Google Review Link and QR Code Generator
Make a direct link to your Google review form and a QR code for it. Free, no sign-up, and ready for the truck, invoices and cards.
Your QR code
Put it on the back of your business card, your invoices, the van and the job sheet you leave behind. Customers point their phone camera at it and land on your review form.
PNG for printing at home and for messages. SVG for printers and sign makers, it stays sharp at any size.
How to find your link
Option 1: the "Ask for reviews" link (easiest)
- Sign in to the Google account that manages your Business Profile.
- Search Google for your business name. Your profile tools show at the top of the results.
- Click Ask for reviews (it can also sit under Read reviews or Get more reviews).
- Copy the link Google gives you. It starts with
https://g.page/r/. Paste it above.
Option 2: your Place ID
- Open Google's Place ID Finder.
- Type your business name into the map search and pick your listing.
- Copy the Place ID (it usually starts with
ChIJ) and paste it above.
How to use it
- Open your Google Business Profile, choose Ask for reviews, and copy the share link (it starts https://g.page/r/). Or paste your Place ID (usually starts ChIJ), which you can find with Google's Place ID Finder. Paste either one into the tool. A Google Maps share link (maps.app.goo.gl) will not work.
- Copy the review link it gives you (there is a copy button and a test link). Open it once yourself to check that it goes to your review form.
- Download the QR code as PNG or SVG. Use SVG for anything printed large, like a truck door sticker.
- Send the link in a text or email, or print the code and put it where customers will see it.
It is free, there is no sign-up, and the code never expires. The code points straight at Google, not through our site.
An example
Say Dave runs Hale Plumbing (an example business) in Columbus. He copies the Ask for reviews link from his profile and pastes it in, copies the review link into his follow-up text, and prints the code at the bottom of his invoices. Google reviews sit next to your Yelp, Angi and BBB listings, and this link is for Google only.
Where to put your QR code
- On the truck. Rear doors and the side panel are where people stand still behind you at the lights. Keep the code big and give it a clear white border.
- On invoices. Print it at the bottom, next to the line that says thanks. Customers are looking at that page when they decide whether to pay.
- On business cards. Small, but it works. Keep it at least 0.8 in (2 cm) wide.
- On job sheets. Hand the customer their copy and point at the code before you leave.
Print size
Make it at least 0.8 in (2 cm) wide on cards and invoices. On a truck or a sign, aim for about 12 in (30 cm) wide for a code people scan from 10 ft (3 m) away. Print it in dark ink on a light background and leave a clear margin around the edge. Scan it with your own phone before you order a hundred copies.

Plan: On the Local plan
Submit the finished job from your phone and Mitch texts the customer your review link 24 to 72 hours later, then drafts a reply when the review comes in. Needs the customer's mobile number and a consent checkbox. Nothing goes out until you approve.
