Getting Started · Updated Jul 17, 2026

Welcome to WiseReviews! In about ten minutes you can have real customer reviews showing on your storefront. This guide walks you through the three setup steps you'll find on the Home page.

After installing the app, open it from your Shopify admin. The Setup guide on the Home page tracks your progress through these steps.

WiseReviews Home page with the Setup guide listing the three tasks: Import reviews, Install review widgets, and Customize widgets

Step 1: Import reviews

If you sell products that already have reviews elsewhere (AliExpress, Amazon, Etsy, and more), import them so your store doesn't start empty:

  1. In the Setup guide, click Import reviews.
  2. Pick your product, paste the marketplace product URL, choose your options, and click Import.

Full details in Import reviews from AliExpress and other marketplaces. Migrating from another review app instead? See Import and export reviews via CSV.

Step 2: Install the review widgets

Widgets are what your customers see: the reviews list, star ratings, and featured reviews on your storefront.

  1. In the Setup guide, click Install widgets.
  2. Enable the WiseReviews app embed in your theme, then add the widget blocks where you want them.

Step-by-step instructions in Install the review widgets on your store.

Step 3: Customize the widgets

Make the widgets match your theme: colors, layout, texts, and language.

  1. In the Setup guide, click Customize widgets.
  2. Adjust the settings and click Save.

See Customize the review widgets.
