How to show Judge.me reviews in your back in stock and preorder emails

STOQ now integrates with Judge.me, the most-installed product review app on Shopify. Once you connect your Judge.me account, your notification emails can show each product's star rating, review count, and its best reviews right below the product image, styled to match your email template.

This works for back in stock alerts (including reminders) and preorder confirmation and shipping update emails. It gives customers social proof at the exact moment they're deciding to buy, with no impact on your storefront speed (the reviews are pulled into the email, not added to your store).

Step 1: Connect your Judge.me account

1. In STOQ, go to Back in stock alerts from left meu bar → Settings tab → Click on Integrations tab → Click on See Integrations button under Marketing section
2. Find the Judge.me card and click Set up button
3. Click on Turn on for "Show reviews in email alerts" to connect your Judge.me account.

It uses the reviews already on your store, so there's nothing else to import.

Step 2: Turn on reviews in your email template

1. Open your email template: Back in stock alerts from left menu bar → Notifications tab → Customize email
2. Open Judge.me product reviews in the editor in the Integrations section and turn on Show product reviews.

One setting covers the first alert and all reminders.

For preorders, do the same under Preorders from left menu bar → Settings tab → Notifications → Customize email. Reviews show on the confirmation and shipping update emails, never on payment emails.

Step 3 (optional): Fine-tune the section

While Show product reviews is on, you can set:

• Number of reviews to show (1 to 3)
• Only show reviews rated a minimum star rating (5 stars only, 4 stars and up, or 3 stars and up)
• Section title shown above the reviews. You can translate the title per language in the template translator.

Good to know

• Products without published reviews skip the section automatically, so those emails just look normal.
• If reviews can't be loaded for any reason, the email still sends as usual, just without the reviews section.
• Review data refreshes about every 2 days.
• The section renders on emails sent through STOQ. If you send through Klaviyo or use a custom Liquid template, use the new {{ reviews.* }} variables in your own template instead.
