How to add reviews to BigCommerce

The exact steps for BigCommerce, in about five minutes, without a developer.

The short answer

Build a widget, copy one line of code, and paste it into your page. No developer and no theme files.

Step by step

  • Build the widget and connect your review sources

  • Choose a layout and match the colours to your site

  • Copy the embed code

  • In BigCommerce: open your page editor

  • Add an HTML block and paste the code

  • Save and check the live page

Where to put them

Through Script Manager for site-wide placement, or a widget region on a specific template.

Full-width sections suit carousel and grid layouts; narrow columns suit a badge.

Does BigCommerce have reviews built in?

BigCommerce has product reviews built in, with a moderation queue. Store reviews only — nothing from outside.

If your reviews already live on Google or a marketplace, nothing built into a site builder will reach them.

If they do not appear

Check the code is on the page and that changes were published rather than previewed.

The BigCommerce troubleshooting page works through the rest in order.
