The PrestaShop integration for FeedbackExpress allows you to request feedback for the orders you received from your PrestaShop customers.

This help file will show you how you can easily start automating PrestaShop feedback requests in your FeedbackExpress account.

Before you start

 
  • You’ll need an Admin login to FeedbackExpress. If you don’t have an Admin login, you can request one from an Admin user within your business.

  • You'll need a PrestaShop account. To find out more about this, click here.


01 How does it work?

The PrestaShop Feedback integration allows you to set up FeedbackExpress to automatically request reviews on PrestaShop when a customer purchases from your business. All you need to do is set up rules that determine when and under what circumstances the feedback request is sent, and you'll write the feedback message that will be sent to your customer. Then FeedbackExpress does the rest. Easy!

When your customers respond to the feedback request and write a review, the review is left on your PrestaShop webstore.
