Ask for the review while they’re still there.

• Your review link. Copy it from your Google Business Profile and paste it into the code.
• Or another review page. Yelp, Tripadvisor or your own feedback form, if that’s where you collect them.
• A code for each place. Plans include unlimited codes, so give the counter, the receipts and the tables their own and compare their scans.

Review links change when a business moves, renames itself or switches review sites. Change where the code goes in Your codes and every card, sticker and receipt already printed follows.

Changes

Change what it opens in Your codes. We check a new address or file first, usually within seconds, then every printed copy follows. You can undo a change.

Scans

Counted by day, device and city.

If you stop

Printed codes work to the end of what you paid for, and we email you 7 days before they would stop.

Short link

Never given to anyone else, so a printed code never leads to someone else’s page.

Smallest size

At least 1 inch wide in the style above. A logo or finer dots can make it bigger, so the designer and the download page work it out for your design.

Distance

People can scan a code from up to about 10 times its width away, so a sign by the till read from 3 feet away needs a code at least 3.75 inches wide.

Contrast

Keep it dark on a light background. The designer blocks colors too light to scan in print, even when they look fine on screen, and light codes on dark backgrounds.

White margin

Every file comes with a white margin as wide as 4 of the code’s dots. Keep at least 2 of them clear: don’t crop into it or print over it.

Behind glass

Reflections can hide a code. Put it where lights and the sun won’t shine off it, and avoid glossy finishes.

Only ask

Google’s rules don’t allow rewards for reviews, so the card should ask and nothing more.

Test print

Before you print a lot, print one copy at the real size and scan it with more than one phone, from as far away as people will be.
