PrestaShop Testimonial Module for Photo and Video Reviews

To add testimonials to PrestaShop, install the WiserReview module from Modules > Module Manager > Upload a module, paste your API key, and turn on the review section. It then collects photo, video, and text testimonials after each order.

PrestaShop’s built-in Product Comments module handles basic text reviews, and Addons modules add a testimonial block. Neither asks customers for a testimonial after they buy, which is why most stores end up with only a handful.

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

Product Comments vs Testimonial Modules vs WiserReview

Option	Cost	Photo and video	How testimonials are collected
Product Comments (built in)	Free	No, text and star ratings only	Customers leave a comment on the product page
Testimonial module from Addons	Free to a one-time fee, by module	Some modules allow images or video	Customers submit a form on your site
WiserReview module	From $6.75/mo billed yearly, 7-day free trial	Yes, photo and video	Automatic requests after each order, plus imports

If you only need star ratings on a few products, Product Comments is enough.

If you want testimonials coming in on their own, with photos and video, a module that sends requests after each order does the work for you.

Tips for Better PrestaShop Testimonials

• Ask for specifics: a request that asks what the product helped with gets more useful answers than “rate us.”
• Lead with photos and video: customer photos show the real product, which text alone can’t. These video testimonial statistics show why.
• Time the request to delivery: set the order status to Delivered, so customers have used the product before they’re asked. You can adjust timing, reminders, and photo requests under Automate.
• Reply to every testimonial: a short thank-you shows future buyers that someone reads them.

Testimonial Mistakes to Avoid

• Showing only generic praise: “Great product!” doesn’t help anyone decide. Feature testimonials with details.
• Ignoring mobile: check your widgets on a phone, where most shoppers will see them.
• Crowding the page: one carousel or wall works better than testimonials in every block. These testimonial statistics cover what shoppers pay attention to.
