Choose a category for your business
Adding your business to a category on Trustpilot makes it easier for customers to compare you with other similar businesses. It can also help you get discovered by customers searching for particular products or services.
We feature a comprehensive list of categories you can assign to your business. Categories make it easier for consumers to find your business on Trustpilot, so it's important that your categories match your business area.
You can choose one primary category - this should be the area where you do most of your business.
In addition to your primary category, you can choose up to 5 additional categories to describe activities that aren't covered by your primary business category.
If you choose not to select a category, we'll automatically select one for you. However, since you know your business better than anyone, it's in your best interest to choose your own categories and ensure they're as accurate as possible.
How to select categories
- Think about which categories best describe your business's main industry. This should be your primary category.
- Consider which categories cover the products and services that make up your business's main profit centers.
- Our categories are based on the Google Business Profile category system. If your business has a Google Business Profile account, select the same primary and additional categories as you have there. If not, no worries. Simply choose the category that fits your business area most accurately.
