The Media Reminder Email helps you collect more photo and video reviews by prompting customers to submit media if they haven’t done so initially. This increases shopper engagement and provides valuable social proof right where it matters most.
In this article, you’ll learn how it works, how to enable it, and how to customize it to match your brand.
How it works
When a customer submits a text-only review (without a photo or video), Judge.me automatically sends a media reminder email prompting them to update their review with media.
You can customize:
When the reminder is sent (e.g., after 3 days)
Who receives it (based on star rating or blacklist)
What the email says (template)
Reviewers who click the email will be redirected to a dedicated media submission page, where they can easily upload their photos or videos without needing to resubmit their review.
Here’s an example of the submission page:

To enable the media reminder emails:
From your Judge.me admin, go to Settings > Email templates > Media reminder.
