The steps below use the placeholder link ohlocal.co/r/yourcode — swap in your own short link from your dashboard.
Setup steps
- Sign in at squareup.com and open Account & Settings → Receipt.
- Enter your review line in the Custom Text field — for example: "How was your visit? ohlocal.co/r/yourcode".
- Save — the line appears on printed and digital receipts, and the same setting covers Square Appointments.
- Run a test sale and confirm on both formats; on digital receipts the link is tappable.
- Customers who decline a receipt still walk out — keep a take-home card at the counter for them.
Is this allowed? Yes — here’s the line.
Google’s own “Get reviews” help page explicitly endorses links and QR codes on receipts. What the April 2026 policy update bans is on-premises kiosks, shared tablets, and review gating — receipt links and post-visit follow-ups remain allowed.
Keep the framing take-home: the receipt leaves with the customer, and they scan whenever it suits them. Never print “scan before you leave”-style copy, and never have staff watch anyone scan.
