Get TapFive — Starting at $14.95THE MATH THAT'S HARD TO ARGUE WITH
Every week without it is a week your competitors are pulling ahead on Google.
"Your first week of reviews pays for the entire stand. Literally."
"Your first two new clients this month cover the entire investment — forever."
"One new patient found on Google covers your TapFive investment 5× over."
"One extra deal this month returns 23× the cost of your entire 10-pack investment."
This is not a purchase.
It's an investment.
Here's exactly what Google uses to decide who shows up first — and who gets buried.
Businesses with more reviews rank higher. Period. Google treats each review as a vote of confidence. 200 reviews beats 50 every time — even if the 50-review business has a higher star rating.
A burst of 50 reviews in January then nothing = Google thinks you're dead. 2 reviews per week, every week = Google thinks you're thriving. Steady beats spiky.
Under 4.0 stars and Google quietly buries you. Above 4.5 and you get the "Highly Rated" label that drives 25% more clicks. This is table stakes — you need VOLUME to protect your average.
You need approximately 200 reviews to rank in the top 3 in most US cities.
That's 7.5 years vs. 2 years. Every week you wait is a week your competitor builds a bigger lead.

WE KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING
75,000 business owners asked the same questions before they bought. Here's the truth.
"My customers won't know how to use it"
They tap their credit card to pay every day. This is identical. In 4 years and 40,000+ deployments, we've never had a single customer complaint about confusion. It just works.
"My staff won't remember to use it / won't be consistent"
The Stand doesn't require staff. It sits there and collects reviews 24/7 without anyone doing anything. The Card works because it's in your stylist's or server's pocket — one tap at their moment, not a vague request later.
"My customers won't actually leave a review even if the page opens"
They don't have to type anything. They tap the stars and hit submit. Takes 8 seconds from page open to review posted. That's why our conversion rate is 10–25% vs 1–3% for email requests.
"I already have a QR code / I already ask for reviews"
QR codes require: opening camera, holding steady, waiting for scan, hoping they don't get distracted. NFC requires: one tap. QR codes convert at 2–5%. NFC converts at 10–25%. You're leaving 5x the reviews on the table every single day.
"The price seems too cheap — is this quality?"
The cards use the same NFC chip technology as credit cards and hotel room keys — durable, waterproof-coated, built for daily business use. We sell on Amazon with 400+ reviews and 4.8 stars. The price is low because there's no subscription, no app, no platform. Just hardware.
"What if I get too many negative reviews?"
NFC doesn't change the quality of your reviews — it just makes it easier to get them. Businesses with 50+ reviews consistently average 4.2+ stars because the happy customers (the majority) actually submit. The silent majority finally has a voice.
"I'm not tech-savvy. Will I be able to set it up?"
Setup takes 60 seconds. You enter your Google Business Profile URL. We program it. Done. No app, no dashboard, no software. It arrives ready to use. If you get stuck, we'll do it for you — just email us.
"What if it stops working?"
NFC chips have no battery and no moving parts. They have a 10+ year functional lifespan. If anything goes wrong within 30 days, we refund you. After 30 days, we'll troubleshoot. We've had zero chip failures in 4 years of deployment.

Still hesitating? The real objection is inertia.

Try It Risk-Free for 30 DaysNo IT department. No software subscription. No tech support call. Just this:
Choose cards (pocket/carry) or stands (countertop). Pick your pack size. Checkout takes under a minute.
After ordering, enter your Google Business Profile review URL. One field. We program every card & stand to open that exact page when tapped. Nothing else to do.
(Don't know your Google review link? We'll send instructions. It takes 30 seconds to find.)
Stand: on the counter by the register. Card: in your pocket, apron pocket, or lanyard. That's the entire setup. You're live.
We designed TapFive so that any business owner could set it up alone, in their store, during a slow 5-minute break. No IT. No meeting. No setup fee.
It's the link that opens your Google review box directly. Go to Google Maps → Find your business → Click “Write a review” → Copy the URL. Or search Google for “Google review link generator” and use their free tool. We also email you step-by-step instructions right after purchase.
All cards in one order go to the same link by default. If you want multiple locations (e.g., a 10-pack split across different locations), just note this at checkout and we'll program each batch separately — no extra charge.
Email us and we'll reprogram for free, or we'll send instructions to reprogram yourself — takes about 2 minutes using any free NFC writing app on your phone. Your cards aren't locked to us.
