What this feature does

  • Fetches existing reviews from your connected review app
  • Matches reviews to the correct product or store
  • Displays relevant reviews on the Checkout page using Shopify Checkout Extensions
  • Works without modifying your checkout logic or payment flow

How reviews are matched

Blockify uses the following priority logic:

  • Product-level reviews: Reviews linked to the products currently in the checkout
  • Store-level reviews: Used when a product has insufficient or no reviews

This ensures that shoppers see relevant and trustworthy social proof at checkout.
