Review schema markup, on paid plans

Paid widgets add schema.org Review and AggregateRating JSON-LD to the page they sit on, so search engines and AI answer engines can read your Google reviews as structured data. Google does not show review stars for reviews a business shows about itself, so the gain is readability, not stars. The free plan shows the reviews without the schema. See how the schema works

Why Use BlooTrue for Airbnb on Ecwid?

The free way to put Airbnb reviews on your Ecwid (by Lightspeed) site — Airbnb's own widget only takes bookings.

Shows What Airbnb's Widget Won't

Airbnb's official widget embeds a booking form — it never displays your reviews or star rating. BlooTrue is the free, paste-and-go complement — it pulls reviews from your public Airbnb listing page automatically.

Dual-Mode Install

Standalone Ecwid Instant Site? Use the storefront editor's Code element. Ecwid embedded inside Wix / WordPress / Squarespace? Paste on the host page instead.

Verified Guests, Native Stars

Every Airbnb review comes from a guest who honored a real airbnb — no drive-by reviews. Ratings are native 1–5 stars, and the widget header shows your real Airbnb average with no conversion.

No Airbnb API Key Required

Works with any public Airbnb listing page. No developer application, no API quotas, no rental-account login required — just your airbnb.com/rooms/12345678 URL.

How Do I Install BlooTrue Airbnb on Ecwid?

Less than a minute. Works for both standalone Instant Sites and embedded-Ecwid setups.

1

Open the Ecwid Storefront Editor

In your Ecwid (Ecwid by Lightspeed) control panel, open Sales Channels → Storefront, then click Edit Site to launch the storefront editor.

This is the path for a standalone Ecwid Instant Site. If your Ecwid store is embedded inside another host site, skip to step 4.

2

Add a Code Element

On the page where you want Airbnb reviews to appear, click + Add Element, scroll to the Code element, and drop it into the layout.

3

Paste in the HTML Field

Click the placed Code element, paste the BlooTrue embed code into the HTML field, and click outside the field to save.

Click Publish. Your Airbnb reviews are now live on the standalone Ecwid Instant Site.

Reviews auto-sync from Airbnb every 24 hours.

4

Embedded Ecwid: Paste on the Host Page Instead

Most Ecwid merchants run embedded mode — Ecwid is the shopping cart component inside a Wix, WordPress, Squarespace, or plain HTML host site. Paste the BlooTrue embed on the host page's HTML widget instead, alongside the Ecwid storefront component.

  • Wix: drop a Custom Code or HTML iframe element next to the Ecwid Store component, paste, save, publish.
  • WordPress: use a Custom HTML block on the page that holds the Ecwid embed, paste, update.
  • Squarespace: add a Code Block to the page next to the Ecwid embed, paste, save.
  • Plain HTML site: paste the embed in the page's HTML directly.

The host page is the URL Google indexes, so SEO rich snippets attach to your real domain.

Airbnb Review Widget for Ecwid (by Lightspeed) — Free, Shows the Reviews Airbnb's Widget Can't

BlooTrue's Airbnb Review Widget for Ecwid is a free, app-free embed that displays your Airbnb reviews on any Ecwid (Ecwid by Lightspeed) site. Airbnb's official website widget only takes bookings — it never shows your reviews or your star rating, so the verified-guest praise you earned stays locked on airbnb.com. BlooTrue fills that gap by pulling reviews from any public Airbnb listing page and turning them into a paste-ready Ecwid embed. Every Airbnb review comes from a verified guest — someone who booked through Airbnb and honored the airbnb — so there are no drive-by reviews from people who never ate at your rental. Ratings are native 1–5 stars; the widget header shows your real Airbnb average with no conversion. Ecwid is unusual compared to BigCommerce or Shopify: it's primarily designed to be embedded inside other websites (Wix, WordPress, Squarespace, Weebly, plain HTML) rather than be a standalone store. So the install path branches. For a standalone Ecwid Instant Site (Ecwid-hosted site with its own URL), paste the BlooTrue embed via the storefront editor's Code element. For embedded-Ecwid setups (the more common path), paste the embed on the host page's HTML widget instead — outside the Ecwid iframe — because the iframe is sandboxed and the reviews look better surrounding the Ecwid store. Ecwid was acquired by Lightspeed in 2021; the product is now Ecwid by Lightspeed but the dashboard still says Ecwid in most places. No Airbnb API key, no developer application, no rental-account login required.

Why doesn't Airbnb's own widget show reviews?

Airbnb's official widget is built for one job: airbnb tables. It embeds a booking form, not your reviews — the verified-guest feedback stays on Airbnb's own directory. Airbnb does not publish a review-display embed the way Google publishes Place Cards. Third-party widgets are the standard way rentals on Ecwid surface their Airbnb reviews — BlooTrue is the free option in that category, for entire homes, cabins, apartments, villas, and property managers alike.

About Airbnb reviews in this widget

The Airbnb widget covers one listing, the airbnb.com/rooms page with the listing number, and shows its guest reviews. Above the cards sits the listing's rating and review count exactly as Airbnb displays them, so a 4.92 stays a 4.92 instead of a card average. Airbnb only lets a guest review after a completed stay booked on Airbnb, with 14 days from checkout to write it, so every card is from a real stay. Airbnb has no first-party review embed, and the builder needs the listing URL, not the host profile link that hosts tend to paste in.

Frequently Asked Questions

I manage six Airbnb listings, can one widget cover all of them?

No. Each listing has its own airbnb.com/rooms page with its own reviews and its own rating, and the builder imports one listing per widget. On the free plan you get one widget, so one listing; paid plans remove the one-widget limit and refresh every listing's widget from Airbnb daily.

Why does my Airbnb widget say 4.92 when most of the cards show five stars?

Because the header mirrors the rating Airbnb publishes for the listing, to two decimals, together with its review count, and does no arithmetic of its own on the cards. Free widgets show only 4-star-and-up reviews as cards, so a computed average would drift from Airbnb's figure; keeping Airbnb's number avoids that.

A guest checked out yesterday, when will their Airbnb review show on my site?

Airbnb gives the guest 14 days after checkout to write the review, and it goes live on the listing once both sides have reviewed or the window closes. A paid plan refreshes the widget daily and picks it up next day; a free widget stays as it was on publish day, so yesterday's guest waits until you upgrade.

Is the BlooTrue Airbnb widget free for Ecwid?

Yes. BlooTrue is completely free for Ecwid (by Lightspeed). No app marketplace install, no recurring app fee, unlimited widget views, no credit card. Works on every Ecwid plan, including the free tier.

Doesn't Airbnb already have an official widget for websites?

Yes — but it only takes bookings. Airbnb's official website widget is a booking form; it never displays your reviews or your star rating. Your verified-guest reviews stay locked on airbnb.com. BlooTrue fills that gap.

Do I need an Airbnb API key or developer access?

No. BlooTrue works with any public Airbnb listing page — no API key, no developer application, no rental-account login required. Just paste your full rental URL (https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/12345678) into the BlooTrue builder.

My Ecwid store is embedded in Wix (or WordPress / Squarespace) — where do I paste the embed code?

Paste it on the host site, not inside Ecwid. Ecwid's storefront iframe is sandboxed and your reviews look better placed alongside your Ecwid store on the host page. In Wix, drop a Custom Code element. In WordPress, use a Custom HTML block. In Squarespace, use a Code Block.

Standalone Ecwid Instant Site vs embedded Ecwid — which path applies to me?

If your site URL is on an Ecwid-hosted domain (myrental.company.site or a custom domain pointed at Ecwid Instant Site), use the storefront editor's Code element flow. If your Ecwid store is embedded inside another host site, paste the BlooTrue embed on the host page instead.

Does this work with Ecwid by Lightspeed (the rebranded version)?

Yes. Ecwid was acquired by Lightspeed in 2021 and the product is now officially "Ecwid by Lightspeed", but the dashboard still says Ecwid in most places and the install paths are unchanged.

Will the widget slow down my Ecwid site?

No. The widget loads asynchronously after page content, so it never blocks rendering. The script is under 20KB and reviews are served from a CDN cache. Typical impact on Largest Contentful Paint is under 50ms.
