How to Get Your Google Review Link

A plain-English guide by the Five-Stars Reviews team · Updated August 2026

Your Google review link is a short URL that takes a customer straight to the "leave a review" box for your business — no searching, no scrolling, one tap. If you only do one thing to get more reviews, it's this: make leaving a review effortless. Here's how to find your link.

The quick way (works for most businesses)

  1. Go to google.com/business and sign in with the Google account that manages your Business Profile.
  2. If you manage one business, you'll land on its dashboard. Look for the button or menu item called "Ask for reviews" (sometimes shown as "Get more reviews").
  3. Google shows you a short link that looks like g.page/r/XXXXXXXX/review. That's it — copy it.

On your phone

  1. Open the Google Maps app and make sure you're signed in with the account that manages your profile.
  2. Tap your profile picture, then Your Business Profile.
  3. Tap Ask for reviews — the same short link appears, ready to share by text or WhatsApp.

Can't see "Ask for reviews"?

Two common reasons:

Turn it into a QR code

For counters, vans, receipts and leaflets, a QR code works brilliantly: paste your review link into any free QR generator, print it with the words "How did we do? Scan to leave us a Google review" and put it where customers pay. People scan it while they're stood there feeling happy about the job.

💡 Test it before you share it. Open your link in a private/incognito window — you should land directly on a "rate this business" box with stars. If you land on your profile instead, grab the link again from "Ask for reviews".

What to do with your link

Send it to every happy customer, ideally within a few hours of finishing the job — that's when goodwill (and memory) peaks. A short personal text works far better than email. If texting every customer sounds like a chore, that's literally what our service automates.
