According to Ecommerce News, more than half of Germans use customer reviews to help them make a buying decision. Youngsters specifically rely on the experiences that other buyers had with a certain product.

56% of Germans consider reviews as an important decision-making help while making a purchase.

Among 1,024 Germans surveyed, 62% of female online shoppers rely on ratings, compared to 50% of male online shoppers.

66% of respondents aged 16 to 29 years and 61% of 30-49-year-olds unveil they read customer reviews online before buying. As to 50-64-year-olds, it’s 49% who do this and in the age group 65 years, only 39% read customer reviews.

Besides customer reviews, shoppers also rely on price comparison websites. The survey says that 48% of Germans use them before buying something online, while 41% rely on tips given by friends or family. 36% trust test reports from TV, online or print media, whereas only 24% use the retailers’ websites.

Independent reviews can be a good decision-making aid before buying online. This applies to both services as goods: security and trust are essential for customers of online shops, and these reviews make a significant contribution to one’s trust in online retail
