Google Review Cards for Restaurants & Cafés

Q: Where should a restaurant put Google review stands?

The best spots are the register and the tables. Guests at the register are finishing a good experience, and guests at a table have a few idle minutes while they wait for the check.

Q: Can servers ask guests to tap the stand?

Yes. Asking every guest for an honest review is allowed. Just don't offer a discount or free item in exchange, because Google's policies prohibit incentivised reviews.

Q: Do Google review cards violate Google's policies?

No. Google allows businesses to ask customers for reviews. What its policies prohibit is offering discounts or gifts in exchange for reviews, and only asking happy customers to leave one (known as review gating). TapNow links every customer to your public Google review form so they can leave honest feedback.

Q: Do customers need an app?

No. NFC tapping and QR scanning are built into modern iPhones and Android phones, so your Google review form opens straight in the browser.

Diners choose where to eat by checking Google ratings, and the best moment to ask for a review is while the meal is still fresh. A TapNow stand on the table or at the register lets guests tap and review in seconds, without staff having to explain anything.

Why Restaurants & Cafés Need More Google Reviews

Happy guests forget to review

Most satisfied diners mean to leave a review and never do. A stand at the table puts the request in front of them at the right moment.

One bad review drags your rating down

A steady flow of reviews from everyday guests keeps your rating an accurate picture of your food and service.

Staff are too busy to ask

Servers can simply point at the stand when they drop off the check. No scripts, no extra steps.

Where to Place Your Review Card

On each table next to the menu or condiments
At the register or pickup counter
On the bill folder or receipt tray
At the host stand or front window

Every TapNow product has an NFC chip and a QR code, so customers with any smartphone can reach your review form. Setup takes under 60 seconds and the analytics dashboard is free.
