Reviews are the trust layer between buyers and sellers after an order interaction.

How review permissions work

  • Reviews are currently order-scoped only.
  • Only the buyer and seller attached to that order can review each other.
  • You cannot review yourself.
  • Each reviewer can leave only one review per order.

How review scoring works

  1. A valid review is created.
  2. The reviewed user’s aggregate rating stats are updated immediately.
  3. If the review is edited, aggregates are recalculated from rating delta.
  4. If the review is deleted, aggregates are adjusted again.

Auto-generated reviews after inactivity

Managem also backstops missing reviews in the purchase workflow:
  1. When a purchase reaches completed state, the workflow starts a review timer.
  2. Managem then waits 14 days for a review to be left manually by either the buyer and/or seller.
  3. For each order in the purchase, if buyer->seller or seller->buyer review is missing, Managem creates a default 5-star review with an automatic message.
This ensures both parties are not left without reciprocal feedback when one side does not submit a review in time.
