A practical workflow
Use a short caption
Explain that the QR opens the business review page. Include the familiar business name so the purpose remains clear when the receipt is separated from the visit.
Preserve scan quality
Print a sharp code with a clear margin. Test the actual receipt printer and paper rather than only a digital artwork file.
Keep alternatives
A customer who cannot scan should still understand that reviewing is optional. Staff can share the same campaign link when asked.
Avoid this mistake
Do not place the QR across folds, faded thermal areas or mandatory purchase information.
What to check
Test scans from fresh and handled receipts under realistic lighting.
Keep the invitation genuine
Google’s rules prohibit fake and incentivised engagement. Use a consistent invitation for real customer experiences, including critical ones. Keep support, refunds and service access independent of public feedback. reviewbuddy.in supports manual WhatsApp Web sharing; email requests require SMTP setup and explicit approval. A sent invitation does not prove that a customer has posted.
