How Trustpilot helps Shopify merchants stand out in AI-powered commerce
Monday, June 29, 2026

AI is changing how people discover brands. Trustpilot helps Shopify merchants build the trusted customer feedback that powers visibility and conversion across AI engines.
With AI-driven search and shopping assistants now shaping purchase decisions, a steady stream of authentic customer feedback is your most powerful asset. As Trustpilot is the most-cited review platform across leading AI engines, Shopify merchants can leverage customer feedback to strengthen the trust signals, credibility, and reputation data that increasingly influence AI-powered discovery and decision-making. Even for small merchants, a little can go a long way, with a minimal Trustpilot presence driving AI citations up to an average of 53%.
Key Product Partner status
Trustpilot has officially become a Key Product Partner for reviews with Shopify. This deeper relationship means closer collaboration between our platforms, ensuring you always have access to the absolute best tools to build trust, protect your reputation, and grow your business within the Shopify ecosystem. Trustpilot’s upgraded app in the Shopify App Store makes this easier than ever.
Through our enhanced Trustpilot app, you can more seamlessly connect your store directly with Trustpilot to collect, manage, and showcase reviews.
By automating review invitations to send at key moments throughout the customer journey, you continuously generate fresh customer feedback that builds buyer confidence and strengthens your visibility across AI-powered discovery. These fresh, third-party reviews feed AI search engines the structured, high-integrity reputation data they seek to confidently surface and recommend your brand to motivated shoppers.
“Trust has become one of the defining signals people rely on when deciding which business, service or retailer to choose. This partnership brings Trustpilot closer to where purchase decisions are being made every day, making it easier for merchants to build credibility through open customer feedback, while helping shoppers see trusted reviews more naturally within the Shopify experience.”
— Adrian Blair, CEO of Trustpilot
