A lesson by Martin Hickey.
Founded in 2007, Trustpilot is an online review platform where consumers can share reviews about businesses from which they’ve acquired a product or service. Trustpilot reviews help consumers shop with confidence while delivering insights to businesses so they can improve the experiences they offer. Trustpilot’s mission is to create an independent currency of trust while bringing consumers and businesses closer together.
With 120M+ reviews along with a ranking in the top one percent of most popular websites by Alexa, Trustpilot is one of the leading digital review platforms in the world.
