Understanding Your Review System

Here’s how Yuko works after setup:

How Customers Receive Review Requests

The automatic flow:
  1. Customer places an order on your store
  2. You mark the order as “Completed” (delivered)
  3. Yuko waits 7 days (you control this timing)
  4. Customer receives email with link to review form
  5. Customer clicks link and writes review
  6. Review appears in your Yuko Dashboard
No manual work needed - This happens automatically for every order.
Best timing: Most stores send review requests 7-10 days after delivery. This gives customers time to use the product.
After a customer submits a review:
  • Auto-Publish ON: Review shows on your store immediately
  • Auto-Publish OFF: You approve the review first, then it shows
Where reviews appear:
  • Product pages (where customers make buying decisions)
  • Star ratings (on product listings)
  • Homepage carousel (showcase best reviews)
  • Review collection page (all reviews in one place)
Learn about review displays
After your first reviews arrive, increase your collection rate:
  • Add reminder emails - Send a gentle reminder to customers who didn’t respond (adds 50% more reviews)
  • Offer small rewards - Give 10% discount for reviews with photos (doubles photo review rate)
  • Reply to reviews - Thank customers publicly (encourages more reviews)
  • Make it easy - Mobile-friendly form = more responses
Expected results:
  • Without optimization: 5-10% of customers leave reviews
  • With reminders + rewards: 15-25% of customers leave reviews
Advanced collection strategies
Common review management tasks:
  • Approve reviews - Decide which reviews go live
  • Reply to reviews - Respond to customers publicly
  • Feature top reviews - Highlight your best feedback
  • Handle negative reviews - Reply professionally to concerns
  • Moderate spam - Block fake or inappropriate reviews
