November 10, 2020 - COPENHAGEN, LONDON, NEW YORK - Trustpilot, a leading online reviews platform, today announced it has surpassed $100 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) in the third quarter of 2020. This is generated from the more than 19,000 businesses who subscribe to its software as a service (‘SaaS’).

“Reviews are second only to family and friends as the most trusted source of information about businesses, with 89% of consumers saying they check online reviews before making a purchase,” said Peter Mühlmann, founder and CEO of Trustpilot. “Covid has accelerated eCommerce growth by as much as 50% in some areas. I believe the need for trusted consumer reviews from a trusted source is critical for every company.”

The company has valuable partnerships and integrations with PayPal, BigCommerce, Yext, Magento, PrestaShop, Shopify, WooCommerce, Sprinklr, and Zendesk, amongst others.
