Customer reviews are one of the most powerful ways to build trust and improve conversion rates , especially in financial services, where credibility and transparency matter most.
Research shows that 93% of consumers say online reviews influence their purchasing decisions, and displaying positive reviews can increase conversion rates by up to 270%.
On the Good Money Guide, verified customer reviews not only strengthen your brand’s reputation but also help potential clients make informed choices about where to invest, trade, or transfer money.
The simplest way to get reviews is to ask.
Send a short, polite email to your existing customers after they’ve opened an account or used your service, thanking them for choosing your platform and including a direct link to your review page on Good Money Guide. Timing is key, reaching out soon after a positive customer interaction increases response rates significantly. You can also include review links in your email newsletters, post-transaction messages, or client satisfaction surveys, using a call-to-action such as
“Tell us what you think on Good Money Guide, it only takes a minute!”
Social Media
Share posts on LinkedIn, X, or Facebook encouraging customers to share their experiences. Highlight positive testimonials in your marketing, showing that real clients rate your platform highly helps new users convert faster and with more confidence.
Website Links
To maximise visibility, add review prompts across your website and social media channels. For example, include a “Leave a Review” button in your account dashboard or footer.
On average, products with more than five recent positive reviews see click-to-account-opening rates double compared to those with no reviews. By actively encouraging and showcasing feedback on Good Money Guide, you turn satisfied clients into your best advocates, driving both trust and growth for your brand.
