Submit your tool to Trustpilot

Trustpilot is a public review platform where customers rate businesses by domain. A software company claims its free profile, invites customers to leave reviews and replies to them.

Go to the submit page Nofollow link Free plan; Plus from $319/month per domain

Is Trustpilot worth it?

Useful for consumer facing and SMB SaaS where buyers check reviews before paying, less so for developer tools. The free plan covers claiming the profile, replying and 50 automated review invitations a month, which is enough for a small product. The website link is nofollow, so treat it as trust and brand search coverage, not SEO. Paid plans start at $319 per month per domain on 12 month contracts, which is too much for most small makers.

Who should submit to Trustpilot?

Suits B2C apps, ecommerce tools, subscription software and SMB SaaS with paying customers who can leave reviews. Does not suit pre launch products, B2B tools whose buyers read G2 or Capterra instead, or makers who mainly want backlinks.
