Customer reviews are one of the most valuable forms of user-generated content (UGC), helping shoppers validate product quality and make confident purchasing decisions. Instead of displaying reviews in traditional grids or static sliders, a UGC marquee presents customer feedback in a continuously scrolling format that keeps social proof visible across your store. This modern layout allows you to showcase more reviews while creating an engaging and premium browsing experience.
With ProofWP, you can transform your WooCommerce product reviews into a dynamic UGC marquee featuring customer ratings, review content, photos, and videos. The auto-scrolling marquee layout continuously highlights authentic customer experiences, making it ideal for homepages, product pages, collection pages, landing pages, and sales funnels.
In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to add a Product Reviews UGC Marquee in WooCommerce, customize its design and scrolling behavior, and showcase customer-generated content in a way that strengthens trust, increases engagement, and improves conversions.
