Yelp Review Widget for Jimdo — Free, Fills Yelp's Embed Gap
BlooTrue's Yelp Review Widget for Jimdo is a free embed that displays your reviews on any Jimdo site — works with both Jimdo Creator and Jimdo Dolphin / AI Builder via the Widget/HTML element. Yelp has no official embed widget for merchants — only third-party widgets like BlooTrue can put Yelp reviews on Jimdo. The free Jimdo plan (.jimdofree.com subdomain with Jimdo branding) supports the widget; paid Jimdo plans (Start at $9, Grow at $15, Unlimited at $39) work identically. Jimdo does not have a third-party app marketplace like Wix or Shopify, so there is no plugin to install — the widget is just an HTML snippet you paste into a Widget/HTML element. No Yelp API key, no Yelp Fusion application, no business-level claim required. Strong support for DACH-region domains (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) since Jimdo is German-origin and these are its core markets.
How to embed Yelp reviews on Jimdo in 60 seconds
- Open your site in the Jimdo editor (works on both Creator and Dolphin / AI Builder).
- Hover where you want the reviews and click + Add Element, then pick Widget/HTML (on Dolphin / AI Builder click the + → More → Widget).
- Paste the BlooTrue embed code into the HTML field — not the URL field.
- Click Save, then Preview → Publish in the top right.
Why doesn't Yelp have an official embed for Jimdo?
Yelp'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. Yelp does not publish a paste-ready embed widget the way Trustpilot publishes TrustBox or Google publishes Place Cards. Third-party widgets are the standard way Jimdo sites surface their Yelp reviews — BlooTrue is the free option in that category, and pastes directly into the standard Jimdo Widget/HTML element.
