“Perfect night for my sister's birthday. Special shout-out to Eva, who ran our table of twelve without ever losing that smile.”

You already do the work. Here it's written down in black and white, and it counts. Here's how it works, on one page.

Nothing changes in your service. The program doesn't clock your speed, count your steps or watch your hours. It looks at one thing: what guests write on their own. The only trigger is a happy guest who takes two minutes to say so.
You have your own card and QR code, with your first name on it. You set it down when the guest is clearly happy: at the check, on the way out, after a compliment. Not before, that never works. The best moment is right after a guest has thanked you out loud.
They scan, they leave a rating, and if they're happy they head to their Google review with your first name in front of them. That first name is what counts. A perfect review that names no one is nice, but it triggers nothing. Rough spelling, a nickname, a missing accent: the system still recognizes it.
As soon as the review goes live, the mention shows up on the board and your counter goes up. Nothing to claim, nothing to prove, nothing to jot in a notebook. Everything is time-stamped and there to check. You can see which review triggered which bonus, any time.
Amounts are set by your venue and shown in your space. The counter resets to zero every month, so nobody is left behind for good.
A fixed amount the moment your first name shows up in a positive review. Two mentions in one month, twice the bonus.
The three most-named people get a bonus at month's end, on top of the bonuses they've already earned.
A bonus on whatever your management is pushing right now, with a prize for first place.
Three lines that work, tested on the floor. Pick the one that sounds like you, say it in your own words.
The most effective one. You hand over the card at the same time.
The guest gets right away why the name matters, without a word about money.
When the guest is in a hurry or already standing, go straight to the point.
What we never do: promise the guest anything in exchange for a review, offer a coffee or a discount, push when they hesitate, or write the review for them. A review obtained that way can be removed, and the venue can be penalized. We ask, we don't pay for it.
The leaderboard shows each person's number of mentions. The amounts are visible only to you and your management.
A month with no mention costs nothing. The counter never goes down, it just starts fresh the next month.
When a guest leaves a low rating, they're sent to a private form that reaches management. It's handled internally.
At launch, every existing review is re-read. If a guest named you months ago, the mention is found.
A web page, your first name, your code. No app, no email to hand over.
You see your rank, your mentions, your bonuses and your average rating, updated as reviews come in.
It happens a lot, and it's expected. Typos, missing accents and common nicknames are recognized. If a guest always calls you something else, tell your manager: that nickname is added to your profile and counts as your first name.
The case is spotted when the team is set up. We tell the two of you apart with a detail guests use naturally, or the mention is settled by your manager based on the review's context. No bonus is ever assigned at random.
Kitchen mentions exist, they come through the floor. Colleagues who serve can say your first name to the guest when they compliment a dish, and plenty of reviews name the cook that way. The program counts mentions, not your position in the venue.
