How it works
Add Google reviews to Thinkific in three steps
- 1
Connect your Google profile
Sign in to WiserReview and link your Google Business Profile. Your existing reviews usually show up within about a minute.
- 2
Pick a widget style
Pick the format that fits your page: review wall, carousel, floating badge, or single-line rating. The widget reads your Thinkific theme's fonts on its own. You can override colors and spacing inside WiserReview.
- 3
Paste into a Thinkific HTML/Embed section
Open your Site Page in the Site Builder, add a new section, pick the HTML/Embed type, and paste the WiserReview embed. Save the page and the widget loads on the next render. Requires the Start plan or higher; the Free plan needs a different approach, covered below.
No access to the Business Profile? Add your business by its Google place ID instead. Google then shares your latest 5 reviews.

Who it is for
Who needs a Google review widget?
Best fit for Thinkific creators whose buyers want proof before enrolling. Cohort-based courses, coaching programs, and digital-product launches tend to see the biggest impact.
Educators selling paid courses
Show learner reviews near your course description and sale price. The wall widget works well above the enroll button on sales pages.
Coaches running structured programs
Proof from past clients on coaching or hybrid program pages lifts signup rate. A carousel of 3 to 5 outcome-focused reviews fits naturally between the program details and the pricing.
Membership site owners
Google reviews work as social proof for subscription pitches. Place them near the value-prop section, not the pricing table itself.
Creators selling digital tools
Selling templates, video kits, or guides through Thinkific Communities or Custom Site Pages? Place reviews near the product section so buyers see real outcomes before they click Buy.
Instructors hosting live cohorts
After your first cohort wraps, collect reviews and reuse them. The carousel widget on your next pre-launch page is the highest-leverage place to put them.
Anyone using Thinkific as their main site
If Thinkific powers your full marketing site, reviews help on every key page: home, about, bundles, and the thank-you page after enrollment.

Thinkific install methods and placement tips
Last verified inside the Thinkific Site Builder in May 2026. Includes a workaround for the Free plan. Every method below has been tested on real Thinkific schools.
Method 1. HTML/Embed section (Start plan or higher)
Set it up in WiserReview
Open the Site Page you want to edit, click Add Section, and pick the HTML/Embed section type. Paste in the WiserReview embed code, save, and preview. The section sits between your other Site Builder blocks and inherits the page's container width on its own.
Method 2. Free plan workaround using a custom Site Page
Set it up in WiserReview
In your WiserReview dashboard, generate the floating badge widget. It gives you a small public iframe URL that some Free-plan Thinkific schools accept inside Custom HTML areas. For the wall, carousel, or popup styles, you'll need to upgrade to Start or higher.
Method 3. Site-wide via Custom Code injection (Grow plan+)
Set it up in WiserReview
Go to Settings, then Site, then Custom Code, and paste the WiserReview script tag into the Header section. Save once and the widget appears site-wide on Site Pages. Note: the Course Player and lesson pages don't run custom site code, so the widget shows on marketing pages but not inside the course experience.
Pick the right widget for Thinkific course sales pages
Set it up in WiserReview
For sales pages, the review wall is the strongest fit just above the pricing section. A floating badge in the corner reinforces trust as the user scrolls through the modules list. The single-line rating snippet works well right under your course title near the top of the page.
Place the widget where students actually decide
Set it up in WiserReview
For coaching or cohort programs, the spot between the program details and the application form is the highest-leverage placement. For evergreen courses, place reviews between the curriculum overview and the pricing table. The footer is a bad spot on Thinkific sales pages; engagement drops off sharply there.
Match the widget to your Thinkific theme
Set it up in WiserReview
If you're using the Grow plan or higher with Theme Code access, target the .wiser_review_wall class to tweak spacing or colors without going into the widget settings. For non-CSS users, the WiserReview design panel handles font weight, padding, and background tone.
Test on Thinkific Preview before going live
Set it up in WiserReview
Use the preview button in the Site Builder before publishing the page. A common gotcha: if the widget shows up empty on first preview, that's usually the Thinkific cache. Refresh once and it should appear. If it's still empty after the refresh, an analytics-blocker extension is probably intercepting the WiserReview script.

FAQ
Google reviews on Thinkific, answered
Site Pages only. The Course Player and lesson pages don't run custom embeds for security reasons. The widget renders on sales pages, custom Site Pages, your home page, and any marketing page built through the Site Builder. We last tested it in May 2026.
The HTML/Embed section may be limited or unavailable on the Free plan depending on your provisioning. Two workarounds. The first is the floating badge widget from your WiserReview dashboard, which uses a small public iframe URL. It works in some Free-plan setups but is limited to the badge style. The second is to upgrade to Start or higher, which unlocks the full HTML/Embed section type and every widget style.
Yes. The HTML/Embed section sits inside a standard Site Builder container, so it inherits the theme's font stack, container width, and color theme on its own. We've tested it on the default Vision theme and on three other common Thinkific themes.
Yes. Create separate widgets in your WiserReview dashboard with different tag filters, then paste the matching embed code into each course's Site Page. As an example: your business course sales page can show business-tagged reviews, while your design course shows design-tagged ones.
No. The WiserReview script loads asynchronously after Thinkific's first paint, so it doesn't block the page from rendering. Adds about 18KB to total page weight in our measurements and doesn't affect course video load speed.
Communities marketing pages built through the Site Builder support the HTML/Embed section. The Community feed itself runs on a separate UI that doesn't accept custom embeds, similar to the Course Player.
Yes. Connect Thinkific's webhook for course completion to WiserReview, and we'll send a review request email automatically. The Order Created webhook works the same way for new enrollments.
Yes. Every widget style is responsive out of the box. On Thinkific's mobile-stacked sales page layouts, the wall widget stacks vertically and the carousel becomes a swipe scroll. Worth testing in the Site Builder preview before you publish.
