What is the Vertical Marquee widget?

The Vertical Marquee shows two columns of review cards that scroll continuously up and down, with soft fade masks at the top and bottom. It turns a narrow area into a living wall of feedback.

  • Dual-column vertical scrolling stream.

  • Fade masks at the top and bottom for a smooth, premium look.

  • Short review cards with stars and reviewer name.

Best use cases

  • Side-by-side hero layouts: put text on the left and the review stream on the right.

  • Tall sections: use up vertical space with moving proof.

  • Feature pages: show customer love next to a product description.

  • Brands with lots of reviews: show variety without a long page.

How it helps your business

  • Great for two-column pages: it fills the empty side of a split layout.

  • Feels alive: constant motion makes your brand look active and popular.

  • Shows many voices: visitors see lots of different customers at once.

  • Keeps focus: soft fading edges blend smoothly into your page background.

Where to place it

  • Right-hand side of your homepage hero.

  • Beside a features or pricing section.

  • In a tall banner on a landing page.

How to set it up

  1. Open Review Widgets and choose Vertical Marquee.

  2. Click Get Started or Create New Widget.

  3. Select your review sources in Sources.

  4. Keep the cards short in the Post tab.

  5. Choose colours that match your page in the Style tab and click Save.

  6. Click Install and paste the iframe code into a tall section of your page.

Customization tips

  • Give the iframe a tall height, for example 600 to 700 pixels.

  • Use a background colour in your page that matches the fading edges.

  • Combine with a headline and button on the opposite side for a strong hero.

Is it better than the Horizontal Marquee?
