Trust badges are used throughout the theme and are normally included within the demo data. If you did not add the demo data, and want to include these manually, this is how you do it.
Update: December 2022.
The trust badges provided in the demo data have been updated to use new DIY badges. The previous demo image included screenshots of seals from third parties including TRUSTe and Google Trusted Store.These were included for demonstration purposes only and were not intended to be used on live stores. If you wish to use trust badges from a third party vendor it’s important to understand you first have to purchase them from the relevant vendor.
All demo data within Shoptimizer is purely placeholder content to demonstrate how we recommend you set up your eCommerce store for optimal conversion optimization, intended to be replaced with your own preferred content.
There has been some very interesting research conducted by Baymard on the different types of trust symbols and their impact on conversion which should help inform which trust badges are right for your store.
