Thanks for sharing your feedback!
Site Review After Invoice helps users on non-supported platforms automatically send site review requests to customers.
Please note:
- Only use this feature if you cannot successfully integrate the Automatic Review Request feature
- This feature can be added upon request on selected Yotpo plans. To find out if this feature is included in your plan, check out our pricing page
As this solution reads invoices instead of actual orders, its properties differ from the automatic review request in 2 aspects - The Reviewer Badge and The Customer name:
Reviewer Badge Properties
All the reviews are Site Reviews and shown with a Verified Reviewer badge
Customer Name Properties
The customer's name isn't pulled automatically from the invoice. The name is pulled from the email address associated with the relevant customer.
This means that the name that is included in the Site Review After Invoice will be one of the following options:
- If the source email where the Site Review is sent from has a name associated with the destination email address (i.e. the destination email and its details exist in the sender's contact list), that name will be pulled. For example, if johnsmith@yotpo.com has the name John Smith associated with it in the source email's list of existing contacts, the review request will use the name John Smith
- If there is no name associated with the destination email address, meaning it isn't part of the source email's existing contact list - the username of the email will be used (i.e. everything that precedes the @ section of the email address). For example, johnsmith@yotpo.com will have the johnsmith on the review request

Configuring the Review Submission Settings
As review submission forms are rendered differently across various browsers, devices, and email clients, Yotpo offers you the ability to choose the form-type you wish to display to your customers. The Review Submission Settings allow you to choose between the formats outlined below.
| Form-type | Display |
|---|---|
| Real-time Optimization (default) | Detects the device and email client used to open review request emails and will automatically display the review submission form that is most personalized and compatible at that time. |
| In-mail form | Your customers will receive the review submission form in-mail and will be able to submit their reviews directly through the email. |
| Landing page | Upon clicking on the star rating, your customer will be directed to submit their review via an external landing page. |
