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 Lightspeed eCom?

The free way to put Booking.com reviews on a Lightspeed eCom site — the official widget only takes bookings, and Lightspeed has no Booking.com review app.

Shows Reviews the Official Widget Never Will

Booking.com's own website widget only books tables — it never displays your reviews. BlooTrue is the free, paste-and-go complement — it pulls reviews from your public Booking.com hotel page automatically.

Native Custom Code Install

Pure HTML embed pasted into Design → Custom Code (Body tab). No Lightspeed App Store install, no permission scopes, no recurring app fee.

For Lightspeed eCom, Not Hotel POS

This integration targets the e-commerce storefront — the website your guests visit. Lightspeed Restaurant (the POS for the dining room) is a separate product.

Verified-Guest Trust, No API Key

Every Booking.com review comes from a guest who booked and honored a booking — no drive-by reviews. BlooTrue works with any public Booking.com hotel page: no API key, no partner integration, no account connection required.

How Do I Install BlooTrue Booking.com on Lightspeed eCom?

Takes less than a minute. Install via Design → Custom Code (sitewide) or the Pages editor (per-page).

Open Custom Code in the Lightspeed eCom Back Office

Log into your Lightspeed eCom back office. In the left navigation, click Design → Custom Code.

Note: This is the Lightspeed eCom back office — the e-commerce storefront. If you have Lightspeed Restaurant (POS) instead, the menu structure is different and this integration doesn't apply.

Paste in the Body Tab (Sitewide)

Inside Custom Code you'll see two tabs: Body and Header. Paste the BlooTrue Booking.com embed code into the Body tab text area.

Body vs Header: Body is the safe default. Header is for code that must execute before the page renders (analytics tags, font loaders) — placing BlooTrue there works but offers no benefit.

Click Save.

Per-Page Placement (Optional)

For placement on a specific page (About, Reviews, Private Events), open Content → Pages in the back office, click the page to edit, and click the Source button (looks like </>) in the rich-text editor toolbar.

Paste the embed code into the HTML view. Click Source again to confirm it renders, and save.

Save and Preview

Click Save. Booking.com reviews appear on your Lightspeed eCom site instantly.

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

Booking.com Review Widget for Lightspeed eCom — Free, Shows What the Official Widget Won't

BlooTrue's Booking.com Review Widget for Lightspeed eCom is a free, app-free embed that displays your Booking.com reviews on any Lightspeed eCom site. There's a double gap to bridge: Booking.com's official website widget only takes bookings — it never displays your reviews — and the Lightspeed App Store does not list a dedicated Booking.com review app for the eCom platform. BlooTrue fills both gaps with a pure HTML embed pasted via Design → Custom Code in the Lightspeed eCom back office. This is for Lightspeed eCom — the e-commerce storefront (formerly Lightspeed Web Store / Lightspeed Online) — not Lightspeed Restaurant POS, which is a separate product with a separate integration surface. Booking.com reviews carry unusual weight as social proof because every one comes from a verified guest — someone who booked through Booking.com and honored the booking — so a boutique hotel, boutique inn, guesthouse, resort, or hotel group can show real 1–5 star ratings with the widget header displaying the genuine Booking.com average, no conversion. 100+ widget styles, light and dark themes, free custom color picker, and on paid plans schema.org Review + AggregateRating JSON-LD for star-rating eligibility in Google search results.

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

Booking.com's first-party widget is built to do one thing: book tables. It keeps the reviews themselves on booking.com, where they drive bookings through the marketplace. Booking.com does not publish a paste-ready review embed the way Google publishes Place Cards. Third-party widgets are the standard way Lightspeed eCom sites surface their Booking.com reviews on their own pages — BlooTrue is the free option in that category.

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 Lightspeed eCom?

Yes. BlooTrue is completely free for Lightspeed eCom. No Lightspeed App Store install, no recurring app fee, unlimited widget views. The free plan shows your Booking.com reviews with BlooTrue branding in the footer.

Does this work on Lightspeed Restaurant (POS)?

This page covers Lightspeed eCom — the e-commerce storefront. Lightspeed Restaurant POS is a separate product for taking orders in the dining room. For the website your guests visit, this page is the right place. For POS receipt or transactional-email surfacing, that's a separate integration entirely.

Doesn't Booking.com already offer a website widget for Lightspeed?

Booking.com's official website widget only takes bookings — it never displays your reviews. The Lightspeed App Store does not list a dedicated Booking.com review app either. BlooTrue fills both gaps with a free review embed pasted via Design → Custom Code.

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

No. BlooTrue works with any public Booking.com hotel page — no Booking.com API key, no partner integration, no account-level connection required.

Where is Custom Code in the new Lightspeed UI?

Custom Code lives under Design in the Lightspeed eCom back office. Inside Custom Code there are two tabs: Body and Header. Paste the BlooTrue embed in the Body tab.

Should I use the Body tab or the Header tab?

Body. The widget loads asynchronously and doesn't need to block initial render. Header is reserved for code that must execute before the page paints — analytics scripts, font preconnects.

Will the widget slow down my Lightspeed eCom site?

No. The widget loads asynchronously after your page content. The script is under 20KB and reviews are served from a CDN cache. Typical impact on Largest Contentful Paint is under 50ms — well within Core Web Vitals thresholds.
