This app is designed to make collecting reviews from your customers easier than ever.
You, the business, download the app on YOUR devices. Your customer doesn't download anything.

Current BBB Review Verification Process
-
Validating the email address or phone number of reviewers.
-
Allowing the business to confirm interaction with a particular consumer.
-
Scrubbing reviews to remove any inappropriate language or personal information before the review is published.
Customer reviews submitted through the app are automatically pre-verified.
(They do not need to verify their email address to BBB.)
Device Keys
-
Device keys tie your instance of the app to your BBB profile.
-
You can have an unlimited number of device keys.
-
Six-digit alpha-numeric code is needed to use the app; this is generated by the platform.
-
You can assign a device key to each employee to track usage.
