TrustFusion is a free Google reviews plugin for WordPress. Connect your Google Business Profile, choose a layout, copy the shortcode, and display your Google reviews and star rating on any page. No Google API key and no coding required.

Reviews are stored on your own server instead of being loaded from Google on every page view, so pages stay fast. TrustFusion also adds JSON-LD AggregateRating schema markup using your business’s real Google rating and review count, which can help your listing qualify for star ratings in search results.

Video guide

Watch how to connect your business, choose a layout and add the shortcode to a page:

Google review layouts

Use a different layout in every shortcode:

  • Grid — responsive review cards, with “Read more” on long reviews.
  • Grid – Scroll Excerpt — the same grid, with each review scrolling inside its card.
  • List — one review per row, with “Read more” on long reviews.
  • List – Scroll Excerpt — the same list, with scrolling review text.
  • Carousel — a full-width review slider with your business header, arrows, dots and auto-play. Drag with the mouse or swipe on touch screens.
  • Carousel – Inline — a slider with your business logo, star rating and “review us on Google” button on the left, and scrollable review cards on the right.

Features

  • Connect a Google Business Profile through the built-in relay, with no Google API key. You can add your own Google Maps/Places API key for direct access.
  • Shortcode builder on the Overview page: choose a layout and the number of reviews, tick what to show, then copy the finished shortcode.
  • Show or hide the business header, rating, company address, “View on Google” button, “Write a Review” button and review date, globally in Settings or per shortcode.
  • Business logo — pick one per business from the Media Library. It falls back to your site logo, then your site icon.
  • Multi-location support — show each business separately or merge several into one review feed.
  • Hide or show individual reviews without deleting them.
  • Lightweight — CSS and JavaScript load only on pages that use the shortcode (default setting).
  • Works with any theme and any editor that supports shortcodes.
  • Reviews are fetched when you connect a business, when you reactivate the plugin, or when you click “Sync Reviews Now” (up to once a month per business). The Free plan has no background sync. TrustFusion Pro adds weekly automatic syncing and unlimited manual sync.

External services

This plugin connects to external services to fetch and display your Google reviews. Details below.

  1. Google Business Profile API / Google Places API
    Used to search for your business and fetch its reviews, rating, and business details for display on your site. This happens when: you search for a business on the “Add New” admin page, you connect a business (via the TrustFusion relay, or your own Google Maps/Places API key if you’ve added one), you reactivate the plugin, or you click “Sync Reviews Now” (up to once a month per business). Data sent to Google includes your search query and/or the connected business’s Google Place ID.
    This service is provided by Google LLC — Google APIs Terms of Service — Google Privacy Policy.

  2. TrustFusion Relay (reviews.webcitylab.com)
    When you connect a business without entering your own Google API key (the default, key-free path), this plugin sends your site URL and the connected business’s Google Place ID to reviews.webcitylab.com — a service operated by Web City Lab (this plugin’s developer) — which fetches the review data on your behalf. This plugin doesn’t impose any review-count limit of its own; the relay itself currently returns up to 10 reviews per business for requests without a paid TrustFusion Pro license, to keep the shared, free service sustainable.
