Trustpilot Reviews Widget for Website: Trust, Layouts, and Privacy
Embed Trustpilot reviews in a trust-first UI: URL setup, server-side caching, layouts, and attribution without third-party scripts on your site.
Why Trustpilot reviews matter
Trustpilot is a recognized trust signal—especially for ecommerce and SaaS.
A good Trustpilot widget should:
- Load fast (no heavy third-party scripts)
- Keep cards readable
- Show rating + review count clearly
- Maintain proper attribution
Set it up in GizmoSauce
- Open the editor: /get-widget/trustpilot-reviews
- Paste your Trustpilot profile URL (example:
https://www.trustpilot.com/review/<domain>). - Validate the business preview.
- Choose layout + style preset.
- Click Save & Get Code to publish and embed.
Layouts and placement tips
- Use grid on landing pages.
- Use carousel when space is tight.
- Use list for dedicated reviews pages.
Pair with a compact badge when you just need quick trust near a CTA: /widgets/reviews-badge.
Competitor check: compliance + attribution matters
With Trustpilot in particular, you want a widget that keeps required attribution and doesn’t break when Trustpilot changes UI/scripts.
If you’re comparing platforms:
- Prefer server-side caching (privacy + reliability)
- Keep “View on Trustpilot” links visible
- Don’t hide all negative reviews (filter spam, not reality)
GizmoSauce is designed to render a clean trust UI while keeping the embed lightweight.
FAQ
Do I need Trustpilot API access?
Not always. If you have Business API credentials, that’s the most stable path. Otherwise GizmoSauce can use a server-side ingestion fallback where permissible and cache results.
Will this add cookies or scripts to my site?
GizmoSauce aims for privacy-first embeds. Reviews are fetched server-side and rendered without third-party scripts on customer sites where possible.
Can I mix multiple review sources?
Yes—use /widgets/all-in-one-reviews if you want to combine Google + Trustpilot + more into one widget.
