Ecwid Google Reviews: Show Them on Your Store (2026)

To add Google reviews to Ecwid, connect your store to WiserReview, import reviews from your Google Business Profile, and build a review widget. Then paste its two scripts into Ecwid’s Custom JavaScript code settings and save.

Ecwid’s built-in reviews only show ratings from people who bought on your store, and only on higher plans. Google reviews add proof from customers who found you through Search and Maps.

Below is how the two compare, then all 9 setup steps with a screenshot for each.

Ecwid Product Reviews vs Google Reviews

Option	What it shows	What you need	Shows Google reviews?
Ecwid product reviews (built in)	Star ratings and reviews from buyers, on product pages	Business or Unlimited Ecwid plan	No
WiserReview	Google reviews plus product reviews, with photo and video	From $6.75/mo billed yearly, 7-day free trial	Yes, imported from your Business Profile

Ecwid’s reviews are a good start for product pages. Google reviews speak to the whole business, which matters most for first-time visitors deciding whether to trust you.

How to Add Google Reviews to Ecwid

The setup has two parts. First you connect Ecwid and import your Google reviews into WiserReview, then you add the widget to Ecwid with two scripts.

The video shows how the store connection and review requests work once Ecwid is linked.

Collect More Google Reviews From Ecwid Orders

Google Review Mistakes on Ecwid Stores

• Ignoring negative reviews: reply calmly and show how you fixed the problem. A mix of reviews looks more honest than only five stars.
• Showing too many at once: one carousel or badge per page is easier to read than a wall on every page.
• Using screenshots: pasted images go stale and can’t be checked, while a synced widget stays current.
• Buying or faking reviews: it breaks Google’s rules and can cost you your listing’s reviews.

Wrap Up

Google reviews show Ecwid shoppers that real people trust your business, even before they buy from your store.

Connect your store, import your reviews, and put them where shoppers decide.
