Why Use This Widget

Use the My Reviews on Amazon widget when your products sell on Amazon and you want that large pool of verified feedback to support sales on your own site. Shoppers trust Amazon reviews because they come from real buyers, and many will search for them anyway. Embedding those reviews removes friction and keeps decision making inside your pages. This is especially useful for brands building direct to consumer channels, where trust is still forming. Structured Amazon review displays highlight star ratings, volume, and common themes, making the quality signal clear. Seeing strong Amazon proof next to your product story can reduce uncertainty, justify pricing, and increase add to cart rates. It also shows that your product performs well beyond your own marketing environment.
