Incredibly unethical/immoral pricing -- completely useless for small businesses. No matter which way they spin it, $259/month to have the BASIC ability to show your score, is insanity.

Used to have a free widget that displayed score, which they removed. They try justifying their prices by the 'features', which a majority of users likely don't want nor care for.

Switched to making use of Google Reviews -- a free way to display your review score.

I'd be happy to switch back to TrustPilot and edit this review, if their practises became more consumer friendly.

Fake/Non-genuine reviews run rife on Trustpilot. And they do nothing about it to protect businesses. We have 1 star reviews about trainers, we don't even sell trainers... However Trustpilot will not investigate these issues, they allow you to flag, but will just give a generic template response. It's a shame that the site holds such buyer trust because when you start to look at the detail it's clear to see that it has real issues with fake reviews/ bots.
Looking forward to another textbook generic response to follow this below.

Hi,

Thanks for sharing this review.

Widgets and Trustpilot badges can only be placed on a website, by the owner of the website.

I can see that my colleagues from Support have been in touch with you regarding the widgets showing on your website. They advised these were not linked to the Shopify integration but were installed with Trustpilot Google tag manager. From what I can see now, I believe you have been able to remove these accordingly from your website.

Should you still require any assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to our Support department and they will be happy to further assist.

Have a nice day.

Kind regards,
Trustpilot

Support ist zero, agressive expensive price strategy, limited functionalities, WE DO NOT RECOMMEND IT !
We have agreed a multi site domains deal with our customer manager and he doesn't feel like respecting his part of the agreement.
We have paid for Standard Plan but the subscription we got is Free Plan.
We have asked for another customer manager, a call back and of course our money back. We will see what happens !
Whatch out at this company when you sign a deal with them !!! Their pricing is tricky and unclear !
Honestly how ironic (irony number 1) is that: a reviews company has itself 1,8 stars ??? We wanted to downgrade in month 4 of the 12 months contract and received the email from the account manager that is not possible mid-term but only at the end of the contract. Now at the end of the contract she is saying we should have done this 30 days prior to the expiration. We feel ourselves fooled, scamed and extorted ! (by a review company-irony number 2).

Very slow and non-existent support! Claimed they can't access our website to look at the issue, like every other App developer on Shopify, due to their policy. We had to pay a 3rd party developer to fix their App!

UPDATE - They've got even worse! Customer service is nonexistent. Failed sending review invites. Account managers are useless. Only interested in forcing you to buy package upgrades. If you don't they just ignore all contact.

Having used Trustpilot for the past 15 months and gathered over 1600 reviews, the review platform is fine but pretty basic for the price - all the value is in the Trustpilot brand which in our experience doesn't matter as much to our customers as Trustpilot claim that it does. The Shopify integration doesn't include the features that trust pilot account managers and sales staff use to attempt to justify the ridiculous price tag.
eg their split testing (optimizer) feature won't work with the Shopify integration. This makes it really hard to quickly prove if this expensive review service is actually making a difference. Support is painfully slow and account managers just ignore you if you ask them difficult questions. Once they had our money they didn't contact us again until they wanted more money. Stick with the free version, or a lower-cost review platform if your customers just want reviews

Widgets no longer work and nothing can be clicked on the page whilst in edit mode. Extremely buggy and would not recommend.

Shopify is multilingual since years, but Trustpilot refuses to. Invitations only in 1 language, not in different languages per domain / language of the buyer. Widgets are cheap, not possible to change alignment to left or right.

Hi Norvine,

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us, it's much appreciated. You're right, currently multiple language options is not a feature, however we believe that feedback can be a real driver of change and we will pass this on to our development and product teams. We are regularly updating our Shopify integration, so please do keep an eye on integration update notifications as they come through.

Our Widgets allow for multiple TrustBox widgets to be added to your shop. You can drag and drop the widgets to your desired space (this should help with your alignment issues), and you can also choose which landing page to place it on - category page, product page, etc. Here’s a guide that can help you learn more: https://support.trustpilot.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402992727314.

Thank you,
The Trustpilot Team
