Elfsight – Cashback, Rebates & Rewards

Elfsight has been a real-life saver as a web developer.The Widgets are really high quality and functional, the usage is super easy and they are always fast to load.I reached out to support a few times and they were professional and fast to reply.If you need their widgets I would suggest buying them!One thing I would love is a better panel to manage the widgets being able to limit by domain the usage.

Elfsight sells a widget for displaying Trustpilot reviews. However this widget is not permitted by Trustpilot and they will threaten to disable your account if you do not remove the widget. Had I paid yearly, this would have resulted in a loss of income.

I adore Elfsight, I am on the developer account and as such this gives me 5m views per app refreshing monthly. This is perfect for me as, aside from being a property photographer for holiday accommodation, I also build websites for many of those same properties. Lots of those use review websites such as TripAdvisor and Google Places, and as such I can offer them... for a fee, reviews feeds on a per annum basis. It is perfect. It also enhances my own website too that is based on Shopify and otherwise not possible to achieve that easily otherwise. Brill service, and community.

Great Service!For an acceptable price you get a lot of widgets, almost everything I need I get from elfsight. Sometimes their interface can be a little unstable, but the support is really good. I had a small problem with it for 2 times and both times the support replied within 24hrs and solved my problem while being really understanding and caring.All in all great service, would recommend!

The business model for this company is simple, it is a pay as you go review widget to display reviews and star rating on your website.They charge based on views, not unique visiters but views, ie page loads, so one visitor can easily take up 20 views from your allowance.This is all great for small businesses to utilise a pay and go system, however in reality it is not the case.We have the 5000 packages and noticed it depleted very fast, with our web stats showing only a few hundred-page loads we were suspicious, cancelled our subscription and contacted support who said that the views were accurate.As we removed our subscription our widget was left to the free 200 views per widget. We remooved the widget from our site entirely and installed starfish reviews system instead. We continued to get emails over the next few months explaining that we had used up our view count and asking us to upgrade, upon logging into our account we could see that some how we had people load our review widget on our web page, but yet the widget had not been installed for at least two months by this point.Before anybody threatens any legal battles, we can prove what we say here and were happy to provide this to anybody including readers of this review.Obviously, by this stage, it was clear to us, that at least with our widget, Elfsights services were making up false views in order to capitalise (in our opinion, the evidence shows this). I would not recommend their services, as their services make up false views to obtain more money from you every month.It is a scam.
