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 Booking.com on Ecwid?

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

Shows What Booking.com's Widget Won't

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

No Booking.com API Key Required

Works with any public Booking.com hotel page. No developer application, no API quotas, no hotel-account login required — just your booking.com/hotel/your-hotel URL.

How Do I Install BlooTrue Booking.com on Ecwid?

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

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.

Add a Code Element

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

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 Booking.com reviews are now live on the standalone Ecwid Instant Site.

Reviews auto-sync from Booking.com every 24 hours.

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.

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

BlooTrue's Booking.com Review Widget for Ecwid is a free, app-free embed that displays your Booking.com reviews on any Ecwid (Ecwid by Lightspeed) site. Booking.com'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 booking.com. BlooTrue fills that gap by pulling reviews from any public Booking.com hotel page and turning them into a paste-ready Ecwid embed. Every Booking.com review comes from a verified guest — someone who booked through Booking.com and honored the booking — so there are no drive-by reviews from people who never ate at your hotel. Ratings are native 1–5 stars; the widget header shows your real Booking.com 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 Booking.com API key, no developer application, no hotel-account login required.

Why doesn't Booking.com's own widget show reviews?

Booking.com's official widget is built for one job: booking tables. It embeds a booking form, not your reviews — the verified-guest feedback stays on Booking.com's own directory. Booking.com does not publish a review-display embed the way Google publishes Place Cards. Third-party widgets are the standard way hotels on Ecwid surface their Booking.com reviews — BlooTrue is the free option in that category, for boutique hotels, boutique inns, guesthouses, resorts, and hotel groups alike.

About Booking.com reviews in this widget

For Booking.com the widget shows the guest reviews from your property page at booking.com/hotel. The number at the top is your Booking.com review score on its 10-point scale, with the review count, both taken from the page rather than the cards. Only a guest who completed a stay booked through Booking.com can leave a review, and Booking.com invites them after checkout, so every card ties to a real stay. It is easy to confuse the star class next to a property name on Booking.com, a hotel category, with a review rating; the widget shows the guest score.

Frequently Asked Questions

My Booking.com score is 8.7, does the widget show that or convert it to stars?

The header carries the score as Booking.com reports it on its 10-point scale, so an 8.7 stays an 8.7, along with the review count from your property page. The widget does not average the reviews on your site to make its own number. Each card keeps the score the guest gave after their stay.

Can someone who never stayed at my hotel post a Booking.com review that ends up on my website?

No. Booking.com only invites a review once a stay booked through Booking.com is completed, so a person who never checked in has no way to submit one, and the widget takes only what is on your booking.com/hotel page. Your widget therefore holds reviews from completed stays and nothing else.

Booking.com already gives me a widget for my website, why would I need another one?

Because Booking.com's widget takes bookings and shows none of your guest reviews; Booking.com keeps those on its own marketplace. The BlooTrue embed is built from your property page URL and shows the guest reviews with your review score out of 10 in the header. The free plan adds a small BlooTrue badge; paid plans refresh daily and drop it.

Is the BlooTrue Booking.com 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 Booking.com already have an official widget for websites?

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

Do I need a Booking.com API key or developer access?

No. BlooTrue works with any public Booking.com hotel page — no API key, no developer application, no hotel-account login required. Just paste your full hotel URL (https://www.booking.com/hotel/your-hotel) 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 (myhotel.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.
