The Selected With Trust badge is a small embedded widget you place on your own website. It displays your live star rating and review count, updating automatically as new reviews arrive. It is a real-time trust signal for visitors who discover your site before finding you on the platform.
How it works
The badge is a JavaScript snippet that calls back to the Selected With Trust servers on each page load. It fetches your current rating, review count, and subscription status and renders the widget dynamically. Because it checks your subscription on every load, it automatically stops rendering if your plan no longer includes the badge no manual removal required.
Why we chose this method
We believe the value of our verified reviews. By making the embed available in this manner we can guarantee all reviews are fresh and not altered. please see section 5.11 of our terms and services

Which plans include the badge?
The trust badge is available on Pro, Business, and Business+ plans. It is not available on the Free tier.
What happens if you downgrade?
If you move to a tier that does not include the badge, the widget silently stops rendering and thus it simply disappears from your website. You do not need to remove the code. If you upgrade again later, the badge reactivates automatically without any changes to your embed snippet.
