One of the most crucial aspects of Fiverr success is maintaining a strong seller rating. However, many freelancers face a common issue—their ratings or reviews are not showing up!

1. How Does Fiverr’s Rating System Work?

The Fiverr rating system is based on buyer reviews and seller feedback. Here's how it works:

• After an order is completed, both the buyer and seller can leave a review.
• Reviews are double-blind, meaning neither party can see the review until both have submitted feedback (or until the review period expires).
• Ratings affect seller levels, making them critical for success.

If your Fiverr rating is missing, check if both you and the buyer left reviews!

2. If a Buyer Leaves a Review but You Don’t, Will It Show?

Many sellers wonder:
"If a buyer gives a review on my Fiverr account but I don’t review them back, will it appear?"

•  Yes, it will—but only after the 10-day review period ends.
•  If you leave a review, the buyer’s review becomes visible immediately.
•  If you don’t review, the system automatically posts the buyer’s feedback after the waiting period.

Tip: Always leave a review to ensure your Fiverr buyer rating updates instantly!

3. Why Are My Ratings Not Showing Up?

Your Fiverr rate may not appear due to several reasons:

1. Review Period Not Completed: The review may still be in the double-blind phase.
2. Buyer Didn’t Leave Feedback: Some buyers choose not to rate orders.
3. Fiverr Review System Delay: Sometimes, it takes a few hours for ratings to update.
4. Violation of Fiverr’s Policies: If a review violates Fiverr’s guidelines, it may be removed.
5. Bug or Glitch: Rarely, technical issues can cause delays in Fiverr reviews for buyer or seller accounts.

If your reviews are still missing after 48 hours, contact Fiverr support!

4. Fiverr Not Showing Reviews from Buyers?

Here’s what to check if Fiverr buyer reviews are not appearing:

• Did the buyer leave a review? If not, your rating won’t change.
• Did you leave a review? If not, you might have to wait 10 days.
• Was the review removed? Fiverr can delete reviews if they violate policies.
• Are you using a Fiverr new account? New profiles might take time to display reviews.

Tip: Politely ask your buyers to leave a best buyer review to build credibility!

5. Why Do Some Fiverr Gigs Have No Ratings?

If your gig has no rating, consider these possibilities:

• New Gig: Freshly created gigs take time to accumulate ratings.
• Low Orders: If no one has purchased your gig, there won’t be reviews.
• Hidden or Private Reviews: Fiverr sometimes hides feedback for policy violations.

Solution: Deliver high-quality work, ask for feedback, and keep your response rate high to boost your Fiverr business account reputation.

6. How to Ensure Your Ratings Appear?

•  Always leave a review for buyers—it speeds up visibility.
•  Deliver top-quality work to encourage buyer reviews.
•  Avoid violating Fiverr’s review policies.
•  If reviews are missing after 48 hours, contact Fiverr support.

Final Thoughts

•  Your Fiverr rating is essential for growing your freelancing business.
•  If your rating isn’t showing up, it may be due to review delays, buyer inaction, or system issues.
•  To avoid missing reviews, always rate buyers and encourage feedback.
•  If all else fails, reach out to Fiverr’s support team to resolve the issue.
