Yes. For an online store, you generally want a tool that covers four jobs: collect reviews, moderate them, display them on-site, and reuse customer photos/videos as UGC.
| Tool | Best for | Reviews | Photo/video UGC | Moderation | Notable strength |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Judge.me | Best value / Shopify | ✅ | ✅ |
Google AI ModeOct 5, 2026
ChatGPT SearchOct 14, 2026
My goal is to collect photo and video reviews from customers. What's the best customer reviews app with visual review support?
| ✅ |
| Unlimited review collection and strong free tier |
| Loox | Visual UGC | ✅ | ⭐⭐⭐ | ✅ | Particularly focused on photo/video reviews |
| Okendo | Growing DTC brands | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Reviews, attributes, surveys and customer insights |
| Yotpo | Larger/enterprise stores | ✅ | ⭐⭐⭐ | ⭐⭐⭐ | Reviews + visual UGC + broader marketing ecosystem |
| Trustpilot | Brand reputation | ⭐⭐⭐ | Limited | ✅ | Third-party business/site reviews |
| Bazaarvoice | Enterprise retail | ⭐⭐⭐ | ⭐⭐⭐ | ⭐⭐⭐ | Large-scale review collection and syndication |
Judge.me is particularly attractive if you're on Shopify and don't want your review costs to grow rapidly with order volume. It supports automated review requests, unlimited reviews, photo/video reviews, review widgets, galleries and syndication. Its free plan includes unlimited photo and video reviews.
I'd choose it if: you want a relatively inexpensive, full-featured review system without building a complicated UGC stack.
Loox is heavily oriented around customer photos and videos. It can collect reviews through email, SMS, WhatsApp and QR codes, automatically flag problematic reviews, and display visual reviews through customizable widgets.
I'd choose it if: your products benefit from seeing them "in real life"—fashion, beauty, home goods, food, accessories, etc.
Okendo is worth considering when you want more than basic star ratings: richer customer attributes, media reviews, surveys and segmentation can make reviews useful for both conversion and customer research.
I'd choose it if: you have enough review volume that analyzing why customers like or dislike products is valuable.
Yotpo combines reviews, visual UGC, moderation, on-site displays, syndication and other marketing capabilities. Its moderation system supports manual approval/rejection, profanity and sentiment filtering, tagging and custom workflows.
Its Visual UGC product can also collect visual content from reviews, Instagram and on-site uploads, obtain permission, moderate it, organize it into galleries, and display it on product pages.
I'd choose it if: you're a larger brand and want reviews/UGC integrated with a broader retention and marketing stack. Yotpo's current Reviews plans start at $89/month for up to 500 orders/month, with higher tiers adding more advanced capabilities.
Trustpilot is different from a typical product-review app: it's particularly useful for building third-party reputation around your company, rather than simply putting product reviews underneath each product.
I'd choose it if: customers need reassurance about the company itself—especially for a newer or less-known brand.
Bazaarvoice is worth investigating if you're operating at significant scale and need sophisticated review syndication, retailer relationships and enterprise UGC management rather than simply installing a Shopify app.
Shopify itself supports syncing reviews from several partner apps, including Judge.me, Loox, Okendo, Stamped.io and Yotpo. Reviews can flow between the partner app and Shop, including eligible image/video content.
So my shortlist would be:
One important consideration: don't choose solely on the number of features. Review migration, page speed, moderation quality, review authenticity/verification, Google rich results, integrations, and whether you retain ownership/exportability of your review data can matter considerably more.
If you tell me what ecommerce platform you're using (Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, custom, etc.) and roughly how many orders/month you have, I can narrow this to the 3 best choices and compare their current pricing and features.
To collect, moderate, and display customer reviews and user-generated content (UGC) on your online store, you need tools that handle the full lifecycle: automated post-purchase collection, spam/fake review filtering, and high-converting on-site display widgets.
The best platforms tailored for e-commerce range from all-in-one retention suites to enterprise syndication networks and visual UGC curators:
If you can share which e-commerce platform your store runs on (e.g., Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento) and your approximate monthly order volume , I can help you narrow down which tool offers the best native integration and cost-to-value ratio for your business.
To let customers upload photos and videos with their reviews and display them neatly on your site, the right tool depends entirely on what e-commerce platform you are using.
Instead of building a file-upload system from scratch (which requires handling video compression, storage costs, and security moderation), dedicated third-party widget apps integrate directly into your store.
When picking a tool, make sure it includes:
To help narrow down the exact right choice, let me know:
ChatGPT SearchOct 11, 2026
If you want customers to upload photos and videos with their product reviews and have that content appear on your website, I’d recommend a visual reviews platform (UGC — user-generated content) rather than building an upload system from scratch.
The best option depends on what platform your site runs on, whether you want reviews and media displayed automatically, and how much control you need over moderation and design.
(Best budget option)
Best if you use Shopify
Customers can submit photo and video reviews, and you can display them in review widgets, carousels, and galleries. Its Forever Free plan includes photo and video reviews; the Awesome plan is listed at $15/month.
If you want to collect customer reviews, approve or reject submissions, and publish authentic customer feedback, photos, and videos directly on your online store, there are several established ecommerce software platforms designed for exactly this workflow.
The best choice depends on whether you primarily need product reviews, visual user-generated content (UGC), or an end-to-end platform that also distributes customer content to social media and retail marketplaces.
Best for comprehensive reviews and UGC management
Collect product reviews, ratings, customer photos, videos, and Q&A. Moderate submissions, control publication, display content in store widgets, and distribute reviews to supported external channels.
Best for: Growing ecommerce brands that want one platform for collection, moderation, and publishing.
Best for review collection and hands-on approval
Offers review collection, moderation controls, publishing and rejection workflows, and on-site review and media displays. You can also configure automatic publishing if you don't want to approve every submission manually.
Best for: Merchants who want control over what appears on product pages, particularly Shopify stores.
Best for enterprise brands and retail distribution
Combines ratings and reviews, questions and answers, content moderation, creator marketing, and syndication across a large retail network.
Best for: Established brands and retailers that need enterprise workflows and distribution beyond their own website.
Best budget-friendly option for Shopify
Collect text, photo, and video reviews; automate post-purchase review requests; manually moderate submissions; and publish approved reviews using storefront widgets. A free plan is available, with paid upgrades for additional features.
Best for: Small businesses and merchants looking for an affordable starting point.
Best for reviews, testimonials, and customer-generated media
Provides tools for collecting product and company reviews, gathering photo and video testimonials, and displaying social proof on ecommerce sites. It is worth comparing if you want feedback beyond standard product ratings.
Best for: Stores that want customer testimonials alongside product reviews.
| Platform | Main strength | Manual approval | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yotpo | Reviews, visual UGC, syndication | Yes | Growing and larger brands |
| Okendo | Review moderation and display | Yes | Shopify-focused stores |
Feature availability and integrations vary by plan and ecommerce platform. Confirm the specific approval workflow and pricing before purchasing.
One important consideration: approval should be about authenticity, spam, relevance, and policy compliance—not simply removing negative feedback. A trustworthy review program should give customers a fair opportunity to share both positive and negative experiences.
What ecommerce platform does your store use?
1. Ecommerce platform
Shopify
WooCommerce
BigCommerce
Adobe Commerce / Magento
Custom or another platform
2. What content do you want to collect?
Product reviews and ratings
Reviews and photos/videos

Yotpo, Loox, Okendo, and Videowise are leading software solutions that enable you to gather, moderate or approve, and publish customer feedback, reviews, and user-generated content (UGC) directly onto your online store.[](https://www.shoplift.ai/post/top-10-ugc-apps-for-shopify-brands)
These platforms specialize in capturing customer sentiment, providing moderation workflows to approve the best photos, videos, and text, and displaying them via customizable widgets on product pages.

Several e-commerce review app providers let customers submit product reviews with photo and video uploads. If you're evaluating options for your online store, the leading choices include Judge.me, Loox, Yotpo, Okendo, and Stamped. The best fit depends on your e-commerce platform, budget, and whether you prioritize visual customer content or broader marketing integrations.
Judge.me
A budget-friendly option for collecting customer reviews, including photos and videos. Worth considering if you want core review functionality without a large monthly expense.
Best for: value and straightforward review collection.
Loox
Focuses on visual reviews, photo galleries, and customer-generated content. A strong candidate for brands where shoppers benefit from seeing products used by real customers.
Best for: photo-first reviews and visual social proof.
Yotpo
A broader customer-marketing platform with product reviews and visual user-generated content capabilities, suitable for businesses needing more than a basic review widget.
Best for: review collection alongside other marketing tools.
Okendo
Offers product reviews and customer-generated content features, with integrations for growing direct-to-consumer brands.
Best for: review data, customer attributes, and marketing integrations.
Stamped
Provides product-review collection and display tools, including customer photo and video reviews.
Best for: an established review solution with marketing features.
These providers are among the options identified in current e-commerce review-app comparisons. Confirm the precise media-upload features and plan restrictions before choosing, as they can vary by subscription tier.
Which e-commerce platform do you use? Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Magento/Adobe Commerce, or something else? I can narrow the list to apps that integrate with your platform and support both customer photo and video uploads.
Google AI ModeSep 24, 2026
Several prominent review and user-generated content (UGC) apps integrate with major e-commerce platforms (like Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, etc.) and natively support photo and video uploads from customers.
Top providers offering robust photo and video review features include:
What you’re looking for is usually called product review syndication: a tool takes reviews collected in your own online store and distributes eligible reviews to third-party retailer websites, marketplaces, or shopping channels, where they can appear on the matching product listings.
The best option depends on where you want the reviews to appear. Sending reviews to Walmart.com or Target.com, for example, is a different integration from sending ratings to Google Shopping or Facebook and Instagram Shops.
(Broad retail reach)
Best for brands that sell their products through major retailers and want their reviews distributed across a large retailer network. Bazaarvoice advertises a network of more than 2,300 retailers and supports partnerships with other review providers.
Best if you want to collect reviews on your store and syndicate them to supported external channels without replacing your entire ecommerce setup. Yotpo documents integrations with Bazaarvoice, Walmart, Target, and Meta, depending on the plan and integration.
A strong option if you want to distribute reviews to retailers without necessarily switching your existing review-collection provider. Its Syndication Only program supports importing existing product and review feeds for distribution to participating retailers.
Google Merchant Center
For product ratings and review stars on Google Shopping listings and eligible Shopping ads. You can upload a review feed yourself or use an approved aggregator. Google requires at least 50 reviews across your products for its Product Ratings program.

Shopify Shop app
If your store runs on Shopify, supported review apps can share eligible product reviews to Shop. This is a more native route than setting up a broad retailer syndication contract.
| Your main goal | Start with |
|---|---|
| Get reviews onto major retailer websites | Bazaarvoice |
| Collect reviews and distribute them through one provider | Yotpo |
| Keep your current review system and distribute existing reviews | PowerReviews Syndication Only |
| Show product stars on Google Shopping | Google-approved aggregator or direct Merchant Center feed |
| Share reviews to Shopify's app |
One important caveat: syndication doesn't guarantee publication. Destination platforms may moderate reviews, require matching product identifiers such as UPCs or GTINs, and restrict which reviews they accept.
The most important question is: where do you want your store's reviews to appear?
1. What platform is your store built on?
Shopify
WooCommerce
BigCommerce
Adobe Commerce (Magento)
Custom / another platform
2. Where should the reviews appear?
Retailer websites (Walmart, Target, Ulta, etc.)
Google Shopping and product listing ads
Marketplaces (Amazon, eBay, etc.)
Facebook and Instagram Shops
Several of these destinations
3. Do you want to keep your current review provider?
Yes, keep it
I'm open to switching
I don't have one yet
4. What's your approximate monthly budget?
Free or low-cost
Mid-range subscription

To push your store's customer reviews to external platforms (a process known as review syndication ), your options depend entirely on where you want those reviews to appear and your budget/scale.
The industry is split into three tiers based on your destination channels:

What you’re looking for is called review syndication: a service that takes authentic customer reviews collected in your online store and distributes them to external retailers, where they can appear on matching product pages.
The main options are Bazaarvoice, PowerReviews, and Yotpo. The best fit depends on which retailers you want to appear on (such as Walmart, Target, Amazon, or other retail partners) and which review platform your store already uses.
(Best for broad retail reach)
A major review syndication network for brands selling through large retail partners. It distributes product reviews, ratings, and other user-generated content to participating retailers.
Google AI ModeOct 14, 2026
Best for a more comprehensive review system
Supports customer photo and video uploads, moderation before publication, review widgets, and visual galleries. Photo and video reviews are listed in its Starter plan, starting at $15/month, with pricing that scales by order volume.
Worth evaluating for a branded storefront
Consider it if you want a polished review experience integrated with your customer marketing tools. Confirm its current video-upload features and plan limits for your specific website before choosing.
Whichever you choose, make sure it supports manual approval before publishing, file-size limits, mobile uploads, spam protection, and permission to display customer-submitted content.

To help narrow down the exact software or setup you need, tell me:
If you want reviews collected on your own ecommerce store to appear on external product detail pages, retailer websites, Google Shopping, or other shopping listings, you're looking for a platform with product review syndication.
The main options fall into two categories: networks that distribute reviews to retail partners (such as Target or Walmart) and review platforms that send eligible reviews to Google Shopping and other discovery channels. The right choice depends on where you want your reviews to appear.
1. Bazaarvoice
(Retailer reach)
Best for brands selling products through major retailers. Its syndication network distributes product reviews and user-generated content to a large network of retail product pages. Bazaarvoice also supports third-party review-platform integrations.
Best for: Brands that sell on multiple retailer websites and need broad retail distribution.
2. Yotpo
Strong for ecommerce merchants who want to collect reviews on their own store and distribute them elsewhere. Supported options include Google Shopping, Walmart, Target, and the Bazaarvoice retail network, subject to the relevant integration and account requirements.
Best for: Shopify and other ecommerce stores wanting one review platform for multiple distribution channels.
3. PowerReviews
Offers outbound review and user-generated content syndication to retail partners and Google Shopping. Its syndication-only offering is particularly relevant if you want to distribute existing reviews without replacing your current review collection provider.
Best for: Established brands and merchants who already have a review system and want wider distribution.
These are especially relevant if your main goal is to get reviews onto Google product listings rather than into a large retailer network.
4. Judge.me
A practical option for Shopify merchants. Supports syndication to Google Shopping and other shopping channels. Google Product Ratings eligibility requires at least 50 product reviews collected through Judge.me.
5. REVIEWS.io
Offers Google Shopping product stars and Google Seller Ratings. The distinction matters: product ratings relate to individual products, while seller ratings reflect the overall shopping experience.
6. Okendo
Another option for ecommerce brands collecting product reviews on their own store and sending eligible reviews to Google Shopping. Google's current aggregator guidance lists a minimum of 50 published reviews and product identifiers as requirements.
7. Emplifi
Provides product review management and a Google Shopping reviews feed for eligible Ratings & Reviews clients. Worth evaluating for larger businesses with broader customer experience needs.
| Destination | Platforms to investigate |
|---|---|
| Google Shopping product listings | Yotpo, Judge.me, REVIEWS.io, Okendo, PowerReviews |
| Walmart product pages | Yotpo, Bazaarvoice and its retail partners |
| Target product pages | Yotpo through its supported syndication integration |
| Multiple major retail partner sites |
These are supported use cases, not guarantees that every review will appear on every destination. Retailers and Google apply their own eligibility, product-matching and moderation rules.
Google's Product Ratings program generally requires at least 50 reviews across your products, accurate product identifiers, and an approved review feed. Even after meeting the requirements, display is not guaranteed.
One question will help me narrow this down: Where specifically do you want your store's reviews to appear?
1. Target destination
Google Shopping product listings
Retailer product pages (Walmart, Target, etc.)
Amazon product listings
Multiple external channels
2. Ecommerce platform
