Post a product review

Give your customers points for writing product reviews

Written by Ana Rincon

Introduction

Product reviews build trust and credibility for your store while helping customers make informed purchasing decisions. By rewarding your customers with loyalty points for each review they submit, you can increase review collection while growing your loyalty program membership at the same time! This guide will show you how to set up and customize the product review rewards feature.

Common questions

I can’t see my product review app. What can I do?

If you don’t see your product review app, please reach out to us on live chat or via [email protected] - We’ll be happy to help!

Will the app award points to all my customers?

By default, Rivo awards Loyalty points to Members only. However, you can change the Points program participation in your settings. Please check out Change Points program participants for more information.

Can I limit how many times a customer earns points for reviews?

Yes! When setting up the Way to Earn, check the option “Limit how many times each customer can earn points for completing this action” and specify the maximum number. This is recommended for review actions to prevent potential abuse.

Why did a customer still get points more than once even though my limit is set to once per year?

In most cases, this happens when review events are sent with a different customer identity than prior events (for example, a different email), or when multiple workflows are awarding the same action. Frequency limits are applied per customer record and earning action.

Does the frequency limit block review submissions?

No. Customers can still leave reviews in your review app. The limit controls how often points are awarded.

How can I reduce duplicate review rewards?

Use these checks:

  • Keep one active workflow per review app trigger

  • Use a stable customer identifier (typically the shopper email used at checkout)

  • Prefer a “new review submitted” trigger instead of update/edit triggers when possible

  • Add a Verified Buyer condition if your review app supports it

Do I need Shopify Flow for this feature?

Most review app integrations (Loox, Okendo, Stamped, REVIEWS.io, and Yotpo) require Shopify Flow, which is available on Shopify, Advanced, or Shopify Plus plans. JudgeMe integration works directly through an API connection and requires the JudgeMe Awesome plan.

Can customers see a link to leave reviews in their account?

Yes, for Yotpo integration, customers can see a “Leave a review” link for their purchased products in their account dashboard.
