A QR code for Google reviews is just a scannable version of a direct link to your review box, and both the link and the code are free to create in a few minutes. The part people actually get wrong is less the technical setup and more where they put it.
Here's the practical version, start to finish.
- Find your direct review link inside your Google Business Profile dashboard, under 'Get more reviews'
- Paste that link into any free QR code generator to get a scannable code
- Print it somewhere it'll be seen at the moment someone's happiest, not buried on a receipt footer
- Test the scan yourself before printing anything at scale
Getting the direct link
Inside your Google Business Profile manager, there's a 'Get more reviews' option that generates a short, direct link straight to your review box, skipping the search-and-find step entirely. This is the link that actually matters, everything else is just presentation.
Turning it into a QR code
Any free QR code generator will convert that link into a scannable code in seconds, no paid tool required. What matters more than the generator you use is testing the resulting code yourself, on your own phone, before it goes anywhere near a printer.
Placement is the part people get wrong
A QR code buried in the small print of a receipt gets scanned by almost nobody. Placed at the till, on a table tent, on a card handed over at the exact moment someone's clearly happy, the same code gets scanned meaningfully more often, because the ask arrives at the moment it's most likely to be acted on.
Questions people ask
Is there a cost to generating the QR code itself?
No, both the direct review link from Google and the QR code conversion are free.
Can the same QR code be used across multiple locations?
No, each location has its own Google Business Profile and its own direct review link, so each site needs its own code.
