When shopping online, it’s common to come across security badges. These badges often make me more inclined to purchase from a small online store. I was wondering if there is an app to add these badges to a Shopify store?

Hi @henryzs

This is Kate from PageFly - Landing page builder, I’d like to suggest this idea:

Yes, there are several apps available on the Shopify App Store that can add security badges to your store. Some of the popular ones are:

Trust Badges Bear

Avada Trust Badge

ShopClimb ‑ Trust Badges

These are just a few examples of the security badge apps available on the Shopify App Store. You can browse through the app store to find the best app for your store’s needs.

Hi @henryzs ,

That’s a great question! Trust badges are a powerful tool to make your website more trustworthy, and they genuinely aid potential customers overcome their doubts about buying online.

Is there a particular area on the website where you would like this badge to display? There are different trust badges, but they can be placed into five main categories.

  • Safe Checkout Badge
    This type of trust badge indicates that the checkout process on your site is safe and secure, that the information shared is encrypted, and that your customers’ identity or credit card information will not be stolen. Instilling trust in your business will help tremendously with your overall conversions.

  • Accepted Payment Badges
    Nothing instills confidence more than seeing a brand that you recognize. That’s precisely what these trust badges are meant to do. Having the Visa, Mastercard, or PayPal badges listed as accepted payment options can boost the level of trust in your website.

  • Third-Party Endorsements
    Third-party endorsements can help instill trust in your customers by showing them that you have credibility.

  • Money-Back Guarantee Badges
    The idea is that this badge helps to eliminate fear and the perceived risk of buying online, which is one of the most significant factors in conversion rate problems.

  • Free Shipping and Returns Badge
    This badge makes it known that you offer free shipping and returns through your online store. It can also instill trust and a feeling of safety in your customers by highlighting your store policy and excellent customer service.

No matter which category you go for, the easiest way to incorporate these into your website is by using one of the apps from our App Store. For example, an app called Trust Me is completely free to use. Also, the Ultimate Trust Badges app is available and free to install and use.

Let me know what you think of these or if you found any other that works better.
