Before you start
What Shopify asks for.
- Your theme has to offer a Custom Liquid section. Every theme in the Shopify Theme Store is required to have one.
- A staff account needs the Themes permission.
- The Starter plan does not allow theme changes like this one.

Google reviews on Shopify: what works
They are reviews of your business, not of a product
Google reviews say what it is like to buy from you: delivery, service, returns. They suit the home page, where a new visitor decides whether to trust the store.
Choose the template with care
A section added to the home page template shows once. A section added to a product template shows on every product that uses that template, which is a lot of repetition for reviews that are not about the product.
Check it in the store, not the theme editor
The theme editor does not always run the snippet again after a change. Open the store in a new tab to see the reviews.
What the free plan covers
ReTestimonial's free plan brings in up to 25 Google reviews at a time, from 1 location, and shows a small “Powered by ReTestimonial” badge. You do not sign in to Google: you find your business by name, and the builder reads its public reviews.
Which reviews show, how new ones arrive and what the paid plans add are answered on the Google reviews widget page.
How these steps were checked
Checked against Shopify's own help pages.
The steps were checked for a testimonial widget from the same builder. A Google reviews widget goes onto the page with the same kind of snippet, so the steps do not change.
