Real buyers vouching for you — automatically.

Mika Store's review system verifies purchase history before a review can be posted. Verified-buyer reviews are more trusted by shoppers — and harder for competitors to fake. An approval queue gives you editorial control, while aggregate star ratings surface in Google search results and product cards.

This feature is included on every Mika Store plan — Basic, Growth and Advanced.

14-day free trial — no charge until day 15

When to use this

Is this right for your store?

Activate reviews from day one if you're in a category where social proof is decisive — health products, high-ticket electronics, furniture, specialist tools, fitness equipment, food and beverage. Reviews are less critical for commodities with little differentiation or B2B catalogues where relationship and specification matter more than testimonials.

In practice

Real-world examples

Supplement brand — building credibility fast

After launch, every fulfilled order triggers a review invite 7 days post-dispatch. Within 6 weeks, flagship products accumulate 40–80 verified reviews. Google starts showing star ratings in search results, increasing organic click-through by an estimated 20–35%.

High-ticket furniture retailer

Enable the queue so every review is read before publishing. Respond publicly to a one-star review explaining the replacement that was sent. Shoppers see the response and trust that the business takes accountability — converting fence-sitters.

Niche hobby goods store

Allow customers to upload photos with their reviews. Product pages for custom paint sets now include 12 customer photos showing the actual results — far more persuasive than staged product shots.


Pro tips

Get the most out of it

💡

Send the review invite 5–10 days after dispatch (not immediately) — give the customer time to actually use the product.

💡

Respond to every one-star review professionally and publicly; potential buyers read how you handle complaints more than the complaint itself.

💡

Don't delete low ratings — a product with 4.3 stars and 80 reviews consistently outperforms a 5.0 with 3 reviews in conversion studies.
