What each product is

★WeWidget

Purpose-built for Google Reviews. One product, one use case: embed your Google Business Profile reviews on your website. Flat UK pricing from £5/month, unlimited views, no caps.

◆Trustindex

A multi-source review platform that aggregates reviews from 133 platforms — Google, Facebook, TripAdvisor, Yelp and many others — with email, QR and NFC review-collection tools. Google Reviews is one of many supported sources. Billed annually only.

Quick verdict: Trustindex may suit businesses that want to manage and display reviews from many platforms in one place — it supports 133 review platforms and its WordPress plugin has over 900,000 installs at 4.9 stars. WeWidget is built for local service businesses that want a focused, simple Google Reviews widget with true monthly UK pricing and no complicated dashboard.
The billing difference: Trustindex has no monthly plan — at time of writing (July 2026) it bills annually only, from $65/year up to $349/year, so you commit a year up front after a 7-day trial. WeWidget bills truly monthly (£5 or £9/mo, cancel anytime) and gives you 30 days free, no card required.

Frequently asked questions

Is WeWidget a Trustindex alternative?
Yes. If you want a simple, focused Google Reviews widget for your local business website, WeWidget is an alternative to Trustindex. WeWidget is built specifically around Google Reviews, with true monthly UK pricing from £5/month and a 30-day free trial with no card required.
Does Trustindex have a monthly plan?
No. At time of writing (July 2026), Trustindex bills annually only: Single is $65/year, Pro is $125/year and Ultimate is $349/year. You commit to a year up front. WeWidget offers true monthly billing at £5/month (Starter) or £9/month (Pro), with annual options at £45 and £81 if you prefer.
Is the free Trustindex WordPress plugin enough?
It might be for a very small site. The free plugin shows your last 10 Google reviews, allows 1 widget, and — according to Trustindex's own support answers — requires a manual refresh roughly every 10 days to keep reviews up to date. It is unbranded, which is generous for a free tool. WeWidget's free option is a Google rating badge showing your real star rating and review count, and paid plans sync automatically — automatically, every day.
What do Trustindex users complain about?
In review excerpts on Capterra and G2, some users report that paid plans cap at 3 Google review sources per account — a limit they say they discovered only after paying — and that support can be slow to respond. Experiences vary, so it is worth reading recent reviews yourself. Trustindex also scores very well in places: its WordPress plugin has over 900,000 installs at a 4.9-star rating.
How do the free trials compare?
WeWidget gives you 30 days free with no card required. Trustindex offers a 7-day trial, also without a card. Thirty days is enough time to see new reviews arrive and sync to your site automatically.
Which is better for small local businesses?
WeWidget is designed specifically for local service businesses — trades, salons, restaurants, dog walkers and similar. Trustindex may suit businesses that want to display reviews from many different platforms in one place: it supports 133 review platforms and its WordPress plugin has over 900,000 installs rated 4.9 stars.
Can I remove WeWidget branding?
Yes. The Pro plan (£9/month) removes all WeWidget branding from your widget.
Can I use WeWidget on Wix, WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace or Webflow?
Yes. WeWidget works on Wix, WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace, Webflow, and any plain HTML website.
Does WeWidget support unlimited views?
Yes. All WeWidget plans include unlimited page views — no caps, no overage fees, ever.
