Did you know Google can label some of the reviews in the product reviews section as "incentivized"? I am not sure I've seen this before, have you?
This was spotted by Gagan Ghotra who shared a screenshot of this on X - you can see it yourself in action on this product listing:
Are they labeled "incentivized" because they come from the retailers site or because of the way they were inputted or both? I am not sure:

Anyone have more details on this label?
Forum discussion at X.
This specific brand is exclusively mentioned that they are rewarding points. I think that's something which Google is looking at Or probably there is more to? But what if they remove this label from their pages - will Google going to drop label from listing 🤔🤔 pic.twitter.com/zg0iZT1lkM
