How to Remove “Powered by WeWidget” from Your Reviews Widget

Understand why branding appears, and how to get a completely clean, unbranded widget that looks like a native part of your site.

May 2026 · 4 min read

You have embedded your Google reviews on your website. The widget looks great. But you notice a small text link at the bottom: “Powered by WeWidget.”

Some businesses love it — it shows where their widget comes from. Others prefer a completely clean, unbranded look that makes the reviews feel like a native part of their site. If you are in the second camp, this guide is for you.

Why “Powered by WeWidget” appears

The “Powered by WeWidget” link appears on the Starter plan (£5/month). It is a small, text-based attribution beneath your widget.

Why do we do this? Because:

  • Keeping Starter affordable. At £5/month, we need to reach new customers. The attribution helps businesses discover WeWidget through your site.
  • Transparency. We believe visitors should know where reviews come from. The attribution is honest.
  • Simple sustainability. We could charge more, but instead we ask Starter users to help us grow. It keeps pricing low.

That said, we understand it is not for everyone. If you prefer a clean widget without branding, the solution is straightforward.

Remove branding by upgrading to Pro

The Pro plan (£9/month) removes all WeWidget branding. Your widget appears completely clean — no attribution, no links, no visual clue that WeWidget powers it. Just your reviews, styled however you want.

Step-by-step: Remove branding

Step 1: Log into WeWidget

Go to wewidget.app/dashboard and sign in with your email and password.

Step 2: Go to your account settings

Click the Settings tab (or your profile name in the top right). Navigate to Billing & Plan.

Step 3: Click Upgrade to Pro

Your current plan is shown. Click Upgrade to Pro and follow the payment prompts. We accept all major credit cards.

Step 4: Done

Your plan is now Pro. Your existing embed code is updated automatically — go back to your website and refresh to see the branding removed. No code change needed.

What else can you customise with Pro?

Besides removing branding, Pro gives you full control over how your widget looks:

Colours

Match your brand. Choose your primary colour, accent colours, and background. Your widget feels like a native part of your site.

Typography

Select fonts for headings, body text, and author names. Use your brand font or any web-safe font.

Spacing and sizing

Adjust padding, margins, card heights, and star sizes. Fine-tune the widget to fit your page layout perfectly.

Advanced layouts

Choose from more widget styles (sliders, grids, mini versions) that are not available on Starter.

Is Pro worth the upgrade?

The difference is £4/month. That is about £50 per year. Here is what you get:

  • A completely unbranded widget that looks like it is part of your site
  • Full customisation — colours, fonts, spacing all match your brand
  • Professional appearance that increases trust with visitors
  • Priority support if you need help

If your website is generating leads or sales, removing branding and fully customising your reviews widget is almost certainly worth it. It makes your site look more professional and builds more trust.

Frequently asked questions

Why does WeWidget branding appear on my reviews widget?
On the Starter plan (£5/month), a small "Powered by WeWidget" link appears beneath your widget. This helps us reach businesses looking for review widgets and keeps the cost of Starter low. It is a tiny text link, not intrusive, but we understand if you prefer a clean, unbranded widget.
Does the Pro plan remove all WeWidget branding?
Yes. The Pro plan (£9/month) removes the "Powered by WeWidget" link entirely. Your widget appears completely unbranded — it looks like a native part of your website. No attribution, no ads, no distractions.
Can I remove branding without upgrading?
Not directly. Branding removal is a Pro plan feature. However, if you only want the embed for a specific page or short period, the Starter plan might work fine — the "Powered by WeWidget" link is small and typically does not impact conversions.
What else is included in the Pro plan besides branding removal?
Pro includes: unbranded widget, full color and font customisation, priority support, and advanced placement options. You get complete control over how your reviews look on your site.
If I downgrade from Pro to Starter, will branding reappear?
Yes. Branding is tied to your active plan. If you cancel Pro and drop to Starter, the "Powered by WeWidget" link will reappear on your widget. You can upgrade again anytime to remove it.
