Your Google review kit: QR, messages and customer batch

Paste it in. This tool builds the longer search.google.com review link from it. Google's own Place ID finder shows the ID for any business. A link built this way does not open the review box for every user, so test it on two phones before you print it.

A Maps or listing link opens your business page, where the customer still has to find the review button. A review link opens the review box directly, which is why fewer people give up on the way.

No. Google's policy does not allow paying for reviews or rewarding them, and it can remove them or penalise the profile. Ask every customer the same way and let the experience speak.

No. Filtering who you ask, called review gating, is against Google's policy. Ask everyone, then reply to every review, good or bad, calmly and specifically.

They should not. Reviews should come from people who really used your business. Staff and family reviews are a conflict of interest and are among the first that Google removes.

No. It turns your list into one WhatsApp link per customer. You tap each one and press send from your own number, so a person is in the loop for every message. That keeps it personal and keeps your number safe.

A small batch. Thirty or so a day is a sensible start. WhatsApp can limit a number that messages many people who have not saved it, so go slowly, only message people who really bought from you, and stop for anyone who asks.

English, Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati. You can edit any message before you send it. If you speak the language, read it once and adjust the wording to how you talk to your customers.

No. The list is read inside your browser tab and is never uploaded. Refreshing the page clears it, so download the list of who is left before you close the tab.

No. The QR code, cards, messages and customer batch are made inside your browser. Your link, business name and customer list are never sent to us. The only exception is the quote form at the bottom: if you send it, we receive what you typed there, plus the business name and review link you entered. Never your customer list.
