Integration
Section Store + Judge.me.
How they compose, where each earns its place.
Two Shopify apps doing different jobs cleanly. Section Store native shopify 2.0 sections that inherit theme tokens by default. Judge.me the most-installed shopify reviews app — text + photo reviews, automated review-request flows, and schema-compliant review markup. Here's how they compose without conflicting, and where the integration genuinely earns the install.
Section Store
by BrandUp Factory
Native Shopify 2.0 sections that inherit theme tokens by default.
Judge.me
Reviews · by Judge.me
The most-installed Shopify reviews app — text + photo reviews, automated review-request flows, and Schema-compliant review markup.
Generous free tier, native Shopify integration, and the lowest-friction setup of any reviews app. Most Shopify Plus stores still run Judge.me.
The integration angle
How Section Store + Judge.me compose.
Section Store renders the storefront UX for reviews; Judge.me captures and stores them. The clean division: Judge.me is the database + email-request engine, Section Store is the rendering layer that lets you decide which reviews surface where on the PDP, collection page, or homepage. Default Judge.me widgets are functional but visually generic — Section Store lets you display the same reviews in your brand language, with theme-token inheritance.
Concrete use cases

Comparison-table section with review-driven proof
For multi-product comparison, embed star ratings from Judge.me alongside spec comparisons. Reviews-as-routing-signal pattern.
