Comparison

# The Feefo Alternative for Stripe Businesses

A Feefo alternative for Stripe businesses. Both verify purchases. The difference is the source: the merchant's own feed, or the charge record in Stripe.

## Signed Reviews vs Feefo

Feefo is the closest positioning competitor to Signed Reviews, both platforms emphasize verified, invitation-only reviews. But the verification source is fundamentally different: Feefo trusts the merchant's transaction feed; Signed Reviews trusts Stripe. Here's how they compare across every dimension that matters.

Feefo is in the same tier as [eKomi](https://signedreviews.com/vs/ekomi/): verification runs against a transaction feed the merchant supplies, so the review is only as trustworthy as the feed.

| Capability | Signed Reviews | Feefo |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Verification source | Stripe, an independent payment processor. Every review is tied to a charge record that Stripe reports. | Merchant transaction feed, the merchant provides Feefo with a log of transactions, which Feefo uses to verify. The merchant is both the subject of the review and the source of the verification data. |
| Fake review prevention | Structural, no Stripe charge = no invitation = no review. Non-customers cannot post; faking one requires a real Stripe charge with real fees. | Closed/invitation-only, only invited customers can review, but verification depends on the merchant's own transaction data. |
| Integration setup | One-click Stripe OAuth. No code, no feed configuration, no manual data upload. Works immediately. | Requires the merchant to integrate a transaction feed, more setup overhead for the same verification concept. |
| Cryptographic proof | Every review is cryptographically signed at submission. Tamper-evident, and checkable on its public verification page. | No cryptographic signing. Reviews are database records with no external verifiability. |
| Refund handling | Automatic. A refund check every 6 hours hides reviews on fully refunded or disputed charges. No merchant action required. | Depends on the merchant updating their transaction feed with refund status. |
| Stripe integration | Native, built exclusively for Stripe. One-click, minimal permissions, zero maintenance. | No native Stripe integration. Works through a generic transaction feed API. |
| Pricing model | Free plan + paid plans from $29/mo (Starter) to $199/mo (Scale). Transparent, per-invitation caps. | Custom pricing, typically £99–£399/month for SMB tiers. Enterprise pricing is opaque. |
| Google Seller Ratings | Planned, on the roadmap for Q4 2026. | Yes, Feefo is a Google Review Partner and feeds into Google Seller Ratings. |
| Platform maturity | Early stage, launched 2026, building domain authority and customer base. | Established, founded 2010, strong UK presence, mature enterprise offering. |
| Review ownership | Business owns the reviews. Signed Reviews is the processor. Exportable, portable. | Business owns the reviews. Feefo's model is also merchant-owned reviews. |

## When to choose Signed Reviews

If you process payments through Stripe and want the strongest possible verification, checked against the payment processor's charge record rather than a merchant-supplied feed, Signed Reviews is the answer. The one-click setup and automatic refund handling make it lower-friction than Feefo, and the cryptographic signing adds a layer of proof Feefo doesn't offer.

## When Feefo may be a better fit

If you need Google Seller Ratings today, Feefo's Google Review Partner status is a concrete advantage. If you don't process payments through Stripe, or if you need a mature, enterprise-grade platform with a long track record in the UK and EU, Feefo's 15-year history and deep integration ecosystem may outweigh the verification-method difference.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is Feefo legitimate?

Yes. Feefo is a legitimate, established review platform with a large customer base. But legitimacy is a different question from verification strength: Feefo's invitation-only reviews are matched to a transaction feed the merchant supplies. The merchant is both the subject of the reviews and the source of the verification data, so nothing is independently confirmed.

### Does Feefo verify purchases?

Not independently. Feefo's "verified" label means the review was matched to data the merchant supplied, not that a neutral third party confirmed a payment. Signed Reviews takes the opposite approach: a review can only exist if it matches a completed charge in the business's Stripe account.

### Is Signed Reviews better than Feefo?

For verification strength, yes. Signed Reviews is processor-attested by construction, while Feefo verifies against merchant-supplied data. Feefo's advantages are scale, maturity, and feature breadth. If your priority is provably authentic reviews from confirmed customers, Signed Reviews is the structurally stronger choice.
