Embed Google Reviews on Shopify

GR Widget needs no Shopify app install to show Google reviews on Shopify — just a two-line embed you paste once, and reviews keep syncing from your Google Business Profile automatically.

How to embed Google reviews on Shopify

1

Create your widget

Register at GR Widget (free, no credit card) and search for your business by name.
2

Style your widget

Choose a badge, feed, or carousel layout and match your store's colours in the builder.
3

Copy the embed code

Copy the two-line snippet from the widget editor.
4

Paste it in your theme

In Online Store → Themes → Edit code, paste the <script> tag once in theme.liquid, then place the <div> wherever you want the widget — or add both inside a Custom Liquid section for a single page.
5

Save and preview

Save the template and preview your store. Reviews sync automatically — edit layout or colours from the dashboard anytime.

<script src="https://grwidget.com/v1/grwidget.js" async defer></script>
<div class="grwidget-embed" data-grwidget-key="YOUR_WIDGET_KEY"></div>

On sites with multiple placements, load the <script> tag once in your theme header or footer, then use only the <div> block for each additional placement — product pages, the homepage, and your footer can each show a different layout from the same account.

Where to place your Shopify reviews widget

Next to Add to Cart — a compact star badge on the product template reassures shoppers at the moment of decision.
Homepage hero — a feed or carousel builds trust before visitors even browse products.
Footer — a sitewide badge in theme.liquid keeps your rating visible on every page.

Frequently asked questions

How do I add Google reviews to my Shopify store?

Create your widget in the GR Widget dashboard, copy the two-line embed code, then paste it into theme.liquid (for a sitewide badge) or a Custom Liquid section on Online Store 2.0 themes for a specific page. No app install or API key required.

Do I need a Shopify app for a Google reviews widget?

No. GR Widget works as a lightweight embed code, so there is nothing to install from the Shopify App Store and no ongoing app fee. Paste the snippet once and it keeps syncing automatically.

Will a Google reviews widget slow down my Shopify store?

No — GR Widget loads with a single small async script that does not block page rendering, so it stays out of the way of your Core Web Vitals and checkout speed.

Can I show Google reviews on a specific product page in Shopify?

Yes. Add a Custom Liquid section (or a Custom HTML block, depending on your theme) to the specific product or page template and paste the embed div there — you only need the script tag loaded once per page.
