Our trust promise

Our trust promise - Trustpilot, June 2020

Het vertrouwen heeft een flinke deuk opgelopen.

Het is duidelijk wat het afnemende vertrouwen in nieuwsmedia, overheidsinstanties, bedrijven en elkaar met onze samenleving doet. Pal onder onze neus voltrekken zich grote maatschappelijke verschuivingen, en als er één plek is waar het vertrouwen moet worden hersteld, dan is het wel het internet.

Het internet wordt verondersteld een platform voor vooruitgang te zijn, dat ons dichter bij elkaar brengt en samenwerking en positieve verandering mogelijk maakt. En dat is het ook. Maar het is ook een instrument geworden dat voor verdeeldheid zorgt en een negatieve impact heeft op het algehele vertrouwen en onze relaties.

Het terugwinnen van vertrouwen in al zijn gedaanten is een van de grootste uitdagingen van deze tijd.

Als tech-bedrijf dat meningen en standpunten aanmoedigt, gaan wij deze uitdaging uiteraard niet uit de weg, en zullen we nog proactiever handelen om het online vertrouwen te beschermen en te bevorderen.

Consumentenreviews kunnen het volgende slachtoffer worden van het wantrouwen binnen onze digitale samenleving. Als we toestaan dat censuur, manipulatie en gefabriceerde feedback de authentieke stem van de consument en de waarheid vertroebelen, kan het vertrouwen in reviews verloren gaan. En dat zou heel zonde zijn, want op aanbevelingen van vrienden en familie na, vormen reviews de meest betrouwbare bron van informatie voor consumenten — maar liefst 89% leest ze in aanloop naar een aankoop.

Gelukkig is het nog niet te laat.

Ik heb Trustpilot in 2007 opgericht om vertrouwen en samenwerking tussen consumenten en bedrijven te bevorderen. Hoe? Door een open en transparant reviewplatform te bieden waar men kosteloos authentieke feedback kan achterlaten en beantwoorden, en waar geen plaats is voor censuur. Meer dan 90 miljoen reviews over ruim 400.000 bedrijven en websites later, is dat nog altijd ons uitgangspunt.

Waar het tegenovergestelde het geval is en consumenten zorgvuldig worden voorgeselecteerd om hun ervaringen te delen en enkel positieve feedback wordt gepubliceerd — zoals vandaag de dag op veel reviewplatforms gebeurt — is schadelijk voor het vertrouwen, waardoor consumenten en bedrijven van elkaar vervreemden.

Zoals met alle vormen van vrije meningsuiting, zijn er grenzen. Illegale, obscene en gefabriceerde reviews moeten niet worden toegestaan en bestreden worden. Dit is een aspect waar elk reviewplatform zijn uiterste best voor moet doen, dus ook wij.

Ik erken ook dat, nu de dreiging van bedrog is toegenomen, de tools om misbruikers ter verantwoording te roepen — of het nu gaat om kleine overtredingen of systematisch bedrog — ook moeten worden verbeterd. Ik aanvaard die uitdaging.

Misschien wel ons krachtigste maar eenvoudigste middel is dit: meer openheid geven over reviewmisbruik en het gedrag van alle gebruikers op ons platform. Dit is waar we nog veel meer kunnen en zullen doen.

Daarom verbind ik mij ertoe om zeven fundamentele veranderingen aan te brengen aan het Trustpilot-platform. Dit is mijn persoonlijke *Trust Promise*.

- __Gerapporteerde reviews blijven online staan__

Alle bedrijven en consumenten kunnen een review rapporteren die volgens hen nep is of de regels van ons platform overtreedt. In de toekomst zullen deze reviews online blijven staan terwijl wij de zaak onderzoeken. Consumenten hebben aangegeven dat ze zich anders gecensureerd kunnen voelen. Illegale inhoud vormt hierop de enige uitzondering.

- __Van bedrijven die de richtlijnen schenden, zullen reviews niet langer gedeeld worden met zoekmachines__

De Trustpilot-sterren van bedrijven waarover een consumentenwaarschuwing op de bedrijfspagina is geplaatst, zullen niet langer verschijnen in zoekmachineresultaten.

- __Uittesten van een nieuw fraudevingerafdruksysteem__

Dit verhoogt Trustpilots vermogen om nepreviews te ontdekken en te verwijderen, door middel van nieuwe technologie die helpt om de herkomst van neppe reviews en reviewers vast te stellen.

- __Versterken van ons consumentenwaarschuwingssysteem__

Zodra een bedrijf betrapt wordt op het omzeilen van het systeem worden consumenten ingelicht via een duidelijker en sneller systeem van publieke meldingen.

- __Uitbreiding van onze Content Integrity- en Data Science-teams__

Trustpilot gebruikt geavanceerde technologie, ontwikkeld door bekwame data scientists om nepreviews en scheldpartijen eruit te filteren, aangevuld met grondig getrainde Content Integrity-medewerkers en fraude-onderzoekers. De investering en mankracht wordt verdubbeld op dit gebied.

- __Nog meer transparantie op bedrijfspagina’s__

Bovenop de uitgebreide data die nu al wordt gedeeld, voegt Trustpilot ook nog nieuwe gegevens toe die consumenten helpen achterhalen hoe elk bedrijf het platform gebruikt.

- __Beloningen voor reviews niet langer toegestaan__

Alhoewel de meeste bedrijven beloningen om meer feedback te krijgen op de juiste manier inzetten, is het zorgelijk dat welke vorm van beloning dan ook de feedback op een positieve manier kan beïnvloeden. 

Vertrouwen verdienen en misbruikers op afstand houden is een doorlopende en permanente taak. Alleen al in het afgelopen jaar hebben we bijvoorbeeld miljoenen nepreviews verwijderd, op 489 bedrijfsprofielen een openbare consumentenwaarschuwing geplaatst en voor iedereen zichtbaar gemaakt hoe elk bedrijf reviews verzamelt en rapporteert. 

Maar we moeten en zullen meer doen — en dat is de belofte die ik vandaag doe.

__Peter Holten Mühlmann, oprichter en CEO van Trustpilot__

Trustpilot debuts on the London Stock Exchange

Trustpilot lists on the London Stock Exchange

We’re excited to announce that Trustpilot has listed on the London Stock Exchange, marking an incredible milestone in our history and the beginning of a new chapter in our story. 

Trustpilot was founded with a simple vision in mind: to create an independent currency of trust. 

We wanted to empower consumers to make confident, informed purchasing decisions — while providing businesses with the tools to engage with their customers and demonstrate the quality of their services to build trust. 

Since 2007, consumers in over 200 countries and territories have shared over 120 million experiences for more than 529,000 websites, helping others by sharing those experiences, and proving the intrinsic value of trust.

So today, we’re very excited to announce that [Trustpilot has listed on the London Stock Exchange](https://www.londonstockexchange.com/discover/news-and-insights/london-stock-exchange-welcomes-truspilot-premium-segment-main-market), marking an incredible milestone in our history and the beginning of a new chapter in our story.

It’s another step in our vision towards creating an independent currency of trust. On a platform that is free to use, open to everybody, and built on transparency. 

We want to thank everyone who has shared their experiences on Trustpilot, listened to that feedback, and believed in our mission. We share this incredible achievement with *you*. 

The bar is never set at Trustpilot and we’re more than ready to start the next chapter of our journey together!

With the power of your customers’ voices, you can get closer to consumers, and win new business. We want to make it even easier for our business users to feature their reviews in email campaigns. Klaviyo was the obvious choice for our integration.

Like every marketing channel, email performs better when it proves the business is trusted by consumers. With the power of your existing customers’ voices, you can get closer to consumers, and win new customers.

This is why we wanted to make it even easier for our business users to feature their reviews in email campaigns. As one of the most popular email service providers in the fast-growing eCommerce sector, Klaviyo was the obvious choice for our integration. 

## Here’s how it works

The integration is easy to use. After connecting your accounts, customize the Trustpilot widget for Klaviyo newsletters. Select the review type (service or product), star-rating threshold, and keyword content that you want to display in newsletters. Drop this widget into your Klaviyo newsletters, and send. Any time email recipients open the email, they’ll see the most recent reviews that match your settings, as well as your current TrustScore.


Klaviyo Trustpilot integration

## Using the integration for social proof in email marketing

Review content in email campaigns can make a meaningful difference at critical points of the customer journey. In fact, 82% of consumers report that [ratings and reviews in email marketing can make them more likely to make a purchase](https://business.trustpilot.com/guides-reports/build-trusted-brand/why-and-how-social-proof-influences-consumers).

We tell our business users to add reviews to welcome campaigns to grow trust at the beginning of the customer journey, in cart abandonment emails to bring them closer to the sale, and in winback campaigns to extend LTV. Timely promotional newsletters can also benefit from the increased conversion that reviews bring.

Trustpilot and Klaviyo, partnership announcement

Social proof in email marketing is easier than ever with Trustpilot’s Klaviyo integration

Trust is broken. 

It’s plain to see what declining trust in news media, public bodies, brands and each other is doing to our societies. Societal upheaval is happening in front of our eyes and one place that needs fixing (though certainly not the only one) is the Internet.

The Internet is supposed to be a platform for progress, bringing us closer together and unlocking collaboration and positive change. And it is. But it has also become a tool for dividing us and destroying trust and our relationships, too. 

Rediscovering that lost trust in all its guises is a defining issue of our times.  

As the builders of technology, and particularly ‘social’ technology that amplifies voices and viewpoints, we have to own the challenges within our realm - not duck it - which means being more proactive in protecting and promoting trust. 

Consumer reviews could become the next victim of the forces of distrust that have plagued other parts of the Internet. If we allow censorship, manipulation and fakes to stifle authentic consumer voices and cloud the truth, trust could be crushed. As reviews are the second most trusted source of consumer information (after family and friends and well ahead of advertising) that would be a huge price to pay.  

It’s not inevitable, however. 

I founded Trustpilot in 2007 to enable companies and consumers to earn trust together. How? By sharing and responding to honest feedback in a transparent public space that’s free and open to all with nothing censored or hidden. More than 90 million reviews of 400,000 sites and companies later, that’s still our guiding light. 

Where the inverse is true and consumers are carefully pre-selected to share their experience and the best of those experiences selectively published - as happens today in many feedback platforms - trust erodes over time, alienating consumers and businesses alike.

As with all forms of free speech, there must be guardrails. Illegal, obscene, fake or scam shouldn’t be allowed and, in fact, must be actively weeded out. This is an area where every review site can and must do better, including us. 

I also recognise that as the threat of deception has risen, the tools for holding abusers to account - whether it’s small infringements or systemic cheating - need to improve too. I fully accept and own that challenge. 

Perhaps the most powerful yet simple tool in our armoury is this: to shine a brighter light on review abuse through greater transparency about how all users behave on our platform.  This is where we can and will do much more. 

So I’m committing to making seven fundamental changes to the Trustpilot platform starting now until Christmas. This is my Trust Promise.

- __We’re keeping ‘flagged’ reviews online__

Any company or consumer can flag a review they believe to be fake or breaks our platform rules. Going forward those reviews will remain online while we investigate. Consumers have told us they can feel censored otherwise. Illegal content will be the only exception.


- __We’re not sharing reviews of companies that breach our guidelines with search engines__

That means the Trustpilot stars will no longer appear in search engine results for companies who have had an alert put on their page. 

- __We’re pioneering a new ‘fraud fingerprint’__

New cutting edge technologies will enhance our ability to pinpoint the source of fake reviews, reviewers and scams. 


- __We’re strengthening our ‘consumer alert’ system__

When we catch a company trying to game the system, we’ll let consumers know via a clearer and faster system of public alerts. 


- __We’re doubling our Content Integrity and Data Science teams__

We use advanced technology built by skilled data scientists to weed out fakes and abuse. We supplement that with highly trained content integrity agents and fraud investigators. We’re doubling the people and investment in these areas. 

- __We’re adding even more transparency to company pages__ 

On top of the extensive data we already share, we’re adding new data points to help consumers see exactly how every company invites reviews and uses our platform. 

- __We’ll no longer allow review incentives__ 

Despite most companies using incentives in the right way to get more feedback, there’s growing concern that any incentive could sway sentiment in a more positive direction. 

This is not an exhaustive list. Earning trust and keeping abusers at bay is a permanent task. In the past year alone, for example, we’ve removed millions of fake reviews, put a public consumer warning on 489 company profiles and led the world by showing how every company invites and flags reviews. But we need to do more - and that’s the promise I’m making today.

Trustpilot update

Trustpilot update header image with orange bar

Corona Virus (COVID-19) - At Trustpilot, we are doing our small part to fight the spread of COVID-19 and keeping our teams healthy by temporarily closing all of our physical offices as of last week

We’ve received some questions from our customers and partners about our business and service continuity during this time, and we’re happy to report that the Trustpilot tools and resources that you use to build trust every day will remain available to you. We have well-practiced plans in place with our supply chain partners to make sure that’s the case in all reasonable scenarios. 

You can find more information below, and we will continue to update this blog post as necessary.

### Are Trustpilot’s Support and Customer Success teams available during this time?

Absolutely. To ensure the health and safety of our employees and communities, all Trustpilot employees have transitioned to working remotely, and our internal IT teams are dedicated to ensuring they’re equipped with the tools and systems they need to continue to provide world-class service to our customers. You can continue to use the same phone numbers and email addresses you’ve always used for your Trustpilot contacts, and our Support team continues to be available via [our support site](https://support.trustpilot.com/hc/en-us/requests/new).

### What provisions have been made to deal with COVID-19 for you and your supply chain?

We're cloud-based, so remote working and access to necessary systems to provide the same level of services all our customers are used to, is well-practiced and robust. We are working with our cloud computing and systems partners - as we do as part of normal business operations - to ensure the integrity and availability of our platform. This includes all the systems our commercial teams need to continue to support customers throughout. 

### How does your business continuity plan deal with COVID-19 and how prepared are you now for increased outbreak?

Our business continuity plan in any situation prioritizes safety, first and foremost. Now we've moved to remote working, we can dedicate our company resources to ensuring our service to you continues as normal. We’ve prepared our people and given them all of the connectivity and tools they need to continue delivering great advice, service and support to you, even in the event of an escalation of the current situation, wherever they’re working from. 

### How and when do you expect the COVID-19 situation to affect your services? 

It's not necessarily a case of 'how and when' Coronavirus will affect our services, but 'if'. An escalation would have to be severe enough to disrupt core internet infrastructure, such as degraded Google or Amazon Web Services, or direct disruption to our  key CRM software partners’ platforms, for there to be any disruption to the services we provide to our customers. Our systems and platform team work hand-in-hand with all of our technical supply chain partners to deliver our service every day - this situation is no different. We have been given every reassurance about the resilience of these core services that we rely on and have implemented additional alerting and monitoring to our core services to ensure that we can proactively invoke mitigating actions. In the event that we have any indication otherwise, or the situation does escalate and have a direct impact on our supply chain and so us, we'll keep you updated.

Paypal-Trustpilot-announcement

You already know PayPal: the open digital payments platform democratizing financial services and empowering businesses to not only join, but also thrive in the global economy. 

They’ve uncovered a genius way to use customer reviews to help improve experiences for everyone.

The team at PayPal gets tons of merchant applications from businesses hoping to use their various tools and services, from accepting payments to managing orders. An in-house compliance team at PayPal thoroughly vets each application by examining the business’ overall health.

Via Trustpilot’s API, PayPal will look at data from millions of customer ratings and reviews as part of its evaluation and validation process for new business merchants applying to use their services. 


Trustpilot ratings and review data offers PayPal another tool to evaluate merchant applications, and gives officers tangible, transparent data about something that’s often hard to quantify: honest customer experiences.

Segment+Trustpilot integration

Segment integration for Trustpilot

### What’s Segment?

Segment is a platform for your customer data. It gives you an easy way to collect, clean, and control your customer data. So instead of installing every tool into your website separately, you can use Segment to combine your customer data and send it to any tool for data warehousing, analytics, or marketing - including Trustpilot.

### What’s in it for me?

Nearly 95% of shoppers read online reviews before making a purchase ([Spiegel Research Center, 2017](http://spiegel.medill.northwestern.edu/online-reviews/)), but for companies, getting those reviews is the hard part. 

That’s where Trustpilot comes in.

We tap into your customer’s desire to share their experience, and make it easy for your customers to write reviews for your business. The easier it is for people to write a review, the more reviews you’ll receive.  

Our review invitation tools give your business:

- __Automation:__ Work smarter, not harder. Trustpilot automatically triggers an email to your customers after every purchase so you’ll continually have up-to-date reviews of your business.

- __Reminders:__ Sometimes we all forget. Email reminders give a friendly bump to your email invitation and generate an additional 33% more reviews for your business.

- __Verified Reviews:__ Get that Google Seller Rating. Reviews that come through Trustpilot review collection tools are verified, and count toward your Google Seller Rating.  Seller Ratings generate stars for your Google Ads, and according to Google’s blog, can increase click-through-rates by 10% on average.


### Do I need a developer?

Nope. It’s plug-and-play.

Take a look:



trustpilot settings segment integration

Trustpilot already has integrations for most eCommerce platforms, but if you don’t have a traditional eCommerce business, or if you have a custom-built site, then Segment makes getting up and running with Trustpilot a snap.

### How do I get started?

If you’re already using Segment,  then you’re just minutes away from getting more Trustpilot reviews. 

Simply [sign in to Segment](https://app.segment.com/login), find ‘Trustpilot integration’, and sync your website.
