PrestaShop Google Reviews: real reviews in your store

The PrestaShop Google Reviews module integrates the Google Places API directly into your PrestaShop 1.7 store, displaying real reviews from your business profile in a modern, responsive card grid.

Reviews are loaded automatically from your Google listing and stored in a local cache. This eliminates unnecessary API calls and ensures your store does not rely on external services to render each page. If a network error occurs, the module serves the previously cached data instead of displaying an error.

Back-office configuration

In the back office, you can configure all settings without touching a single line of code:

  • API Key and Place ID from your Google listing;
  • minimum star rating to display;
  • maximum number of cards to show;
  • cache duration.

A manual refresh button is also available, letting you force new reviews to load without waiting for the cache to expire. Whenever you update the API Key or Place ID, the cache is invalidated automatically.

Native widget and embed on any platform

In addition to the native PrestaShop hook — which places the widget in the footer across all pages — the module includes an embed endpoint (embed.php) that returns ready-to-use JavaScript for any page builder, external website or tool such as Elementor.

The integration code is generated automatically with your store's correct URL and is available with a single click in the back office. This way, you can display your Google reviews both in your PrestaShop store and in other web design projects.

Responsive design with no external dependencies

The widget is fully responsive: the card grid adapts to two columns on tablet and a single column on mobile. CSS is loaded through the PrestaShop asset pipeline, with no external dependencies, no CDN and no third-party JavaScript.

Reviews build trust with your visitors and complement your search ranking efforts. If you want to go further, explore our SEO audit services and discover other modules such as the Rich Snippets addon for PrestaShop.
