Capterra reviews in a Lightspeed eCom shop

Capterra reviews come from people who use software at work, so on a Lightspeed shop they fit wherever the shop sells to businesses. Lightspeed's theme editor decides whether the reviews appear across the storefront or on one page, and the homepage trust band is built for exactly this kind of proof.

Does the Lightspeed trust band suit Capterra reviews?

Yes, when the shop's main product is software. The band under the USP icons is where the storefront states its promises, such as fast licence delivery or real support, and Capterra reviews from users back those promises up.

That band lives in a shared theme section, so check where else the section appears before you save. Paste into the code view of the element, since a visual field turns the script into visible text.

Do new Capterra reviews need a theme republish on Lightspeed?

No. The code in the theme stays the same after you save it once. New Capterra reviews depend on the BlooTrue plan: paid plans add them daily, while a free widget stays with the set it captured at creation.

The header follows the same rule. It shows the rating and review count Capterra publishes for your listing, so on a paid plan the trust band stays in line with what a buyer finds if they look you up on Capterra.

SEO + AI schema · paid plans

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 Capterra 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

How to Add Capterra Reviews to Lightspeed

Connect your Capterra profile in BlooTrue, pick a style, then paste one embed code into the theme HTML element on Lightspeed and publish.

  1. 1

    In Lightspeed eCom, open the theme editor for your storefront.

  2. 2

    Add a custom HTML element (or edit the template region) where reviews should appear.

  3. 3

    Paste the BlooTrue embed code.

  4. 4

    Save/publish the theme — the widget renders on the shop.

On templated regions, paste into the code view — visual fields escape script tags.

Where the Code Goes on Lightspeed

In Lightspeed eCom the embed code goes into a custom HTML element in the theme editor, or into a template region if your theme exposes one.

Templated regions use visual fields that escape script tags, so paste into the code view. The theme editor does not run the script on its canvas; confirm the reviews on the shop after you save or publish the theme. The element takes the width of its section. Theme edits apply storefront-wide, so an element in a shared section shows on every page, while a page's Source view limits it to that page.

If the widget does not show on Lightspeed

  • If the shop shows the snippet as text, the visual field escaped it; paste into the code view of the element or template region.
  • If the theme editor shows nothing, that is expected; save or publish the theme and open the shop to see the reviews.
  • If the widget shows on every page but you want one page, paste it in that page's Source view instead of the theme.

Capterra Review Widget for Lightspeed — Free, No Plugin

Embed Capterra reviews on any Lightspeed page with a single copy-paste embed code. Capterra software reviews, embedded where buyers compare and decide. Installs via the theme HTML element.

Where Capterra reviews help most on Lightspeed

Software companies rarely run on Lightspeed, but some do, to sell licences, templates, plugins, hardware that ships with software, or add-ons.

The buyer is then a business, and Capterra reviews from users of your product are the proof that buyer recognises. Put the widget on the product page for the licence or plan, under the description and above the price options. A compact badge on the home page covers the rest. Leave it off physical merchandise: Capterra reviews describe the software, and beside a T-shirt or a mug they read as unrelated, which undercuts the reviews rather than the mug.

About Capterra reviews in this widget

The Capterra widget brings the reviews from your Capterra product listing to your pages, with the rating out of 5 and review count Capterra publishes in the header. Software buyers use Capterra, a Gartner company, to build shortlists, so put the widget on the pages where they compare you. Capterra checks each review before publishing it. What site owners get wrong is reading the header as an average of the reviews on the page. It is Capterra's own figure and counts every review, including lower-rated ones a free widget leaves out.

Capterra Widget on Lightspeed — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue Capterra review widget free for Lightspeed?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed Capterra reviews on Lightspeed. No plugin, no recurring fee, unlimited views. The free plan shows your reviews with BlooTrue branding in the footer; paid plans remove the branding.
How do I install the widget on Lightspeed?
In Lightspeed eCom, open the theme editor for your storefront. Add a custom HTML element (or edit the template region) where reviews should appear. Paste the BlooTrue embed code. Save/publish the theme — the widget renders on the shop.
Anything specific to Lightspeed worth knowing before I embed?
On templated regions, paste into the code view — visual fields escape script tags.
Where should I place Capterra reviews on Lightspeed for the biggest lift?
The homepage trust band under the USP icons.
Do the reviews stay up to date automatically?
Paid plans auto-sync your Capterra reviews daily, so the widget always shows your latest 5-star reviews without touching Lightspeed again. The free plan shows the reviews imported at setup.
What do I paste into the builder to pull my Capterra reviews?
The address of your product listing on Capterra, which takes the form capterra.com/p/ followed by a number and your product name. The builder reads the rating, review count and reviews from that listing. Pick a layout, copy the one-line embed and paste it into your comparison page; the whole thing takes about a minute.
I already display a Capterra badge, why would I add a widget?
Because the badge is an image. It shows no review content, none of the words reviewers wrote about your software, and no count of how many wrote them. The widget lists the reviews from your Capterra listing, so a buyer on your comparison page reads what other buyers said without leaving for Capterra.
Will my Capterra rating appear as stars under my page in Google search results?
No. Google's review-snippet rules exclude reviews a business shows about itself through an embedded widget. Paid plans still add schema.org Review and AggregateRating markup as JSON-LD carrying your Capterra rating and review count, which search engines and AI assistants can read when the embed renders inline on your page; if the embed sits in a sandboxed iframe, they never see it.
