Review Guidelines

Verifio only works if reviews are honest and fair — to the shopper and the shop. These rules apply to every review. Break them and the review may be removed.

Write from real experience

Only review a shop you actually ordered from. Every Verifio review is tied to a verified, delivered order — reviews about something you didn’t buy will be removed.

Be specific and honest

Describe what happened: the product, the delivery, the service. Honest criticism is welcome. Exaggeration, made-up claims, or reviews written to manipulate a score are not.

Keep it clean and legal

No hate speech, harassment, threats, discrimination, or illegal content. Keep language civil even when you’re unhappy.

No personal or private data

Don’t include anyone’s full name, address, phone number, order numbers, or other identifying details — yours or a staff member’s.

Stay on topic

Review the shop and your purchase. Not the courier, not politics, not unrelated companies. Off-topic content will be removed.

No conflicts of interest

Don’t review your own business or a competitor. Don’t review in exchange for payment, discounts, or free products. Incentivised reviews undermine the whole system.

One experience, one review

Post a single review per order. Had a new experience? Update your existing review rather than stacking duplicates.

Flagging & moderation

Shops can flag a review that breaks these rules, but they can’t remove it themselves — Verifio decides, and the queue is auditable. Shoppers can report a review too. See the methodology for how this fits the wider scoring model.
