Prerequisites

Your organization must have a Yotpo Premium account to set up this integration.

How does Yotpo work with Kustomer?

Two Yotpo features can integrate with Kustomer: Yotpo Reviews and Yotpo Questions & Answers.

Yotpo Reviews

When customers buy an item, Yotpo sends them an email to rate and review it. Responses from these emails are forwarded to Kustomer, creating custom objects on the Kustomer timeline. The forwarded email will automatically be marked done by the Kustomer workflow.

Note: If any custom fields are required to mark a conversation done, this must be updated in the workflow.


Yotpo Questions & Answers

Some Yotpo users also enable a Questions & Answers feature that allows customers to ask questions regarding a specific product. The questions will be directed to the owner and to customers who had previously purchased the product. If your organization utilizes this Yotpo feature, these Q&A interactions are threaded as a conversation in the Kustomer timeline.

Note: While Kustomer does not directly support integrations for Yotpo’s Loyalty Program, you can explore implementing loyalty and referrals on a custom or generic e-commerce platform. For detailed guidance, refer to this Yotpo article: Implementing Loyalty & Referrals on a Custom or Generic E-commerce Platform.

Install the Yotpo app

To integrate Yotpo with Kustomer, install the Yotpo app from within the Kustomer App Directory.

  1. Go to Apps, search for Yotpo in the App Directory, and then select Install.
  2. Once the installation is complete, select Click to Copy in the table at the bottom of the page to copy the email hook URL to your clipboard. You'll need this endpoint hook URL on the Yotpo site in the next step of the setup process.

Set up forwarding in Yotpo

Then, log in on the Yotpo site to connect your emails to the Kustomer API.

  1. Log in as an administrator in Yotpo, and go to Moderation > Help Desk.
  2. For the Help Desk Email, enter the Email Hook address copied from the Kustomer site. This email address will be in the format: hashedvalue@kustomerapp.com
  3. Select Send Test and enter a testing email address to ensure proper configuration.
  4. In the Help Desk Integration Settings under Auto-Escalation, select the Auto-escalate reviews at or below the star rating option. When this is turned on, any review under the specified threshold will be ingested into Kustomer.
  5. When you're ready to enable this integration, toggle on Activate Help Desk Integration.

Note: If reviews aren't being sent to Kustomer, make sure you've checked the Auto-escalate reviews at or below the star rating setting as shown below. Also, if your organization uses Yotpo Questions, turn on the Auto-escalate shoppers' questions setting as well.

FAQ

Q: How many Yotpo stores does this integration support?

A: Since Yotpo's forwarded email does not provide unique store information, Kustomer can only ingest reviews for one Yotpo store at this time.
