Best places to show testimonials on Thinkific
Placing testimonials at the right moments helps learners move from interest to enrolment.
Course landing pages
Course landing pages are where most enrolment decisions happen. Testimonials that highlight student transformations, results, or learning outcomes help visitors imagine their own success. This reduces uncertainty and positions your course as a proven solution rather than a risky purchase.
Sales pages
Sales pages often explain course value in detail. Testimonials placed near pricing sections or enrol buttons reinforce key promises. When learners see feedback from students with similar goals, it increases perceived value and encourages them to enrol.
Checkout pages
Checkout is the final decision point. Even motivated learners can hesitate before payment. A short testimonial near the checkout button reassures them that others enrolled and benefited, reducing last-minute drop-offs.
Membership and bundle pages
For memberships or course bundles, testimonials validate long-term commitment. Feedback from ongoing students helps prospects feel comfortable joining a program that requires continued engagement and investment.
