Review Carousel
The Review Carousel rotates through your top and most recent reviews from across the store — ideal for the homepage, where it builds trust before shoppers reach a product page. Each review links to the product it's about, turning social proof into a path to purchase.
“Amazing quality!”
“My favourite purchase”
“Great product overall”
How to add it
The carousel is a block you place inside a section, so you can position it wherever it fits.
- In your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Themes and click Customize.
- Open the template where you want it — the homepage is the most common choice.
- Select a section, click Add block, and choose Review Carousel.
- Position it — below the hero banner or above the footer both work well — then click Save.
What shoppers see
A rotating set of review cards, each showing the star rating, a snippet of the review, the reviewer's name, and — when photos are enabled — a review photo. Clicking a card takes the shopper to that review's product page.
Featuring your best reviews
You control which reviews get the spotlight. In PerkStack > Reviews > Moderation, mark strong reviews as Featured and the carousel will prioritize them, so your best feedback leads.
