Trust badges for Shopify that look and feel legitimate go a long way to giving your future customers more confidence in your store. And animated ones? They go even further since they’re harder to copy and catch your attention.
A study from Econsultancy / Toluna found 48% of respondents look for trustmarks when deciding whether or not to trust an unknown retailer.
The good news is that it’s super easy to add trust badges to Shopify if you don’t have them already. All it takes is a little copy and pasting.
You have a short time to gain the trust of visitors who land on your store and convince them to purchase something. Let’s make the most of it!
To use these badges, just copy and paste the code to wherever you want to use them. Best of all? They’re completely free, and won’t slow your store down.
Shopify Light Badge:
Your Shopify store comes with a 256-bit SSL certificate, encrypting the traffic between your store and your customers. This provides a high level of security for your visitor’s data. Why not show it off with this animated trust seal?

Shopify Dark Badge:
Same as the light badge, but a less colourful version. While less eye-catching, a dark version may fit better with your store’s aesthetic. Use the dark Shopify trust seal if you’re looking for a more sleek look.
