UGC

Collect, manage, and showcase user-generated content across your marketing channels.

User-generated content (UGC) is content created by your customers and community. Cevoid's UGC module lets you collect this content alongside your own brand content and showcase it across your website and marketing channels.

UGC needs an active UGC plan. Email widgets and DPA feeds are extended features, part of the UGC Extended add-on.

This guide introduces the core concepts and workflows of Cevoid's UGC module. To set up UGC from a new workspace to a gallery on your store, see Setup checklist.

The UGC workflow

Cevoid's UGC workflow follows three phases: collect content from multiple sources, manage it in your Library, and showcase it across your channels.

UGC workflow

Collect

Collect photos and videos from social media, direct uploads, and your own brand feeds. Once collected, content becomes posts in your workspace that are ready to enhance and showcase. Post-purchase and thank you emails ask customers for photos after a purchase and thank customers who upload. To bring over posts from another UGC platform, see Import and export UGC.

  • UGC from Instagram

    Access posts your brand is tagged or mentioned in, plus content from the hashtags you track.

  • Upload forms

    Invite customers to upload content directly through your website or Cevoid-hosted upload pages.

  • Loyalty program

    Reward customers for submitting photos and videos.

  • Instagram feed sync

    Sync posts from your brand's Instagram accounts to use alongside customer content.

  • TikTok feed sync

    Sync posts from your brand's TikTok accounts to feature video content.

  • Platform uploads

    Upload content directly to your workspace and use it alongside your UGC.

Manage

New content enters your Inbox as posts. From there, review and approve content, add shoppable product tags, and organize with labels before publishing to your widgets.

  • Library & Inbox

    Review posts before they go live, filter and search your content, and manage everything your team has collected.

  • Posts

    Add shoppable product tags with hotspots, categorize content with labels, and enhance your posts.

Showcase

Display approved posts in shoppable widgets on your website, in emails, and across your ad campaigns. Galleries and dynamic email widgets automatically update with your latest approved content that matches their filters. Set each gallery's layout and style in Gallery design. When a visitor clicks a post in a gallery or card, it can open in the UGC popup.

  • Galleries

    Multi-post shoppable widgets that showcase your content in customizable layouts on any page.

  • Cards

    Single-post shoppable widgets for featuring standout content anywhere on your site.

  • Email widgets

    Add shoppable UGC to your email campaigns, hand-picked or updated automatically.

  • DPA feeds

    Populate your dynamic product ad feeds with UGC.

Localization and accessibility

Cevoid automatically handles localization and accessibility so your content works for every visitor.

Widgets adapt to each market: they translate captions and display the correct product names, prices, and links from your product catalog. Accessibility features such as alt text, video captions, and descriptions are generated automatically and translated for each market.
