What it does

Stores that sell digital goods often have product pages with nothing but the seller's own description. New visitors have no way to see what earlier buyers thought. This plugin gives Easy Digital Downloads a review system of its own, so customers can rate a product with stars and explain their experience in a written comment. Those reviews then appear alongside the product, giving shoppers feedback from real buyers before they decide.

The plugin works inside Easy Digital Downloads, so reviews are tied to the products you already sell. You get moderation and approval tools to keep spam and low-quality posts off your pages, plus display options such as review summaries and featured testimonials. A Reviews block lets you place reviews in the WordPress block editor, and you can send review request emails after a purchase to invite buyers to share their thoughts.
