The Review Widget will be installed at the bottom of your product pages. To disable it, go to Settings > Review Widget > Installation. To activate other widgets, visit Settings > Other Widgets in the Judge.me app admin and select your preferred widgets.

4. Import your existing reviews
Already have reviews on other platforms? You can import your existing reviews using a CSV file. Follow these steps:
Begin by creating a CSV file of your reviews using our guide.
Ensure you have the Squarespace product handles to match reviews with the corresponding products (the product handle is the last part of your product URL, e.g., /shop/p/product-a).
With your CSV file ready, go to Judge.me > Import/Export > From Customers Directly (with import wizard), and upload your CSV file. For detailed import guidelines, check here.

Collect reviews directly through the review form in your Review Widget and Floating Reviews Tab.
Send review request emails to verified buyers. These requests are automatically scheduled when you "mark fulfilled" an order in Commerce > Orders in your Squarespace store admin. Customize request timings and templates (four default email templates available on the Free plan, with a flexible drag-and-drop email editor on the Awesome plan).
