Note: To protect customers’ privacy, AliExpress censors reviewers' names with stars (C****s) or by replacing the name with "Shopper".
Reviews imported using the AliExpress import method will show reviewers’ names formatted to match AliExpress’ customer privacy policy by displaying the uncensored letters of the reviewer’s name as matching our “First initial, last initial (J. S.)” format setting:

Troubleshooting tips
In some cases where the AliExpress Import process doesn't go as planned, there are multiple actions you can take to ensure the import process works as expected:
- When importing reviews from your AliExpress product page, make sure to use the Aliexpress.com domain and not a variant of the site based on your locale (.de/.fr/.uk, etc.).
- We recommend using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox when using the Loox AliExpress importer.
- If you followed the steps above and the import process still failed, contact our support team at [email protected] and send us the complete HTML version of your AliExpress Product page. We would be more than happy to help you import your reviews from our back end!
To create a complete HTML file of your page:
- On your AliExpress product page, right-click on the page.
- Click "Save as":
- Open the "Format" dropdown menu, and select "Webpage, Complete":
