Judge.me integrationFree · no credit cardAn estimated 30% of online reviews are fake or paid for. One spotted on your Judge.me widget and shoppers stop trusting the rest.
It doesn't just cost you the fake ones. When ratings look inflated, your real reviews lose their power to convert too. Securify scores every Judge.me review for authenticity and flags the ones you shouldn't trust.
Free on every Securify plan, including the free plan. Most merchants never pay for it.

Why a star average alone isn't enough
Auto-publish posts whatever arrives. Securify tells you which reviews to trust before shoppers see them.
A verified-buyer badge only covers reviews that came from an order email. Throwaway accounts, incentivized fakes and coordinated bombs still land in your average and on your product pages.

Planted five-star reviews inflate the average. Review bombs tank it. Either way the number lies.
