One tag on the table. Reviews and menus.
Nudge Tags turns a tap into a Google review — or straight into your menu. Every plaque and every table is tracked separately, so you finally know which ones people actually use, and when.

What it does
Two jobs, one tag
Run either. Run both. It’s one venue either way, and one price.
More five-star reviews, fewer public surprises
Customers rate their visit on your own page. Happy ones are handed to your Google listing with the review box already open. Anyone below your threshold reaches you privately first.
- Threshold you set, per venue
- Private feedback inbox with email alerts
- Which star they tapped, and whether they finished
- One link per plaque, so you can compare spots
Your menu, and which tables are actually busy
A tap forwards straight to your menu — no rating step, no friction. Each table gets its own code, so the numbers tell you where people sit and when.
- Add tables one at a time or a whole range at once
- Taps and unique people, per table
- Busiest tables ranked, busiest hours charted
- Pause a single table without touching the rest
What it’s worth
Work out what it does to your rating
Move the sliders to your venue. The review count and rating are exact arithmetic — we don’t invent a dollar figure, because nobody honestly can.
5 – 500
1.0 – 5.0
0 – 2000
2% – 40%
12% is typical for a tag on the counter. Table tags run higher.
New Google reviews a month
61
$2.44 per review — that’s the $149 monthly fee ÷ 61 reviews
It climbs fast then flattens — an average converges on what’s being added to it. With new reviews averaging 4.7★, you approach 4.7 and can’t pass it. The first three months are where nearly all the movement is.
| Reviews | Rating | |
|---|---|---|
| In 3 months | 263 | 4.55 +0.35 |
| In 6 months | 446 | 4.61 +0.41 |
| In 12 months | 812 | 4.65 +0.45 |
How these numbers are worked out
- 60 customers a day × 30 = 1,800 visits a month
- 12% tap the tag = 216 people open your page
- 72% of those actually tap a star — the rest open it and put the phone down
- 78% land at or above a 4★ gate and are sent to Google; the rest reach you privately instead
- 50% of those finish writing on Google — the single biggest drop-off, and deliberately pessimistic
- New reviews are assumed to average 4.7★, then folded into your existing 80 reviews as a weighted mean
These are theoretical numbers, not a promise. The biggest assumption is that every customer is a different person. Most venues have regulars, and a regular who has already reviewed you won’t review you again — so if a good share of your 60 daily customers are the same faces, the real figure will be well below this. The four rates above are industry-typical, not measured at your venue.
The rating maths is exact — an average is a weighted mean, so that part is arithmetic. What none of it can tell you is what a higher rating is worth in dollars: that depends on your margins and your competitors, and anyone putting a revenue figure on it is guessing. What is well established is that review count and recency both feed Google’s local ranking.
How it works
Three steps, about two minutes
No CRM to learn, no integrations to wire up. Paste a link, print a code, watch the numbers.
Add your venue
Paste any Google Maps link and we turn it into one that opens the review box directly. Add a menu link too if you want both.
Put the tags out
Download a QR for each plaque and each table, or use the Nudge Tags plaques. Every one gets its own link so you can tell them apart.
Watch what happens
Taps, ratings, where they came from, what time, which table — and every private complaint in one inbox.
Features
Everything a local venue actually needs
One tap, no app, no typing
A customer taps the tag or scans the code and your page opens on their phone. No download, no account, nothing to fill in. That is the whole reason it gets used.
Nothing reaches Google by surprise
You choose the rating that goes straight to your listing. Anything under it is asked for private feedback first, so you hear about the problem before the internet does.
Down to the table and the hour
Every plaque and every table has its own link, so you can see which spot actually gets used — and when. Busiest hours, busiest days, and a day-by-hour heatmap in your venue’s own timezone.
A workspace per venue
Each location is its own workspace with its own numbers, settings and team. Nothing from one venue leaks into another. One switch shows you everything at once.
Team access, free
Send a link and a manager joins. Scope them to a single venue, or make them view-only. You’re billed per venue, never per person.
Pause anything, instantly
Turn off one table, one plaque, one whole venue — or just the menu while keeping reviews live. Tags stay valid and come back the moment you switch them on.
The dashboard
Numbers you can act on by Friday
Not a vanity counter. Which table, which plaque, which hour, which day — and every complaint that never made it to Google.

Questions
Before you start
Does it do menus as well as reviews?
Both, and a venue can run either or both without paying twice. A menu tag skips the rating step and forwards straight to your menu, counting the tap. A review tag opens your rating page. Same venue, same price, separate numbers.
How does the review routing work?
You pick a threshold. Ratings at or above it go to Google Maps. Ratings below it open a private feedback form only you can read. Set the threshold to every rating and everyone goes to Google — you still see the complaint first.
Is filtering low ratings allowed?
Google’s review policies prohibit review gating — soliciting public reviews only from happy customers — and consumer regulators in Australia and the US take the same view. That is why the threshold is yours to set, why “everyone goes to Google” is pre-selected at signup, why the private-feedback page still offers a public review link by default, and why we say so here rather than in the small print.
Can you tell if someone actually posted the review?
Not per person, and nobody can — once a customer is on google.com there is no callback to anyone. What we can do, once connected to Google’s API, is track your listing’s review count and rating over time and set that against how many people we sent. That gives you a real conversion rate. Any product claiming to track individual reviews is guessing.
What do you know about the customer?
Their phone type, the time, and which tag they tapped. That is all a web page ever gets. No name, no number, no email, no age, no gender — unless they choose to type it into the feedback form. We store a salted one-way hash to count returning visitors that cannot be reversed and rolls over nightly.
What if I have more than one venue?
Each venue is its own workspace with its own dashboard, tags and team. Switch to the group view to see them side by side. Billing is per venue.
How does billing work?
One price per venue, whether it runs reviews, menus or both. Team members are free. Cancel any time — your pages stay live to the end of the period you’ve paid for, then pause rather than disappear, so nothing is lost if you come back.
