One tap. More Google reviews. More WhatsApp orders.

It's a credit-card sized card with an NFC chip inside and a QR code printed on it, programmed with your business's Google review link. A customer holds their phone near it or scans the code, and your review page opens on their screen — no searching, no typing, no app.

Choose the ₹500 Google Review card if you only want more reviews: a tap opens Google's review form directly. Choose the ₹1,000 All-in-One card if you also want customers to message you on WhatsApp, call, follow your Instagram, find you on Maps and save your number: a tap opens your own premium page with your logo, Save contact and Share, and the review button on top.

Four things. Every business card page has Save contact and Share built in, so customers save your number or send your card to a friend in one tap. You can edit your own page — WhatsApp, links, logo and colour — anytime with your card number and a private PIN, and the change shows on your card in seconds; or message us and we'll do it in minutes. The card never needs reprinting. And it's a one-time price — no subscription that can switch your card off.

Yes, with the All-in-One business card. Ask us for your edit PIN, then log in at tapstarindia.com/edit with your card number and PIN. You can change your WhatsApp numbers, WhatsApp group or channel, Telegram, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, website, menu link, logo, page colour and city scenery, and your card shows the change straight away. Your Google review link stays managed by us, and any change can be undone in one tap.

Yes, with the All-in-One business card. The Save contact button fills in your name, WhatsApp, phone, email, links and logo on iPhone and Android; the customer only confirms.

Yes. Our website and every customer page are designed to WCAG 2.2 Level AA — screen-reader labels, keyboard support, strong contrast and large tap targets. See our accessibility statement.

NFC is the same short-range technology as tap-to-pay. The chip holds a web link. When a phone comes within a couple of centimetres, it reads that link and offers to open it. One tap on the notification takes the customer straight to your Google review screen.

No. The card opens their normal browser. Nothing to download and nothing to sign up for, on your side or theirs.

They scan the QR code printed on the card with the camera app — same page, same result. Between the two methods, almost every phone in use today is covered.

Yes. iPhone XR and newer generally read the card when you hold the top of the phone near it. Older iPhones use the QR code. On Android, most phones from the last several years read NFC provided it's switched on in settings — behaviour varies a little by model and software version, which is exactly why every card carries a QR code too.

Yes, Google requires people to be signed in before they can post. Almost every Android user already is, and most iPhone users have a Google account too. If they're not signed in, Google prompts them and the whole thing still takes under a minute.

₹500 for the Google Review card and ₹1,000 for the All-in-One business card, fully set up and branded. That's a one-time price with nothing recurring. Larger orders for chains and multi-branch businesses get bulk pricing — ask on WhatsApp.

None. You pay for the card once. There's no plan, no renewal, no per-scan charge and no dashboard subscription.

Design and programming take one to two working days after your details are confirmed. Delivery time then depends on your city — we'll give you a date on WhatsApp before we print anything.

Yes. We're based in New Delhi and deliver both cards anywhere in India. Setup happens over WhatsApp, so your city doesn't change the process — Delhi NCR orders can arrive the same day.

Tell us on WhatsApp and we'll help you set one up before the card is programmed. It's free to create and usually takes about a day to verify.

Use the order form on this page or message us on WhatsApp. We confirm your business, the design and the delivery address before anything goes to print.

Wherever you say thank you — the billing counter, the reception desk, the salon chair, the delivery bag. The best results come from a staff member handing it over with one sentence: "if you had a good experience, tap here."

Nobody can promise you a number, and you should be suspicious of anyone who does. What we can say is that the drop-off happens at the friction, not the willingness — most customers don't mind reviewing, they just won't go and search for you. Shops that hand the card over on purpose see far more than shops that leave it in a drawer.

Yes. It's a link on a chip, so it can point anywhere — your Instagram, a digital menu, a booking page, your WhatsApp, or a single page that lists all of them.

Yes. Free reprogramming if your Google review link changes — you move premises, rebrand, or Google re-lists you. You keep the same card.

Yes, and each branch should get its own card pointing at its own profile — Google treats every location separately, so reviews need to land on the right one. Tell us how many locations and we'll price it as a set.

No. The NFC chip has no battery and never needs charging. It draws the tiny amount of power it needs from the phone that taps it, which is why the card works for years and can't run flat.

The tap itself works offline, but opening your review page needs a connection — the same as opening any website. On mobile data or your shop's WiFi it takes a second.

Unlimited. There's no counter, no credits and no expiry. The same card can be tapped by every customer for as long as it physically survives.

Message us on WhatsApp and we'll make a replacement programmed with the same link. Cards are waterproof and built for a counter, but bent cards and lost cards happen.

You don't. It arrives already programmed with your review link and ready to use — take it out of the envelope and put it on the counter. Setup happens on our side before printing.

Yes. We put your logo and colours on it as standard. If you have specific artwork or a layout in mind, send it on WhatsApp and we'll match it before printing.

That's exactly what we do. We locate your Google Business Profile, take the direct review link it generates, and write that to the card — so the card opens the review box for your listing specifically, not a general Maps page.

Yes, with one card per location. Google keeps a separate listing and a separate review link for each branch, so a shared card would send every review to whichever branch it was programmed for. Tell us how many locations and we'll price them as a set.

Yes. The All-in-One business card is ₹1,000, and larger orders for chains, clinic groups and franchises get bulk pricing. Message us on WhatsApp with the quantity and we'll quote.

Yes, and it's our most common use. The card sits at the billing counter or inside the bill folder, so diners review you while the meal is still fresh. There's more detail on our Google review cards for restaurants page.

Yes. Salons keep it at reception, where clients pay while still looking at the result. See Google review cards for salons for placement and what stylists should say.

Yes. A card on the reception desk means nobody has to ask a patient for a favour out loud, which is usually the reason clinics under-collect. See Google review cards for clinics.

Not at the moment — we make cards only. Plenty of businesses stand the card upright in a small acrylic holder bought locally, which gets you the same counter presence for very little. If you need something bigger, tell us on WhatsApp and we'll say honestly whether we can help.

Yes. Fill in the order form on this page or message us on WhatsApp — that's the whole process. We confirm your business and design over chat, then deliver anywhere in India.

A QR card carries a printed code the customer scans with a camera. An NFC card carries a chip the customer taps their phone on. Ours is both on one card: tapping is faster, and scanning works on phones that have no NFC or have it switched off.

Yes. Google allows you to ask customers for reviews. What isn't allowed is paying for reviews, offering discounts in exchange, filtering out unhappy customers, or writing fake ones. The card only makes your real review page easier to reach — that's the whole trick.

Google says reviews are one factor in local ranking, alongside relevance, distance and prominence. So more reviews can help, but they are not a lever you pull for a guaranteed result. The safer way to think about it: reviews are a major part of your online reputation, and they influence both how Google sees you and how customers judge you before walking in.

Possibly. AI overviews and assistants have to pick a few names out of many, and they can use public signals such as your Google profile, reviews, relevance and location. Nobody outside Google knows the exact weighting, and we won't pretend otherwise. What's clear is that a profile with no recent reviews gives an assistant little reason to name you.

It happens, and a profile with nothing but perfect scores looks fake anyway. The defence is volume: one poor review among sixty barely moves your average, while one among six is a real dent. Reply to it politely in public — future customers read the reply as closely as the complaint.

No, and we won't help with that. Review gating breaks Google's policies and can get your profile penalised. TapStar points at your public review page for everyone, because the honest version is also the one that survives.

No. The chip holds a link and nothing else. It doesn't store, read or transmit anything from your customer's phone — the phone simply opens a web page.

No. We're an independent business. Google, the Google logo and Google Business Profile are trademarks of Google LLC, and our cards simply link to your own public Google review page.
