Powered Cards

Branded cards that turn every handoff into more business.

A monthly supply of your own branded QR cards, shipped before you run out. Customers scan to book, return, contact you or leave honest feedback. Add an NFC tap stand or premium card once, never on a subscription.

  • As low as $1.10 a card
  • Your brand on the front, not ours
  • 10 free sample cards for qualified businesses

Local SEO

More reviews push your business up the map, one block at a time.

Google ranks local businesses on review count, recency and rating. Powered Cards turn every happy customer into a fresh 5-star review in seconds, so your green zone, the area where you show up in the top 3, spreads out from your front door.

Most happy customers mean to leave a review and simply forget. A card in their hand, or a stand at the counter, gets the review done while they are still standing in front of you.

A steady flow of reviews tells Google you are active and trusted nearby. That is what moves you from page two into the map pack, first around your shop and then across the neighborhoods you serve.

Compared

They sell you a gadget once. We keep reviews coming every month.

Our NFC review cards cost a fraction of theirs, and our stand is priced right in line. And nobody else sends you branded PVC review cards to hand out every month.

Who it is for

Built for businesses that hand something to every customer.

If someone on your team already hands out a receipt, a menu or a business card, a Powered Card can replace it with something people keep and scan.

  • Salons and personal services

    Booking, aftercare, referrals and a neutral review invitation.

    Typical plan: 100 to 250 cards

  • Auto services and detailing

    Service reminders, booking and repeat-visit details.

    Typical plan: 100 to 500 cards

  • Home-service teams

    Job-completion handouts, maintenance tips and contact links.

    Typical plan: 100 to 500 cards

  • Fitness and local retail

    Class schedules, product guidance, memberships and events.

    Typical plan: 100 to 500 cards

  • Hospitality and events

    Menus, reservations, event details and follow-up offers.

    Typical plan: 250 to 1,000 cards

  • Agencies and multi-location groups

    One consistent design with location-specific destinations.

    Typical plan: 1,000 to 2,500+ cards

Run by Marketing Powered

More than a card. A review program that runs itself.

The same AI systems that run our agency work design your cards and follow up with your customers, so you get an agency-grade program at a gadget price.

  • Your card, designed for you

    Our AI pulls your logo, colors and offer from your website and listings, then drafts on-brand layouts. A designer refines them and you approve the proof.

  • A person checks every proof

    QR codes, links and copy are tested automatically, and nothing prints until a person on our team and you have signed off.

  • Review-request emails

    A follow-up email asks every one of your customers for a review. All of them, never only the happy ones, as Google and the FTC require.

  • Refills before you run out

    Usage check-ins and reorder reminders mean the next box arrives on time, and we suggest a smaller plan if you need fewer cards.

How it works

From first sample to steady supply.

Ten white Marketing Powered PVC review cards fanned out, each with the Google logo, gold stars and a QR code
  1. Step 1

    Try 10 cards with your brand

    Qualified businesses get 10 free branded samples so you can see the design, scan the code and test it with real customers.

  2. Step 2

    Approve your proof

    Pick a plan, share your logo and destination, and approve a versioned proof. Nothing prints until you sign off.

  3. Step 3

    First box ships from the U.S.

    Your first order is produced domestically for fast delivery, tested on real phones before it leaves.

  4. Step 4

    Replenished every month

    Before each renewal we check how many you used and adjust the quantity, so you never pay for cards sitting in a drawer.

Review-safe by design.

Fake or incentivized reviews can get a Google profile penalized and violate FTC rules. Powered Cards invite honest feedback and nothing more.

  • Every customer who scans can leave any rating. We never filter out unhappy customers.
  • No discounts, gifts or free cards in exchange for a review.
  • Free samples go to your business to evaluate, never to your customers as a reward.
  • We report scans honestly. A scan means someone opened the page, not that they left a review.

Questions, Answered.

A defined replenishment service: your monthly card quantity, one approved design, one destination, shipping on a set schedule and reorder support. You are not paying to keep using cards you already have.

No. Custom NFC review cards ($10 a card with a 10-card minimum, dropping step by step to $7 a card at 50 or more) and the Powered Review Stand ($40 each, order as many as you need) are one-time purchases. The $250 starter bundle includes 10 NFC cards, a stand and 50 branded PVC cards, with no subscription required.

Every customer you share with us, with no filtering. We never ask only happy customers, and we never offer rewards for reviews, in line with Google and FTC rules.

Yes. You can move between plans, pause or cancel under the terms shown before checkout. Before your second renewal we check usage, and if a smaller plan fits better we will recommend it.

Design setup starts at $49 and is quoted before you pay. Additional designs, personalized codes for each card, special finishes, rush jobs and major artwork changes are quoted separately.

Yours. Your logo and colors lead the front of the card. A small Powered Cards mark sits on the back, clear of the QR code.

Businesses that hand out cards regularly and have a working destination ready, such as a booking page or Google profile. Samples show your real branding so you can judge the product before paying.

First orders are produced in the U.S. once your proof is approved and payment is confirmed. We give you a delivery date before production starts.

Yes. Enterprise plans support one consistent design with a separate destination and allocation for each location, billed on one account.
