The 9 Best Shopify Review Apps For Earning Customer Trust

Gaining the trust of your shoppers is everything in ecommerce.

Think about it: A shopper comes to your store without knowing anything about your brand. They shop around, investigating your product descriptions, product photos, and videos. But, they don’t see any positive reinforcement from your happy customers.

Why should they trust that your products are as great as you say?

No matter how good your marketing is, shoppers put their trust in the opinions of other shoppers. So, you need to get customer reviews and add them to your Shopify store.

To do that effectively, you need a product review app that helps you capture your customers’ reviews and then display them on your product pages and other pages that are vital to the buyer journey.

Let’s look at the best Shopify review apps.
