Hi Barnabas!
I needed some time to digest your request. Sorry for the delay, I did see your email.
Google pulls store ratings from its own data and from supported review partners like Trustpilot—but this happens automatically via a data feed between Trustpilot and Google, not through Schema.org markup on your site. I don’t think the “Connected Social Pages” (sameAs) field is the correct mechanism for this.
Still, you can enter any link to those fields, including that of TrustPilot. I have plans to remove the named fields and make them ambiguous across platforms, allowing you to add as many as you’d like. Until then, you can use the SoundCloud input field (or any other); it won’t be processed any differently than if it had a dedicated field.
Hello Sybre,
Thank you for your reply. I’ve added the trustpilot link as you suggested in one of the empty Social Pages field. I don’t know if it will work or not. Problably not but it doesn’t hurt to be there.

Merry Christmas
For anyone reading this,
After speaking to Google about this they replied
In order to display the Store Ratings, the business should have a sufficient amount of reviews. The number of reviews may vary from business to business but most online stores are able to obtain a rating after collecting at least 100 unique reviews within the last 5 years in your target country of sale.
