An NFC Google Review Card is a physical smart card embedded with a high-frequency wireless microchip (NTAG215) that allows customers to access your business's official Google review page with a single smartphone tap.

How Does an NFC Review Card Work?

The card operates using Near Field Communication (NFC) technology at a frequency of 13.56 MHz. When an iPhone or NFC-enabled Android phone comes within 2 to 4 centimeters of the card, the phone reads the wirelessly transmitted web link and prompts the user to open your Google Maps review interface.

Do Customers Need an App?

No! Customers do not need to download any mobile application. Modern smartphones natively scan NFC chips out of the box.

Which Phones Support NFC Cards?

All iPhones starting from iPhone XS, iPhone 11, iPhone 12, iPhone 13, iPhone 14, iPhone 15, iPhone 16 and newer, as well as virtually all modern Android smartphones from Samsung, Xiaomi, Vivo, Oppo, OnePlus, and RealMe support NFC.

Why NFC Outperforms Traditional QR Codes

While QR codes require opening a camera app, focusing, and holding steady under proper lighting, NFC requires only a natural physical tap. This reduction in friction leads to significantly higher review completion rates at point-of-sale.
