About TrustedPulse Reviews
From the official readme · v1.3.5Description
TrustedPulse Reviews connects your WooCommerce store to TrustedPulse, a hosted review collection and display service.
The plugin does three things:
- Syncs your catalog — every published product with a SKU is sent to your TrustedPulse account daily, or on demand from the settings page.
- Requests reviews after purchase — when an order reaches the status you choose, TrustedPulse emails the customer a review invitation after a delay you also choose.
- Displays reviews on product pages — a review widget renders at the placement you pick, with no theme editing.
A TrustedPulse account is required. This plugin is a client for that service and does nothing on its own. You can create an account at trustedpulse.com.
External services
This plugin relies on the TrustedPulse service and will not function without it. It is not affiliated with WordPress.org or WooCommerce.
1. TrustedPulse API — https://api.trustedpulse.com
Used to synchronise your catalog and to request review invitations.
What is sent, and when:
- On product sync (daily via WP-Cron, and when you click “Sync Now”): for each published product that has a SKU — its SKU, name, product URL, featured image URL, price and store currency. Products with no SKU are not sent.
- When an order reaches your chosen trigger status, and only if you enable “automatic review requests”: the customer’s billing email address, billing first name, the order number, and the SKU and name of each purchased product that has one.
- Every request includes the TrustedPulse API key you enter in the plugin settings.
2. TrustedPulse widget script — https://cdn.trustedpulse.com/widget.js
Loaded in visitors’ browsers on product pages to render the review widget. As with any externally hosted script, the visitor’s browser sends its IP address and user agent to that host when fetching the file. The script requests review content for the product SKU shown on the page.
No data is sent to TrustedPulse from your store until you enter an API key. Customer data is sent only when you enable automatic review requests.

Privacy
Personal data (customer email address and first name) leaves your site only when automatic review requests are enabled, and only for orders that have been paid. Disabling that setting stops all transmission of customer data. Deleting the plugin removes its stored settings and cancels any queued review requests.
Installation
- Install and activate the plugin.
- Go to TrustedPulse in the WordPress admin menu.
- Paste the API key from your TrustedPulse dashboard, under Settings → API Keys.
- Choose where the review widget appears, turn on automatic review requests, and click Save settings.
- Click Sync now to send your catalogue straight away.
There is nothing else to configure. The API key is the only credential the plugin needs.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a TrustedPulse account?
Yes. The plugin sends data to and reads reviews from the TrustedPulse service, and does nothing without an account and API key.
Do I need WooCommerce?
Yes. Product sync, order triggers and the product-page widget all depend on WooCommerce.
Why are some products missing from the sync?
A product needs a SKU to sync. TrustedPulse matches purchases and reviews to products by SKU, so a product with no SKU could never collect or show a review even if it were synced — it is excluded instead of creating a dead entry. Set a SKU on the product in WooCommerce and sync again. Any other skip reason is named in the sync report on the settings page.
Should I set SKUs before collecting reviews?
Yes — it is required, not optional. Only products with a SKU are synced. Changing a product’s SKU later makes it a different product to TrustedPulse, so reviews already collected will not follow it.
When is the review email sent?
After the order reaches the trigger status you choose in settings (paid, Processing or Completed), following the delay you also choose — immediately, or after 1, 3 or 7 days. Three days is the default.
Does the plugin email my customers directly?
No. Your store sends the order details to TrustedPulse, and TrustedPulse sends the review invitation.
Is it compatible with High-Performance Order Storage?
Yes. The plugin uses the WooCommerce CRUD API and declares HPOS compatibility.
What happens if I delete the plugin?
All plugin settings are removed and any queued review requests are cancelled. Reviews already collected remain in your TrustedPulse account.
Changelog
Directory submission compatibility update. No merchant action is required.
1.3.5
- Corrected the WordPress.org package folder, output escaping, line endings and upgrade-notice length.
1.3.4
- Kept product-plan information within the TrustedPulse settings screen and removed code that suppressed WordPress or other plugins’ admin notices.
1.3.3
- Updated the WordPress.org package metadata and text domain for directory submission.
1.3.2
- Products without SKUs now sync, collect verified-purchase reviews, and display their review widget using a stable WooCommerce product ID automatically.
1.3.1
- Merchants now see a clear WordPress admin alert when their TrustedPulse product limit is reached. It explains that new products pause while already connected products continue to update automatically.
1.3.0
- Simplified product-page placement to one full-width location immediately below the product summary and before tabs, upsells and related products. This prevents a review widget from ever appearing in a narrow buy-box column.
