Why Physical QR Codes Outperform Verbal Requests 10 to 1

1. Low Contrast: Never put a light gray QR code on a pastel background. Always use dark ink (charcoal, navy, or deep black) on a crisp white container. 2. Missing Instruction: Older patrons may not instinctively know what the QR code does. Always include a headline: "Point your phone camera to review us on Google." 3. Gating or Conditional Logic: Never attempt to hide the review link behind a "Did you enjoy your service?" quiz. Google strictly penalizes review gating.---How to Generate Your Standee in 60 Seconds

Frequently Asked Questions
Do customers need a special app to scan the review QR code?
No. All modern iPhones and Android smartphones (including Xiaomi, Samsung, OnePlus, Vivo, Oppo) have native QR code scanners built directly into their standard camera app.
What size should I print for table tents vs front counter standees?
For dining tables, A6 (105 x 148 mm) acrylic tents are ideal because they don't crowd tableware. For front checkout desks, A5 (148 x 210 mm) provides high visibility. For shopfront windows or entrance doors, A4 (210 x 297 mm) ensures people can scan from 3-4 feet away.
