How to Import Etsy Reviews & Temu Reviews to Shopify Easily 2026 for Free
By Impran M N
Real customer feedback from Etsy and Temu can make a new Shopify store look far more credible than empty product pages, and you don't need to pay for a reviews subscription to get it. This guide shows how to install a free review-import app, scan reviews directly off an Etsy product page using its browser extension, and pull that feedback into your own store's listings. It's aimed squarely at dropshippers and new stores that need social proof before they've built up their own review history.
01Install the Kudosi review app from Shopify
From your Shopify admin, install Kudosi (formerly Ali Reviews) from the app store. Once added, it sits in your left-hand menu with its own section for Import Reviews, Collect Reviews, Manage Reviews, and display settings.
The main Import Reviews screen lists every marketplace it supports as a source — Amazon, AliExpress, eBay, Temu, Dsers, and Etsy each get their own tile, plus a bulk AI-assisted AliExpress import and a CSV path for pulling reviews out of other review apps like Loox or Judge.me. This is also where you'll come back to for eBay or Temu specifically, since the app treats every marketplace as just another source feeding the same review library.

02Add the Kudosi browser extension
Importing straight from a live Etsy or Temu listing needs a companion browser extension, not just the Shopify app. Search the Chrome Web Store for Kudosi (formerly Ali Reviews) and add it to Chrome — at the time of writing it carries a 4.3-star rating across roughly 70,000 users, which is worth checking since extensions with review-scraping permissions are exactly the kind of tool you want a track record on before installing. Once added, the extension icon appears in your browser toolbar and stays available on any product page you visit afterward.

03Scan reviews from an Etsy product page
Navigate to the actual Etsy product whose reviews you want, then open the Kudosi extension from the toolbar. A side panel slides in and asks you to pick your Shopify store and the specific product you're importing into, using the store and product dropdowns at the top. Below that sits a Scan reviews button — click it and the extension reads the review data straight off the Etsy page you're currently viewing and lists it in the panel, ready to bring into Kudosi's library before you push it to your storefront.

04Repeat the same scan on a matching Temu listing
The workflow for Temu is identical in structure: find the Temu product that matches what you're selling, open the same extension panel, select the destination product, and scan. Because Temu and Etsy are just two entries on the same source list inside Kudosi, there's nothing marketplace-specific to relearn — the extension detects the page you're on and pulls whatever reviews are visible there. The main thing to get right is matching the source listing closely to your own product, since imported reviews should describe the item you're actually selling.
05Bulk import and curate before publishing
Back in the Shopify admin under Manage Reviews, scanned reviews sit in a queue rather than going live automatically. This is where bulk actions save the real time — approving or importing many reviews across several products in one pass instead of clicking through each one. It's also your chance to remove anything that reads oddly out of context or doesn't match your product's actual specifics, since a review that references a color or size you don't stock will undercut the credibility you're trying to build.
06Set how reviews display on your storefront
Once reviews are approved, the Show Reviews section controls the widget that actually renders on your product pages — star ratings, review count, layout, and whether photos from the original review are included. Match this to your theme rather than leaving Kudosi's defaults in place, since a review block that looks bolted-on tends to undercut the trust it's supposed to build. Check a live product page after adjusting the settings to confirm reviews render the way you expect on both desktop and mobile.
Frequently asked questions
Is importing Etsy and Temu reviews really free?
Yes, Kudosi's core import flow — installing the Shopify app plus the free Chrome extension — doesn't require a paid plan to scan and bring in reviews from supported marketplaces.
Will this work for a dropshipping store?
Yes, it's suited for both dropshipping stores and stores selling their own products, since the goal is simply to add social proof from a matching listing.
Can I import reviews for many products at once?
Yes, Manage Reviews inside Kudosi supports bulk actions so you're not approving or importing reviews one product at a time.
Can I edit the imported reviews before they go live?
Yes, imported reviews sit in a queue where you can curate, edit, or remove anything that doesn't match your product before it displays on your storefront.
Do I need the browser extension, or does the Shopify app alone work?
You need both — the Shopify app manages your review library and display settings, while the Chrome extension is what actually scans reviews off a live Etsy or Temu product page.
