The short answer
To make a Google review QR code, copy your review link from your Google Business Profile, then turn it into a QR code with any QR generator. Use a static code that points straight at Google's link, not a tracking redirect that can expire. Put it on the receipt, the invoice or the counter.
Many free QR services create a "dynamic" code that sends people through their own website first. If the service changes its terms or shuts the code off, every printed sticker stops working. A static code contains the review link itself and keeps working.
No. Google doesn't allow incentives for reviews, and the FTC treats paid reviews as deceptive.
A static code doesn't. A dynamic one depends on the service that made it.
It rarely gets scanned there. A card at the end of the job works better.
To get more Google reviews, ask every customer right after the job, with a direct link.
