GR Widget - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

GR Widget is a cloud-based Google Business Profile review embedding tool that lets businesses display live star ratings, review text, and reviewer names on any website using a two-line HTML snippet. No Google API key or Google account login is required for setup. Reviews are synced automatically from public Google listings on a schedule determined by plan tier: monthly on Free, bi-weekly on Site, and daily on Business and Agency plans. The embed is served from GR Widget servers as a lightweight async JavaScript snippet that does not block page rendering or affect Core Web Vitals scores. An official WordPress plugin with Gutenberg block, shortcode, and Elementor compatibility is also available. No self-hosted or on-premises deployment option is offered.

GR Widget supports 17 embed layouts, including compact rating badges, list, grid, and masonry review feeds, carousels, sliders, flyout drawers, and floating stickers. A visual builder with live preview controls colours, fonts, spacing, and review count. Higher-tier plans unlock additional capabilities: star, keyword, and reviewer filters on Site and above; Google reviewer profile photos on Site and above; review structured data (JSON-LD) on Business and Agency plans; AI-generated review summary cards on Business and above; and photos uploaded with reviews on Business and above. Each widget binds to its own Google Place ID, supporting per-location display for multi-location businesses. Domain locking prevents unauthorised embed use, and the embed contains no ad trackers or visitor fingerprinting.

Pricing is domain-based with no monthly page-view caps, meaning traffic spikes do not trigger unexpected plan upgrades. The Agency plan covers 20 domains with unlimited review displays per domain, white-label embeds, and up to 10 team seats under a single subscription. Target users include local service businesses, ecommerce brands, web designers, and agencies managing multiple client sites. GR Widget is compatible with WordPress, Wix, Shopify, Squarespace, Webflow, and any platform that accepts custom HTML. A free plan is available with no credit card required.
