Reviews power your Fiverr growth—more trust, higher search visibility, and better conversions. But there’s a right way to ask for feedback. In this post, I’m sharing clear, TOS-safe messaging you can send after order completion to encourage honest reviews (never manipulated, never incentivized).
Why Reviews Matter on Fiverr
- Trust & credibility: New buyers rely on recent reviews.
- Search visibility: Strong performance helps ranking.
- Better service quality: Feedback highlights what to improve.
- Repeat work: Thoughtful follow-ups bring clients back.
Fiverr TOS Reminder (What’s Allowed vs Not Allowed)
Fiverr prohibits requesting positive or 5-star reviews and offering incentives in exchange for feedback. Keep all requests neutral and honest.
✅ Allowed: “I’d appreciate your honest feedback on this order.”
🚫 Not Allowed: “Please leave a 5-star review” or “I’ll discount if you rate 5 stars.”
Template #1 — Honest Review Request (Send at Order Completion)
Hey {Buyer's Name},
It was great working with you and I want to make sure I provided the services you were expecting.
It would be super helpful if you could leave me your honest feedback at the end of this order, and let me know if there’s anything else I can improve.
Creating valuable content for your business is my top priority, and your feedback is essential.
Looking forward to working with you again soon!
Template #2 — Survey & Review Reminder (Send 1–2 Days Later)
Hey {Buyer's Name},
It was great working with you!
Just a quick reminder — Fiverr will follow up with two different surveys (public and private). Both are important for me, so even if this isn’t your first time using my services, I’d really appreciate your honest feedback on both.
Fiverr usually invites you via notification or email, and sometimes it takes a day or two to arrive.
Looking forward to working with you again in the near future!
Best Practices to Boost Your Review Rate
- Deliver slightly early when possible—buyers love proactivity.
- Overdeliver lightly: a small extra file or a quick Loom walkthrough.
- Be specific: reference the project outcome in your message.
- Follow up once only: polite, zero pressure, no spam.
- Stay inside Fiverr chat: keep comms and files on-platform.
Geo Tips (Bangladesh & Similar Markets)
- Use clear, friendly English; avoid slang or pressure.
- Time your follow-ups to the buyer’s local working hours.
- Mention bilingual value (English/Bengali) when relevant.

FAQs
Can I ask buyers for feedback on Fiverr?
Yes—ask for honest feedback only. Do not ask for 5 stars or offer incentives.
How do I remind a client to leave a review?
Send one polite reminder 1–2 days after completion (use the survey template above). Avoid multiple nudges.
What happens if I ask for a positive review?
It violates Fiverr’s Terms of Service and can trigger warnings or account restrictions.
Do private surveys affect my account?
Yes. Fiverr’s private survey impacts your internal metrics. Treat both public and private surveys seriously.
