Options to Display Google Reviews<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
There are mainly three ways to display Magento 2 Google customer reviews, let\u2019s see them real quick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Using a Google Review Widget Extension (Recommended)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
You can use a third-party extension like Meetanshi Magento 2 Google Reviews Widget to pull and display real Google reviews directly on your store. Using it is easiest to manage with basic coding skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It offers a backend panel where you can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Add Place ID and API key<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Customize layout, colors, button text, and number of reviews<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Control display on desktop, tablet, and mobile<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Embed reviews via CMS blocks, pages, or .phtml templates<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
2. Use API Integration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
If you are good with coding and developing, then use Google\u2019s Places API to fetch and display reviews dynamically. This method will give you full control over customization and appearance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Add Screenshot or Clickable Badges<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
If you prefer a lightweight approach, then opt for taking screenshots of standout Google Reviews and uploading them as images under the \u201cTestimonials\u201d section or page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can also add a clickable link or badges that redirect users to Google business review page, but the method won\u2019t show reviews directly on your Magento store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
