Ultrō, YOTPO AGENCY
Yotpo is an automated digital marketing solution that integrates with the leading e-commerce platforms on the market. It enables brands to create personalized messages for their customers, manage reviews, and build customer loyalty. Here's our feedback on the solution based on a few use cases from our e-commerce projects.
Yotpo: A Comprehensive and Essential Automated Marketing Platform
Customer engagement, loyalty, and optimizing the shopping experience are key priorities for merchants. That's why most of them choose specialized marketing automation services like Yotpo, Klaviyo, or Brevo to improve their conversion rates. These tools have become essential parts of the e-commerce ecosystem, forming new links between brands and consumers. They help drive sales, aggregate valuable data, and assess the effectiveness of marketing efforts.
Yotpo Reviews: A Powerful Review Management Tool
Like many similar services, Yotpo enables brands to collect post-purchase reviews. However, Yotpo stands out as one of the few platforms that puts a strong emphasis on the authenticity and quality of reviews. It even encourages merchants not to filter published reviews, even if some are negative. At Yotpo, transparency is a core value that helps build long-term, trust-based relationships with customers.
Review collection can be triggered by customizable emails or SMS based on scenarios defined by the merchant (e.g., number of orders, product purchase date, sales channel, etc.).
A practical example of delayed review requests: A customer buys a water bottle and a ski jacket in the same order placed in April. The review request for the water bottle is sent 5 days after delivery, while the request for the ski jacket is sent several months later—at a time when the customer is more likely to provide relevant feedback after actually using the product.
The real strength of Yotpo lies in how this feedback is leveraged to provide merchants with valuable insights about their products and customer satisfaction. Reviews can be categorized by topic, moderation can be automated, and display on the site can be influenced by relevance and quality.
Migrating to Yotpo Reviews
Want to transfer your product reviews from an existing platform, or from Google or Amazon, to Yotpo Reviews? It's possible! Unlike many review tools, Yotpo Reviews offers a fully customizable migration process, allowing you to seamlessly import reviews from other platforms—so you don't lose the work your brand has already done in collecting them.
Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals: Driving Customer Loyalty and Re-Engagement
Today, many merchants face limitations in customer acquisition, relying heavily on the same levers as their competitors: paid search (SEA), SEO, and discount pricing. While this approach may be effective in the short term, it has long-term drawbacks: weakening of the business model, customer volatility, and a reliance on promotional periods.
Creating value in the brand-customer relationship is a long-term challenge. Setting up a loyalty program aims to rebuild this relationship based on more meaningful drivers than discounts—offering bonuses, mystery gifts, flash sales, exclusive access, and consistently rewarding purchases and customer engagement.
Several of our clients, including cosmetics brand Mavala and sportswear brand Horse Pilot, have been won over by Yotpo’s loyalty program. They can create personalized events for specific customer segments and reward them through point systems, free products, or coupons. Yotpo offers pre-built loyalty program templates as well as full design flexibility.
Just like with Yotpo Reviews, the analytics layer of Yotpo Loyalty & Referrals is one of its major strengths. It provides a wealth of insights, enabling brands to measure the ROI of their campaigns and understand customer engagement levels in detail.
