How do I bring my reviews from another site?
Updated · Getting started
Paste the link to your reviews on another review site, add your export where the site needs one, and your reviews come over with their stars and dates. Importing comes with Starter, Growth, and Professional.
Where to start
In setup, it is the Your reviews step. Any time after, select Import reviews on Reviews.
Bring them over
- Paste the link to your store's page on the review site.
- If the site keeps your reviews in your account, export them there and add the file. A .zip works as it comes, so you don't need to open it.
- Select the import button. It shows how many reviews it found.
Some sites need only the link, and there is nothing to download.
We match the stars, date, reviewer, and text to your file's columns. If we can't tell which column is which, pick each one under Match your columns. You can change a match with Change.
The page has to be yours
Only your own store's reviews can be imported. A page that names another store's address is turned away.
What happens next
Every review comes over, whatever its rating. Each one goes through the same compliance screening as a review written here, and goes live once it passes. If none of its words can be kept, its stars are published alone. What does compliance screening remove?
Imported reviews count toward your rating. They don't carry Verified purchase, since we can't match them to an order, so they count 50% toward your score. Importing again adds only the reviews that are new.
Reviews that were taken down
If your reviews were removed, or we can't read your site's export, contact us. Our team will help bring them over.
