Trust Badges

Trust Badges is a free WordPress plugin that displays payment icons, security seals and guarantee badges on your product, cart and footer areas. It works with WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads, and on any WordPress site through a shortcode.

Shoppers look for familiar payment logos and reassurance signals before they hand over card details. Trust Badges lets you place those signals exactly where the hesitation happens — under the add-to-cart button, on the cart page, or in the footer — without writing any code or uploading image files.

What’s New in 1.2.0

Version 1.2.0 is a substantial security, performance and correctness release. Highlights:

• Faster front end. The badge manifest is now parsed once per request instead of once per badge, and results are cached. Badge rendering went from roughly 1 ms per badge to effectively zero.
• Lighter admin. The settings screen bundle is minified and no longer ships a source map — about 3 MB less to download.
• Fixed: WooCommerce Cart and Checkout blocks. A leftover filter in earlier versions disabled WooCommerce’s Cart and Checkout blocks across the whole site. It has been removed.
• Fixed: monochrome badge styles. The “mono” and “mono-card” styles now render correctly on every supported WordPress version; their CSS mask was previously being stripped before output.
• Shortcodes now accept named groups too. [trust_badges id="1"] and a bare [trust_badges] behave exactly as before; [trust_badges id="footer"] and other named groups now work as well, where previously they rendered nothing.
• Fixed: settings changes appear immediately instead of after a one-hour cache delay.
• Security. Removed an unauthenticated REST endpoint that exposed badge configuration to anonymous visitors, and hardened input validation throughout.
