GR Widget (@grwidget) – WordPress user profile

Bio

GR Widget helps businesses display Google reviews beautifully on any website. Create customizable widgets in minutes, paste one line of embed code, and let reviews sync automatically — no Google API keys on your side. Built in the UK for agencies and growing brands who want agency-quality review embeds on WordPress, Shopify, and custom sites.

WordPress Origin Story

Most review widgets forced a Google Business Profile login, showed only a handful of reviews, or needed fragile API setup. We built GR Widget because our own client sites needed trustworthy Google review embeds — real ratings, more than five reviews, and a single script tag with no API keys.

What started as an internal tool for agency WordPress sites became a SaaS product: a visual builder, automatic review sync, JSON-LD on paid plans, and an official WordPress plugin so site owners can go live in minutes.
