Why Use BlooTrue for BBB on Weebly?

The only free way to put BBB reviews on your Weebly site — BBB itself doesn't offer an embed.

Fills BBB's Missing Embed

BBB doesn't publish an official embed widget for merchants. BlooTrue is the free, paste-and-go alternative — pulls reviews from your public BBB business profile automatically.

No Weebly App Center Install

Pure HTML embed. No marketplace install, no permission scopes, no recurring app fee. Works on every plan from Free to Business Plus.

Works on the Free Weebly Plan

The Embed Code element ships on every Weebly plan, including the free weebly.com subdomain tier. Same install steps regardless of plan.

No BBB API Key Required

Works with any public BBB business profile. No BBB Fusion application, no API quotas, no business-level claim required.

What makes a BBB widget different from a Google review widget?

BBB customer reviews are a native 1–5 star system. Knowing how they differ from BBB's A+-to-F letter rating, how profile setup works, and how reviews are moderated avoids surprises after you embed.

BBB customer reviews vs the A+-to-F “BBB rating”

BBB has two separate signals, and this widget shows only one of them. The first is the 1–5 star customer reviews — written by your customers about their experience — with an overall customer-review average; that's what BlooTrue displays. The second is the A+-to-F letter “BBB rating”, which is BBB's own grade for how a business interacts with BBB (complaint history, transparency, time in business, accreditation status) — the widget does not show this letter rating or the accreditation seal. BlooTrue renders each customer review exactly as stars: a 5-star review shows 5 stars, a 3-star review shows 3, and the header shows your real BBB customer-review average and count. The header rating always comes from BBB's own published customer-review aggregate, never from averaging the individual cards on screen.

Where the reviews come from and how often they refresh

BlooTrue fetches the publicly-visible customer reviews from your BBB business profile on a server-side schedule — roughly once every 24 hours on paid plans — and caches the result. Your site never calls BBB directly, so visitor traffic to your page doesn't depend on BBB being reachable, and the widget loads instantly from cache. Only reviews that are public on your profile are included. Each review keeps its reviewer name, star rating, and text, and links back to your BBB business profile.

Accreditation, profile setup, and what shows up in the widget

You do not need to be a BBB Accredited Business to use this widget — it works with any public BBB business profile, accredited or not. Reviews only appear if your profile is public and has customer reviews. If your profile is brand new or has zero reviews, there's nothing for the widget to import yet — it will populate as soon as your first public customer review lands. Once your profile has reviews, the widget shows whatever is public: no more, no less. If a review disappears from your widget after a sync, it almost always means the customer deleted it or BBB removed it — the widget simply follows your profile's public state.

Moderation, review guidelines, and attribution

BBB moderates customer reviews under its review guidelines and removes spam, fraudulent submissions, and content that violates its policies. Because BlooTrue reads only your profile's public reviews, the widget automatically reflects those removals on the next sync — you never display content BBB has already taken down. Every card keeps the BBB mark and the reviewer's name, and clicking a review links back to your BBB business profile, so attribution stays intact. BlooTrue never fabricates a rating: an empty star-only review (a star rating with no written text) is still shown as a real review, and the header number is always BBB's own customer-review aggregate.

BBB tips for Weebly

  • Weebly's Embed Code element renders the BBB widget without conflicting with Weebly's built-in slide-in form prompts.
  • For multi-language Weebly sites, embed a separate BBB widget per language version since BBB reviews may differ by region.
  • The BBB widget container respects Weebly's mobile breakpoints — no layout shift on mobile devices.

How Do I Install BlooTrue BBB on Weebly?

Takes less than a minute. No coding, no App Center install, no BBB API key. This guide is for the classic Weebly editor (not Square Online).

1

Open Your Weebly Site Editor

Open your Weebly site editor and navigate to the page where you want BBB reviews to appear (homepage, About, Reviews, Testimonials — any page).

Works in the classic Weebly drag-and-drop editor. Square Online users should follow Square Online's separate install path.

2

Drag the Embed Code Element

From the left sidebar (the Build panel listing Title, Text, Image, Gallery, Button, Embed Code, etc.), drag the Embed Code element onto the page where you want the BBB reviews to appear. The element ships on every Weebly plan including the free tier.

3

Click Edit Custom HTML and Paste

Click on the placed Embed Code element, then click Edit Custom HTML in the small popup that appears. Paste the BlooTrue BBB embed code into the HTML editor. The widget is a single HTML snippet — no Weebly App Center install, no theme file edits, no BBB API key required.

4

Save and Publish

Click outside the Embed Code element to save the change, then click the Publish button in the top right of the Weebly editor. Your BBB reviews are now live on your Weebly site.

Reviews auto-sync from BBB every 24 hours.

BBB Review Widget for Weebly — Free, Fills BBB's Embed Gap

BlooTrue's BBB Review Widget for Weebly is a free embed that displays your BBB reviews on any Weebly site via the built-in Embed Code element. BBB does not provide an official embed widget for merchants — its Fusion API is gated for partner apps — so the only path to put BBB reviews on a Weebly site is a third-party widget. BlooTrue fills that gap for free, pulling reviews from any public BBB business page and turning them into a paste-ready Weebly snippet. Works on every Weebly plan including the free weebly.com subdomain plan, and on the paid Connect, Pro, Business, and Business Plus tiers. The install is pure drag-and-drop in the classic Weebly editor — drag the Embed Code element, click Edit Custom HTML, paste, and publish. No Weebly App Center install, no per-month fee, no BBB API key required. This page is specifically for the classic Weebly editor; Square Online (the rebranded ecommerce-first product Square ships) is a different product. On paid plans, schema.org Review + AggregateRating JSON-LD is added to the page, which makes it eligible for star ratings in Google search results where the embed runs inline rather than inside an iframe.

Why doesn't BBB have an official embed?

BBB's Fusion API is positioned as a partner-channel product (used by sites like Apple Maps and Trivago) rather than as a merchant self-service product. BBB does not publish a paste-ready embed widget the way Google publishes Place Cards. Third-party widgets are the standard way Weebly site owners surface their BBB reviews on their own site — BlooTrue is the free option in that category.

About BBB reviews in this widget

A BBB widget carries the customer reviews posted on your BBB business profile, each with the 1 to 5 stars the customer gave. The figure in the header is the profile's customer-review star average and how many reviews BBB lists, never the letter grade: the A+ to F rating is BBB's own grade for how your business deals with BBB, complaints included, and stays separate from what customers write. Accreditation is not required. Some owners paste the BBB Accredited Business seal expecting reviews, but the seal only displays the letter grade and accreditation status.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can my A+ BBB rating be the number in the widget header?

No. The header shows the star average of your BBB customer reviews, pulled from your public profile, together with the review count. The A+ to F letter grade is BBB's own assessment of how you interact with BBB and stays separate from customer reviews, so a profile can hold an A+ alongside a 3-star average.

I am not BBB accredited, can I still put my BBB reviews on my site?

Yes. Accreditation is a separate BBB status and the builder does not check for it; it reads any public BBB business profile from its URL, accredited or not. The BBB Accredited Business seal is a different thing again: it displays your letter grade and accreditation status, not the customer review cards you want on the page.

Do BBB complaints show up in the review widget?

No. BBB keeps complaints and customer reviews as separate records on your profile, and the widget imports only the 1 to 5 star customer reviews. Complaints feed into the letter grade, which the widget does not show. A free widget shows the customer reviews as of the day you built it; paid plans re-check your profile daily.

Is the BlooTrue BBB widget free for Weebly?

Yes. BlooTrue is completely free for Weebly. No App Center install, no marketplace fee, unlimited widget views, no credit card. The free plan shows your BBB reviews with BlooTrue branding in the footer.

Does this work on the free Weebly plan?

Yes. BlooTrue works on every Weebly plan, including the free plan that uses a weebly.com subdomain. The Embed Code element ships on every tier — Free, Connect, Pro, Business, and Business Plus.

Does BBB offer its own embed widget for Weebly?

No. BBB does not provide an official embed widget for businesses to display their reviews on a Weebly site. BBB's Fusion API is gated and primarily intended for partner apps, not merchant self-embeds. The only practical path to put BBB reviews on a Weebly site is a third-party widget — BlooTrue is the free option in that category.

Do I need a BBB API key or BBB Fusion access?

No. BlooTrue works with any public BBB business profile — no BBB API key, no BBB Fusion application, no business-level claim required. Just paste your bbb.org/./profile/your-business-slug URL into the BlooTrue builder.

Do I need to install an app from the Weebly App Center?

No. BlooTrue is not a Weebly App Center listing — it's a pure HTML embed. Drag the built-in Embed Code element onto your page from the left sidebar, click Edit Custom HTML, and paste. There is no App Center install, no recurring app fee, no permission scopes.

What about Square Online — does this page apply?

This page is specifically for the classic Weebly editor (the drag-and-drop builder still hosted on weebly.com). Square Online — the rebranded ecommerce-first product Square ships after acquiring Weebly in 2018 — is a different product with a different editor. The widget itself works in both, but the install steps on this page describe the classic Weebly editor.

Where exactly should I paste the embed code on Weebly?

In the Weebly site editor, navigate to the page. From the left sidebar (the Build panel listing Title, Text, Image, Gallery, Button, Embed Code, etc.), drag the Embed Code element onto the page. Click the placed element, click Edit Custom HTML in the popup, and paste the snippet. Click outside to save, then click Publish in the top right.
