How to share your review link

Share your unique review link or QR code with customers to collect feedback quickly and easily.

Your review link is the fastest way to get customers onto your review page — paste it in a text, print it on a receipt, or display it as a QR code on your counter. Everything your customers need to leave a review lives at one shareable URL, and this article walks you through finding it, customizing it, and putting it to work.

Step 1: Find your review link and QR code

The Review Link page (Reputation → Link) loads with your unique link already generated and ready to share. You'll see the full URL in the Preview URL box (for example, https://app.praising.ai/r/4ba97cdf06a2), and the QR code button at the top of the page shows a QR code that points to the same destination.

To copy the link, open the Download menu at the top and choose Copy review link, or click Copy link in the QR code window. Then paste it wherever you need it: a follow-up text, an email footer, your Google Business Profile, or a printed handout.

Tip: Use the Open button at the top of the page to preview exactly what your customers see before you start sharing the link anywhere.

Step 2: Set a custom URL

Your default link uses a short random code, but a branded URL is easier to remember and looks more professional in print. Under Custom URL, type a short name for your link (for example, acme-coffee). If you've set one before, it's already filled in.

Use something that matches your business name, then click Save at the bottom of the form. The Preview URL box then shows your new link, and your original link keeps working.

Step 3: Upload your logo

Click Upload logo under the Media section to add your brand mark to the review page. A logo makes the page feel like a natural extension of your business rather than a generic form, which increases the chance customers follow through.

Step 4: Choose what customers see first

Three switches control what customers see when they arrive on your review page:

  • Disable Experience Filter: When switched on, this hides the "Experience Filter" page, where customers choose between leaving a review and messaging you, and takes them straight to your review sites with a Feedback button for private messages. Turn this on if you want a simpler, single-step flow.

  • Show “Message us privately” option: On by default. Turn it off to show only your review sites. If no review site is connected yet, customers still get the private message form.

  • Ask for a rating first: Pick Other in the menu at the top of the form to find it. Your review page then opens with a star rating, and whatever the rating, customers get the same two choices: post a public review, or send you a private message.

None of these is required. By default, customers choose between leaving a review and sending you a private message. Whatever you pick, the rating never decides where a customer can go, and every customer can still leave a public review on the sites you've connected.

Step 5: Add your Google review link

Pick Review Sites in the menu at the top of the form, then paste your Google review link into the Where reviewers go field. This is where customers land when they tap Leave a review inside your funnel. No Google account connection is required. Praising.ai simply redirects customers to the URL you provide.

Once you've pasted the link, click Save.

Step 6: Create tracked QR codes

If you display your review link in more than one physical location, tracked QR codes let you measure which spots actually drive scans. Pick QR Codes in the menu at the top of the form, click New, give the code a label such as your counter, receipts, or table tents, and click Create code. Each code gets its own scan count, so you can see which placements customers scan most.

Tip: The Please Note notice at the bottom of the page is a good reminder: your review page always shows the public-review option to every customer.

What's Next?

Now that your review link is set up and ready to share, here are a few natural next steps:

  • How to send your first review request: Start proactively inviting customers to leave a review by email, or by text on paid plans.

  • How to set up Auto-Send for review requests: Email a review request automatically to each new contact you add.

  • How to create an opt-in page for review collection: Give customers a way to subscribe to review requests directly from your website or storefront.
