To create a Google review QR code, get the review link from your Google Business Profile, turn that link into a QR code, scan-test it, and place it somewhere customers can easily see and scan.
For a dedicated physical review sticker, Sticker Swan recommends an overall size of 4 inches or larger. You can start with as few as 21 custom 4″ × 4″ stickers for $28.77.
What is a Google review QR code?
A Google review QR code is a scannable code that sends a customer to the review destination for your Google Business Profile.
Instead of asking a customer to search for your company, find the correct profile, open the reviews section and locate the review option, the QR code can shorten the process to:
That makes QR review stickers useful for restaurants, retailers, salons, automotive businesses, contractors, professional offices, service companies and many other businesses that interact with customers in person.
How to create a Google review QR code
Open your Google Business Profile
Use a computer browser and sign in to the Google account that manages the Business Profile.
Select “Read reviews” and “Get more reviews”
Google provides options to share your review link or QR code. Copy the review link if you want to build the code into your own Sticker Swan design.
Paste your review link into Sticker Swan
Open the free Sticker Swan QR Code Generator and paste your Google review link into the URL field.
Open the Free QR Code Generator →Test the QR code before printing
Scan the final code with more than one phone and confirm that it opens the correct Google review destination before ordering your stickers.
Start with just 21 review stickers
You do not have to commit to hundreds of stickers. Sticker Swan lets you start with as few as 21 custom 4″ × 4″ QR code stickers for $28.77.

Why we recommend a 4-inch Google review sticker
A QR code does not technically need to be four inches wide to scan. The 4-inch recommendation is for the overall dedicated review sticker.
A review sticker needs enough room for more than the QR symbol. It should tell the customer what the code does, give the QR pattern clear space and remain noticeable in a real business environment.
How large should the QR code itself be?
On a typical 4″ × 4″ review sticker, the QR symbol might occupy roughly 2.25″ to 2.75″ of the design, depending on the layout, headline and branding.
That leaves room for the clear margin around the QR pattern and for copy such as “Scan to Review Us.”
Where should you place Google review QR stickers?
One advantage of starting with 21 stickers is that you can test multiple customer touchpoints rather than relying on one sticker in one location.
Use a small run to test what works
A 21-piece starter quantity makes it practical to put stickers in several locations and learn where customers actually notice and scan them.
You might find that your counter performs better than the door, or that a 6-inch window sticker attracts more attention than a smaller desk sticker. Once you learn what works, you can reorder the placement, size or finish that makes the most sense.
Can you use the same QR code in different places?
Yes. If every sticker should send customers to the same Google Business Profile, the same verified QR code can be printed repeatedly and placed throughout that business.
That makes one design useful on a counter, door, register, window, reception desk and other customer touchpoints.
Create the correct review link and QR code for each business or location. Do not send customers from one location to another business's review profile.
Can Google review QR stickers be used long term?
Yes. A static QR code does not have a built-in expiration date. If the Google review destination remains valid and the printed sticker remains readable, the same code can continue to be used.
This makes QR review stickers useful as a long-term customer touchpoint rather than only a short promotional campaign.
For even more control, a business can point the QR code to a short redirect on a domain it owns and forward that URL to its current Google review destination.
Try specialty finishes for Google review stickers
Once you have confirmed that the QR code scans reliably, you can experiment with specialty materials to make the review prompt more noticeable.
Clean, versatile choices for counters, desks and general business use.
Adds attention-grabbing reflection around a high-contrast QR area.
Can create a clean look while keeping an opaque light field behind the QR code.
What should a Google review QR sticker say?
The best copy is usually short. The customer should understand exactly what happens when they scan.
Static or dynamic QR code for Google reviews?
A static QR code is a simple choice when you are comfortable permanently encoding the final review URL.
It does not require an ongoing QR subscription simply for the code to continue existing, but its destination cannot be edited after the code is printed.
If you need to change destinations later, consider a dynamic system or a redirect URL on a domain that your business controls.
Test your review sticker before ordering
Make sure the code opens the correct Google review page.
Do not rely only on a large computer-screen preview.
Test current iPhone and Android devices.
Windows, glossy surfaces and overhead lights can create glare.
A door or window sticker needs to work farther away than a package label.
Ask for genuine reviews, not incentivized reviews
Google allows businesses to remind customers to leave reviews and specifically supports sharing review links and displaying QR codes.
Do not offer cash, discounts, free products, free services or other incentives in exchange for a review. Ask customers for genuine feedback about their actual experience rather than requiring a positive rating.
