Free Google review card maker

How it works

1. 1Find your business the way you would on Google Maps, or paste the review link from "Ask for reviews" in your Business Profile. The QR opens your review box directly, with the stars ready to tap.
2. 2Pick a design: a business card (ten to an A4 sheet), a table tent that folds in half, round 80 mm stickers, or an A4 poster. Change the name, the closing line and the colour.
3. 3Download the PDF and print it at 100% scale on thick paper or sticker paper, then cut along the grey lines. The PNG is for Facebook, Messenger or a digital menu.
4. 4Scan one with your own phone before you print a stack. It should open your business, not a search.

Why it matters

A Google review card works for the same reason a QR at the counter does: it catches the customer while they are happy and still holding their phone. The card goes further than a sign, though. It travels in the delivery bag, sits on the table while people wait for their food, and gets handed over with the change or the receipt.

Most review cards sold online are NFC tap cards: you touch the card with a phone and the review page opens. They work, but they cost money per card, not every phone reads NFC the same way, and a card that is dropped, bent or left in the sun can stop working. A printed QR is free, and every phone camera made in the last several years can read it. For most carinderias, salons and cafés the printed card does the job; an NFC stand is worth it only if you like the look on a busy counter.

Put cards where people wait: the cashier, each table, the salon mirror, inside the delivery bag with the receipt. Then say one line out loud when you hand it over. For what to say, and what Google does not allow, read how to ask customers for Google reviews. Before you add Google's own logo, read what the Google reviews logo rules allow: these cards use text and stars on purpose.

Frequently asked

What is a Google review card?

A small printed card, sticker or stand with a QR code that opens your business's Google review page. The customer scans it with the phone camera, taps the stars and writes a line, without searching for you first.

Do I need an NFC card to get Google reviews?

No. An NFC card opens the same review page when tapped, but a printed QR does that for free and works on any phone with a camera. NFC is a nice-to-have, not a requirement.

Is it against Google's rules to hand out review cards?

No, as long as you give them to every customer and offer nothing in return. A discount or freebie for a review, or handing cards only to customers you expect to be happy, breaks Google's policy. See how to ask customers for Google reviews.

What size should a review card be?

Standard business-card size, 85 × 55 mm, fits a wallet and a receipt tray. For tables use a folded A6 tent, and keep the QR itself at least 3 cm wide so older phones read it from arm's length.
