Ecwid is built for selling across websites, social media, and marketplaces from one central store.
It is fast, flexible, and easy to embed anywhere. But even with smooth checkout and multichannel selling, shoppers hesitate if they do not trust your products.
Without reviews, visitors question quality, delivery, and reliability. Reviews solve this by showing real customer experiences at the exact moment buyers decide.
With WiserReview, you can add reviews to Ecwid stores without slowing pages or breaking integrations.
Why add reviews on Ecwid?
Ecwid stores rely on trust to convert visitors across multiple platforms. Reviews directly improve confidence and sales.
1. Increase product page conversion rates
Ecwid product widgets are often embedded on different websites and platforms. Reviews help validate products instantly.
Next, follow the steps below to show clean, high-converting reviews on your store.
Start by importing your existing reviews via a direct integration or CSV import.
If you do not yet have reviews, you can start collecting them with WiserReview automations.
After that, go to the Widgets section. You will see multiple product review widgets designed to build trust and help visitors make decisions.
For this example, we chose the product review section. You can customize it to match your brand colors and layout. Once everything looks right, click Install.
You will then see the JavaScript, iframe, and URL options for embedding the widget on your store.
