Getting Started
Quickstart
Collect your first testimonial and embed it on your site in about five minutes.
This guide takes you from a fresh account to a live testimonial wall on your website. Five steps, roughly five minutes.
Note
You will need a Kudoso account. If you do not have one yet, see Creating your account first, then come back.
The five steps#
Create a campaign
From the dashboard, click New campaign, give it a name (for example "Website reviews"), and save. This creates a collection form and a shareable link for you.
Design your form
Open the campaign and use the form builder to choose what you ask for: a rating, a written quote, a video, and any custom fields. The defaults are a sensible starting point, so you can move on quickly.
Share your collection link
Copy the campaign's collection link and send it to a happy customer, or paste it into an email. They open it, record or write a testimonial, and submit. No account needed on their side.
Approve the testimonial
New submissions land in the campaign as pending. Open one, read or watch it, and click Approve. Only approved testimonials are ever shown publicly.
Embed the wall
Add the widget snippet to your site. Your approved testimonials appear instantly, styled to match your brand.
The embed snippet#
Paste this where you want the testimonial wall to appear. Replace YOUR_CAMPAIGN_ID with the ID shown on your campaign page.
html1<div data-testimonial-campaign="YOUR_CAMPAIGN_ID"></div>2<script src="https://kudoso.io/embed.js" async></script>
That is the whole loop: collect, approve, display.
