Facebook Review Widget for Square Online — Free, Made for Restaurants and Salons

BlooTrue's Facebook Review Widget for Square Online is a free embed that displays your Facebook reviews on any Square Online site. This may be the highest-affinity pairing in our catalog: Square Online is the free site builder bundled with Square POS — the platform restaurants, salons, barbershops, and local services build on — and those are exactly the categories where Facebook coverage is strongest and where diners and clients check Facebook before choosing. Yet there's a double gap: Facebook does not publish an official embed widget for merchants (its Fusion API is gated for partner apps like Apple Maps and Trivago), and Square's App Marketplace has no Facebook review-display app. BlooTrue fills both gaps with a pure HTML embed pasted into Square Online's standard Custom code section: open Square dashboard → Online → Website → Edit site, click + Add section, choose Custom code under More, paste, Publish. Custom code sections are supported on the Square Online free plan on most layouts. 100+ widget styles, light and dark themes, free custom color picker, and schema.org Review + AggregateRating JSON-LD injected automatically.

How to embed Facebook reviews on Square Online in 60 seconds

  1. Paste your Facebook Page URL (facebook.com/yourpage-slug) into the configurator above.
  2. Pick a widget style and customize colors, theme, and layout.
  3. Click Copy Code to get the one-line HTML embed.
  4. In your Square dashboard: Online → Website → Edit site.
  5. Click + Add sectionMore Custom code, and paste the embed.
  6. Click Publish — reviews are live immediately.

Why Facebook + Square Online is the natural pairing

Square Online powers the websites of restaurants, cafes, salons, and local service businesses — Facebook's core categories. Diners check Facebook before choosing where to eat; clients check Facebook before booking a chair. Embedding your Facebook reviews next to your menu, online-ordering button, or booking link keeps that proof on YOUR site at the moment of decision — no detour to facebook.com where competitors are one tap away — and it reinforces the Square business profile presence your regulars already know.

Why doesn't Facebook have an official embed?

Facebook'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. Facebook does not publish a paste-ready embed widget the way Google publishes Place Cards, and Square's App Marketplace has no Facebook display app. Third-party widgets like BlooTrue are the canonical way to surface Facebook reviews on a Square Online site.

SEO + AI schema · paid plans

Get golden stars in Google search results

On paid plans, every BlooTrue widget injects schema.org Review + AggregateRating JSON-LD straight into your page — so Google and AI answer engines can read your ratings and reviews as structured data, and your pages become eligible for star-rating rich snippets. (Google treats a business's own reviews on its own site as "self-serving" and doesn't guarantee stars for them — product/service reviews are the most reliably eligible; either way your reviews become machine-readable for search and AI.)

(127)
This is what your customers see when they Google you — powered by BlooTrue's JSON-LD.
  • Zero config — it just works

    The moment you embed a BlooTrue widget, JSON-LD markup is injected automatically. No extra tags, no developer time.

  • Google Rich Results valid

    Every field follows Google's current structured-data guidelines — LocalBusiness, AggregateRating, and Review — so it passes the Rich Results Test out of the box.

  • Standalone schema endpoint Paid plans

    For star ratings to appear under your parent page's blue link in Google, search engines need the schema on the parent page itself — iframe-embedded schema is not propagated to the host page. Paid plans expose a JSON-LD endpoint per widget that you drop into your<head>for SERP rich snippets on product, landing, or legacy pages. Schema markup is a paid feature: free-plan widgets display your reviews but don't emit JSON-LD, so free pages aren't eligible for rich snippets.

What gets injected automaticallylive
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@type": "LocalBusiness",
  "name": "Your Business",
  "aggregateRating": {
    "ratingValue": "4.9",
    "reviewCount": "127"
  }
}
</script>

Star-snippet visibility is ultimately decided by Google — valid schema is a prerequisite, not a guarantee. BlooTrue ships the markup; Google decides which queries get stars. For SERP rich snippets to appear under your parent page's link, the schema must be served on the parent page itself — that's what the standalone JSON-LD endpoint (paid plans) is for. Schema markup is a paid feature, so free-plan widgets display your reviews but don't emit JSON-LD. Independent studies find pages with valid review schema see materially higher click-through rates than plain listings.

Why Use BlooTrue for Facebook on Square Online?

Square restaurants and salons live on Facebook — but Facebook has no embed and Square has no Facebook app. BlooTrue is the free path.

Facebook's Core Categories, Square's Core Users

Restaurants, salons, and local services are both Facebook's strongest coverage AND Square Online's main user base. Putting your Facebook stars next to your menu or booking button is the natural move.

Fills Facebook's Missing Embed

Facebook doesn't publish an official embed widget for merchants, and Square's App Marketplace has no Facebook display app. BlooTrue is the free, paste-and-go alternative.

Works on the Free Plan

Square Online supports Custom code sections on the free plan on most layouts. No plan upgrade, no Square App Marketplace install — paste and Publish.

No Facebook API Key Required

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

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

Facebook's recommendation system works differently from star-based platforms like Google. Knowing how recommendations become stars, and how Page moderation works, avoids surprises after you embed.

How BlooTrue turns Facebook recommendations into star ratings

Facebook retired numeric star ratings in 2018. Instead, visitors tap Recommends or Doesn't recommend and write a short comment, and the Page shows a percentage of people who recommend it. BlooTrue normalizes that into the star format your other widgets use: each “Recommends” renders as a 5-star review, each “Doesn't recommend” as 1 star, and the Page's overall recommendation percentage becomes a clean 0–5 star header rating. The result is a Facebook widget that looks and reads exactly like your Google or Yelp widget — no confusing percentages on your site. The header rating always comes from Facebook's own published aggregate, never from averaging the individual cards.

Where the recommendations come from and how often they refresh

BlooTrue fetches the publicly-visible recommendations from your Facebook Page on a server-side schedule — roughly once every 24 hours on paid plans — and caches the result. Your site never calls Facebook directly, so visitor traffic to your page doesn't depend on Facebook being reachable, and the widget loads instantly from cache. Only recommendations that are public on your Page are included; anything set to private or hidden by the Page owner is never pulled. Each recommendation keeps its reviewer name, photo, and comment, and links back to your Facebook Page.

Turning on recommendations and what shows up in the widget

Recommendations only appear if your Page has the Reviews / Recommendations section enabled and public. If your Page is brand new or has recommendations switched off, there's nothing for the widget to import yet — turn the section on in your Page settings and the widget will populate as soon as your first public recommendation lands. Once enabled, the widget shows whatever your Page shows publicly: no more, no less. If a recommendation disappears from your widget after a sync, it almost always means the reviewer deleted it or Facebook removed it — the widget simply follows your Page's public state.

Moderation, Community Standards, and attribution

Facebook moderates recommendations under its Community Standards and removes spam, hate speech, and content that violates its policies. Because BlooTrue reads only your Page's public recommendations, the widget automatically reflects those removals on the next sync — you never display content Facebook has already taken down. Every card keeps the Facebook mark and the reviewer's name, and clicking a review links back to your Facebook Page, so attribution stays intact. BlooTrue never fabricates a rating: an empty “Recommends” with no comment is still shown as a real recommendation, and the header number is always Facebook's own aggregate.

Facebook tips for Square Online

  • Square Online sites are mostly restaurants, salons, and local services — exactly the businesses Facebook recommendations influence most.
  • The Custom code section works on the free Square Online plan; no upgrade is required to show Facebook recommendations.
  • Place the widget near your ordering or booking section — Facebook proof next to the action button is where it lifts conversions.

How Do I Install BlooTrue Facebook on Square Online?

Takes less than a minute. One section type: Custom code. Works on the free plan.

1

Open the Square Online Editor

Log into your Square dashboard and go to Online → Website. Click Edit site to open the editor on the page where you want reviews — the menu page, booking page, or homepage all work.

Works on the Square Online free plan — no upgrade required.

2

Add a Custom Code Section

Click + Add section where you want the reviews, open the More category, and choose Custom code.

The Custom code section accepts raw HTML and JavaScript — exactly what the BlooTrue Facebook embed is.

3

Paste the Embed Code

Paste the BlooTrue Facebook embed code into the Custom code section's code box and confirm. The editor shows a placeholder while editing; the live widget renders on the published site.

4

Publish

Click Publish in the top-right of the editor. Your Facebook reviews appear on the live site immediately.

Placement tip: restaurants put the widget right above the online-ordering button; salons next to the booking link — that's where Facebook proof converts browsers into customers.

Reviews auto-sync from Facebook every 24 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the BlooTrue Facebook widget free for Square Online?

Yes. BlooTrue is completely free for Square Online. No app install, no recurring fee, unlimited views. The free plan shows your Facebook reviews with BlooTrue branding in the footer.

Does Facebook or Square offer an official Facebook embed for Square Online?

No on both counts. Facebook does not provide an official embed widget for businesses — Facebook's Fusion API is gated for partner apps, not merchant self-embeds. And Square's App Marketplace has no Facebook review-display app. BlooTrue fills both gaps with a free embed pasted into a Custom code section.

Can I add it to a Square Online free plan?

Yes. Square Online supports Custom code sections on the free plan on most page layouts — no upgrade needed. Click + Add section → More → Custom code, paste, and Publish.

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

No. BlooTrue works with any public Facebook Page — no Facebook API key, no Facebook Fusion application, no business-level claim required.

I run a restaurant on Square — why embed Facebook reviews?

Because restaurants are Facebook's home turf and Square Online is the restaurant site builder. Diners check Facebook before choosing where to eat — putting your Facebook stars next to your menu and online-ordering button keeps that proof on YOUR site at the moment of decision, instead of sending visitors to facebook.com where competitors are one tap away.

Where is the Custom code section in the Square Online editor?

From your Square dashboard: Online → Website → Edit site. On the page you're editing, click + Add section, open the More category, and choose Custom code. Paste the embed into the code box and click Publish.

Will it slow my Square Online store?

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 — your ordering and checkout flows are untouched.
