Placement ideas
Where your QR code works hardest
The best spot is wherever customers are happy and already have a moment — and their phone — at hand. A few ideas from practice:
On the front door or window
An A5 card at eye level on the way out reaches even customers who paid contactless and left quickly.
On tables & menus
In cafés and restaurants, the mini cards fit into menu holders and napkin stands.
On receipts & invoices
Staple a mini card to receipts, quotes and invoices — ideal for trades and services without a storefront.
In your email signature
Add your review link (or the QR image) under your name — every completed job becomes a review opportunity.
On packaging & bags
Drop a mini card into every bag, parcel or pizza box — your ask travels home with the customer.
In the waiting area
Practices, salons and workshops: an A5 card where people sit and scroll on their phones anyway.
On business cards & flyers
Hand the mini card over together with your business card after a good conversation or finished job.
Local SEO
How reviews lift your local Google ranking
Google’s local results weigh rating, review count, recency and your replies. A steady flow of genuine reviews is one of the strongest local SEO signals you can build — here’s how to get it.
Ask at the moment of delight
The best time to ask is right after a compliment — when the meal was great, the repair worked, the project shipped. A friendly “Would you leave us a short Google review?” converts far better than any follow-up email.
Make it effortless
Every extra step loses reviewers. A QR code at the counter, on the receipt, on the invoice or in your email signature takes customers straight to the review form — no searching, no typing.
Reply to every review
Replies show Google your profile is actively managed — and they’re read by future customers more than the reviews themselves. Thank reviewers by name and naturally mention your service and city.
Aim for a steady flow, not a spike
Ten reviews spread over ten weeks look natural and keep your profile fresh. Fifty reviews in one weekend look suspicious and can trigger Google’s filters. Make asking a routine, not a campaign.
Give your team a one-liner
Reviews happen at the counter, not in the back office. Train everyone on one simple sentence — “If you were happy today, we’d love a Google review — the QR code is right here.”
Turn negative reviews into trust
A calm, solution-oriented reply to a critical review often impresses readers more than a five-star rating. Never argue publicly — acknowledge, resolve, and invite the customer back.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Answers about the QR generator, review links and Google’s rules.
Is the QR code generator really free?
Yes — completely free, no sign-up, no watermark on your print-outs. The QR code and the PDF are generated locally in your browser; your review link is never uploaded or stored.
Where do I find my Google review link?
Sign in to your Google Business Profile at business.google.com (or search for your own business on Google while signed in) and click “Ask for reviews”. Google shows a short link like g.page/r/… — that’s the one to paste into the tool.
Does the QR code expire?
No. The QR code simply encodes your review link, so it keeps working as long as your Google Business Profile exists. You can print it once and use it for years.
Can I reward customers for leaving a review?
No — Google’s review policy prohibits offering money, discounts or gifts in exchange for reviews, and also prohibits asking only satisfied customers. Violations can get reviews removed or your profile restricted. Ask everyone, make it easy, and let the quality of your service do the convincing.
Do Google reviews really improve my local ranking?
Yes. Review count, average rating, recency and your replies all feed Google’s local ranking — especially the map pack shown for “near me” searches. Together with a complete Business Profile and a fast website, reviews are one of the strongest local SEO levers.
What should I do about negative reviews?
Reply quickly, calmly and publicly: thank the customer, address the issue, offer a fix. Readers judge you by your reaction, not by the one-star rating — and a profile with a few critical reviews often looks more credible than a perfect 5.0.
