  • Very customisable and easy to use.

    We've used the Rich Showcase for Google Reviews plugin on a couple of sites and have been very happy with the results. We originally used another plugin that required connecting our GMB account and it was painful, but this plugin is very easy to set up and customize. Thank you Rich Plugins!

  • Excellent plugin

    This tool was recommended to me by a paid AI. I can praise the developer because he is excellent. It works as it should. You just have to learn to use it. He fulfilled my expectations. There are enough settings for me to be able to intelligently set it up on a website. I give 11 points out of 10.

  • Not connecting with our Google Reviews

    we installed it, start Reviews Connector and connecting with our own google review account and then......? nothing?? I get a RED pop up saying: The system global limit is 10 requests every 3 days. This limit has been reached.Please connect your other ratings and reviews or update existing after: 20 hours.
