14 answers

What is Taste & Rate?

Taste & Rate is the first platform in Bosnia and Herzegovina for reviews of tourism, food and local products. We help you find hotels, restaurants, cafés, places to stay, wineries and local products worth your time and money, through honest ratings and first-hand stories.

Is the platform free to use?

Yes, completely free. Searching, reading reviews and creating a user profile cost nothing. Paid packages are only for businesses that want to promote their places or products.

How can I write a review?

Find the place or product you want to rate on the platform and click “Write a review”. Your review must be based on your own real experience. All reviews are moderated within 48 hours. Please note: you need to give your email address when writing a review. It is used for only two purposes: sending a newsletter with our latest recommendations and offers, and checking a review’s accuracy if needed. Your address will never be published or shared with third parties. By submitting, you agree to these terms, and you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in the email or by writing to tasteandrate11@gmail.com.

Can I trust the reviews on Taste & Rate?

We work hard to make sure every opinion is authentic. User reviews are moderated, and fake or spam reviews are removed. Our editorial reviews are always clearly labelled and reflect the team’s honest opinion, regardless of any business relationship with the place.

What if I notice a fake or offensive review?

Please report it to tasteandrate11@gmail.com with the subject “Content report”. Every report is reviewed within 5 working days.

Do you have an app?

We are currently developing a mobile app. Follow us on social media and sign up for the newsletter to be the first to know when it is available.

How can I suggest a new place or product for review?

Send your suggestion to tasteandrate11@gmail.com with the subject “Place suggestion”. Tell us the name, the location and why you think it deserves to be on Taste & Rate. We take every suggestion seriously.

How can I add my business to Taste & Rate?

Write to us at tasteandrate11@gmail.com with the subject “New partner”, or get in touch through the For businesses page. We reply within 2 working days and agree on all the details without complications.

Is setting up a profile free?

Yes. The basic (Starter) profile is completely free and stays free. It includes basic information, a photo gallery and user reviews. For more visibility, blog stories and social media promotion, Premium and Elite packages are available.

Can I pay to have a bad review removed?

No. No amount of money can get an authentic user review deleted or changed. Taste & Rate treats its editorial independence as a core value. You can reply to any review through your business profile.

What do I get with the Premium package?

Premium partners get a featured label and priority in search, a gallery of up to 30 photos and a video, 4 blog posts a year, sharing on our social media, a monthly report on profile visits and the “Recommended by Taste & Rate” badge. More details on the For businesses page.

How do editorial reviews work?

Our team visits and rates the place in person or tests the product. The review is published on the blog and on the business profile. Editorial reviews are clearly labelled and always reflect an honest opinion, regardless of any business relationship.

Can I control what is published about my business?

You cannot remove authentic user reviews, but you can reply to them through your profile. For editorial content we publish (blog stories, photo galleries), we always talk to you before publishing and ask for your materials and approval.

How can I update my business information?

Send the changes to tasteandrate11@gmail.com with the subject “Profile update”, with the name of the business and what needs changing. We update within 2 working days.
