Invite honest feedback without incentives or a request for a particular star rating. Keep the public review option open to every customer. Templates are examples to adapt, not testimonials or evidence of customer results.

Vote breakdown
The maths, explained

How a star rating average is calculated.

Multiply each star value by the number of votes it received, add every total together, then divide by the total number of votes. So for 20 five-star votes, 10 four-star votes and 2 three-star votes: (5×20 + 4×10 + 3×2) ÷ 32 = 4.56.

5-star scale

The standard used by Google, Trustpilot, app stores and most review platforms. Ratings run from 1 to 5.

10-star scale

Used by some review sites and survey tools for finer granularity — 1 to 10 instead of 1 to 5. Toggle above to switch.

Weighted, not counted

A rating isn't "3 stars out of 5 reviews" — it's a weighted average across every vote, which is why one bad review among hundreds barely moves the needle.

Questions

Everything you might be wondering.

How is a star rating average calculated? +
Multiply each star value by how many votes it received, add those totals together, then divide by the total number of votes. For example: (5×20 + 4×10 + 3×2)/32 gives the average rating.
What's the difference between a 5-star and 10-star rating scale? +
A 5-star scale (used by Google, most review platforms and app stores) rates from 1 to 5. A 10-star scale rates from 1 to 10 for finer granularity. This calculator supports both — just toggle at the top.
Can I use this for Google reviews specifically? +
Yes, but if you want to explore how an assumed future review average could affect your current rating, our dedicated Google Review Calculator does that maths for you directly.
