Where to find this: Shopify admin → Apps → Yuko Loyalty → Integrations → Judge.me
Introduction
Judge.me is a widely-used Shopify reviews platform. If your store already uses Judge.me for reviews and you’d like to reward customers with Yuko loyalty points for submitting a review there, the Judge.me integration wires the two together. When connected, Yuko subscribes to Judge.me webhooks and awards loyalty points based on your Write a Review Way to Earn whenever a customer’s review lands.When to use it
- You’re on Judge.me for reviews and don’t plan to switch.
- You want customers who write Judge.me reviews to earn Yuko loyalty points.
- You want the reward to fire based on Judge.me’s review lifecycle events (created / updated) rather than your own moderation flow.
Before you start
You have an active Judge.me account connected to your Shopify store.
You have your Judge.me shop token (available in Judge.me admin → Settings → API).
Your Yuko Write a Review Way to Earn is enabled and configured with the point value you’d like to award.

In Shopify admin, go to Apps → Yuko Loyalty → Integrations, and click Judge.me.
3

Toggle review/created and/or review/updated based on your Judge.me moderation flow — see below.
5
Save settings
Click Save Settings. Yuko starts awarding points on matching events.
The two webhook events
Judge.me exposes two review-lifecycle events; which one you want depends on whether you auto-publish or manually approve reviews in Judge.me.How the reward works
- Customer writes a review on your storefront (using the Judge.me widget).
- Judge.me processes the review per your moderation settings (auto-publish or pending review).
- When the matching webhook fires (
review/createdorreview/updated), Judge.me sends the review data to Yuko. - Yuko looks up the customer by the email on the review, and awards points using the Write a Review Way to Earn’s configuration.
Example use case
Auto-publish store on Judge.me, 50 pts per review- In Yuko, open Loyalty → Ways to Earn → Write a Review, enable it, set to 50 pts, save.
- Connect Judge.me in Integrations, paste the shop token.
- Enable review/created (because Judge.me auto-publishes).
- Save. From now on, every new Judge.me review → 50 pts on the customer’s Yuko balance.
- Same setup, but enable review/updated instead of created (because reviews only “count” after a moderator approves them).
- When a moderator approves a pending review,
review/updatedfires → Yuko awards 100 pts.
Limitations
- Requires a matching customer email. If the reviewer’s email doesn’t match a Yuko customer profile, no points are awarded.
- Points value is set in the Way to Earn. This integration doesn’t offer per-review point overrides.
- Yuko can’t fetch historical Judge.me reviews. The integration only listens to new / updated webhooks going forward. To reward customers for older Judge.me reviews retroactively, see Backfill Points.
- Judge.me webhook registration is subject to Judge.me’s own rate limits and availability.
- Anonymous reviews (no email) are skipped.
FAQs
Do I need Yuko's reviews module?
Do I need Yuko's reviews module?
No. This integration is exactly for stores that use Judge.me instead of Yuko’s own reviews module. Yuko’s reviews stay disabled.
What if a review is deleted in Judge.me after points were awarded?
What if a review is deleted in Judge.me after points were awarded?
Yuko doesn’t automatically revoke the points — delete events aren’t currently subscribed to. If you need to reverse an award, do it manually from the customer’s activity in Yuko.
Can I award different point amounts for photo vs text reviews?
Can I award different point amounts for photo vs text reviews?
Not in the current integration. Point amount is whatever the Write a Review Way to Earn is set to.
Which event fires first if I have both enabled?
