One plan, everything included
Monthly plan
Why this works where buying doesn't
Nothing to detect
The reviews come from people who actually paid you, written on their own phones, from their own homes. There is no footprint for Google's filter to find, because there is no footprint.
You do nothing
We take the customer contacts, write the templates, send the requests, follow up with the people who ignored the first one, and answer the reviews that come back. You hand over a contact list or plug us into your booking system, and that's your side done.
The reviews stay
Bought reviews vanish in filter sweeps months after you paid, and the rating lands lower than where it started. Reviews from verified customers survive, because they are the thing the filter is built to keep.
Everyone gets asked
Screening for happy customers before you ask β review gating β is against both Google's policy and the FTC rule. We ask every customer. That is also why the reviews read like people rather than like copy.
No lock-in
Monthly, cancel whenever. Everything you earned stays β the reviews are attached to your profile, not to our service, so leaving costs you nothing.

Questions people actually ask
Can you just sell me Google reviews? +
No. We don't sell reviews and we don't broker for anyone who does. What we sell is the work of getting your own customers to write them: pulling the contacts, timing the ask, chasing the people who ignored it, and answering what comes back.
Is buying Google reviews illegal? +
In the United States, yes β since October 2024 the FTC's rule on consumer reviews and testimonials makes buying and selling fake reviews a violation carrying civil penalties, and it applies to the business that bought them, not only to the seller. In the EU the Omnibus Directive puts the same practice on the blacklist of unfair commercial practices in national consumer law. Separately from the law, Google's own content policy treats it as spam, which is what puts the profile at risk.
What actually happens if I buy them? +
It usually runs in three stages. The reviews appear and the rating climbs. Then a filter pass removes a share of them β often months later, once you've stopped watching β and the average lands below where you started, because the genuine reviews are now outnumbered differently. Then, if the pattern was obvious, the profile draws a warning or a suspension, and getting it back is weeks of appeals with no listing in the meantime.
How many reviews will I actually get? +
It depends on how many customers you serve and how well we can reach them. As a working figure, 5β15% of people who get a well-timed request end up leaving a review. On the Standard plan that lands most businesses at five to eight a month. We give you a specific number after looking at your profile and your customer volume β not before.
How fast does it start? +
First requests go out within a few days of getting your contacts. First reviews usually appear in week two or three. That is slower than buying them, and the pace is the point: reviews that arrive at a human rate are the ones that stay.
What do you need from me? +
A way to reach your customers β a contact export, access to your booking or point-of-sale system, or space at the counter for a QR card. Plus manager access to your Google Business Profile. Nothing else.
