Later Influence™ (formerly Mavrck)’s PowerReviews integration empowers you to collect and syndicate ratings and reviews for your entire product catalog using the PowerReviews Write API.

Once influencers submit product reviews through the Later Influence platform, they can be easily managed and syndicated through the PowerReviews dashboard to distribute across marketing and e-commerce channels.

Integration Setup

1. Notify your PowerReviews representative that you are partnering with Later Influence and request to receive your Write API keys.
   • You should be provided with the following pieces of information:
     • App key
     • Merchant group ID
     • Merchant ID
     • Locale
2. Once you receive the API keys, send them to your Later Influence Implementation Manager. It will then take two business days for the Later Influence team to set up the integration.

Multiple PowerReviews apps can be connected with one instance in Later Influence. An instance can be connected to PowerReviews and Bazaarvoice simultaneously.
