that allows your customers to provide feedback after they have completed a purchase in your online store. If you have this service installed, your customers will be asked during checkout if they want to sign up for the survey (see the screenshot below). The survey only contains questions about the customer's experience of shopping in the online store. Once you have received 50 feedbacks with a rating above 3.5 out of 5 possible, your Google Customer Reviews Badge will be available.

Product rating on the shopping network

With 50 or more feedbacks, you also get the opportunity to activate "Google Product Rating" in Google Merchant Center. With this feature, star ratings become available on Google Shopping campaigns when a product has at least three feedbacks.

Note! Google Product Rating requires that valid EAN codes (barcodes) are entered in the control panel on the product in question. Google collects the barcodes and checks them before linking feedbacks to the product.
