How do buyers leave ratings?
Hey everyone, new seller here! 👋 I've noticed that many products on Amazon have thousands of ratings but far fewer written reviews. It makes sense—leaving a quick star rating should be much easier than writing a full review.
But here's what I don't get: How do buyers leave just a rating without typing a review? 🤔 When I check my own orders as a buyer, I only see options to write a product review, seller review, or leave feedback—but no option to simply tap the stars and submit a rating.
Is this an automatic feature? Or is there a way to enable quick ratings for my products? Or am I at a disadvantage because I'm a new seller and Amazon no longer offers the option to just leave a rating. Would really appreciate any insights—thanks in advance!

Welcome to the Forums! You should also check out our New Seller Community Group too (under Groups tab).
As a buyer:

- Select Write a product review in the Customer Reviews section.
- Select a Star Rating.
- A green check mark shows for successfully submitted ratings.
- Optionally, add text, photos, or videos and select Submit.
