Your team helps generate reviews - but most businesses can't see who.

In most businesses, staff ask customers for reviews, but managers can't see which person, table, reception desk, QR code or campaign actually created the result. So great performers stay invisible and bonus conversations get awkward.

  • Unclear attribution

How it works

Four simple steps from scan to recognition.

Personnel Tracking sits quietly on top of your existing NFC cards, QR codes and campaigns - no new app for staff to learn.

  1. 1

    Assign cards or QR codes

    Give each staff member, table, room, reception desk, campaign or location a unique NFC card or QR code.

  2. 2

    Customers scan or tap

    After a positive interaction, the customer taps the NFC card or scans the QR code.

  3. 3

    Ratestar attributes the action

    The review or customer action is connected to the right card, person, campaign or touchpoint - automatically.

  4. 4

    Managers reward performance

    See leaderboards, compare campaigns and use the data to recognize top performers or support bonus decisions.

Make results visible for the whole team.

A live leaderboard helps staff see progress, stay motivated and understand how their effort shapes the business reputation - without spreadsheets or guesswork.

Keep competitions clean and trusted.

When rewards or bonuses are on the table, the leaderboard has to feel trustworthy. Ratestar quietly works in the background to keep the competition fair.

  • Duplicate protection

    Stops obvious repeat attempts from the same device.

  • Device recognition

    Identifies the same device across attempts so the count stays honest.

  • Manager review

    Only attributed, qualified actions count toward the leaderboard.

Recognition motivates people.

Staff are more likely to invite feedback when the process feels fair, visible and rewarding. Ratestar gives managers an easy way to celebrate the people creating great customer moments.

Common questions about Personnel Tracking.

What is Personnel Tracking in Ratestar?

It is the part of Ratestar that connects every review to the right card, staff member, campaign or touchpoint - so managers can see who is creating customer engagement and reward effort fairly.

How are reviews connected to staff members?

Each NFC card or QR code can be assigned to a specific person, role, shift, table, room or campaign. When a customer taps or scans and leaves a review, Ratestar attributes that review to the correct source.

Can each employee have their own NFC card or QR code?

Yes. You can issue individual cards or codes to staff, or share a code at a counter, table, room or department - whatever fits your operation.

Can we track campaigns as well as staff?

Yes. Campaigns sit alongside staff in the leaderboard, so you can compare scratch cards, wheels and QR placements next to individual performance.

Can this help with staff bonuses?

Yes. Ratestar provides clear attribution data that helps managers support bonus or reward decisions. The actual bonus rules stay under your business's control.

Does Ratestar automatically pay bonuses?

No. Ratestar is a tracking and attribution system, not payroll software. It gives you the numbers - your team decides how to act on them.

Can we run monthly competitions?

Yes. The leaderboard and filters are designed for monthly contests, sprints and team-vs-team challenges.

Can managers see top performers?

Yes. The Top performers panel shows a live ranking of staff and campaigns, with reviews collected in the last 30 days.

Can we use this across multiple locations?

Yes. Cards, codes and campaigns can be grouped by location, so you can compare teams while keeping incentives consistent across the business.

How does Ratestar help prevent abuse?

Device recognition, duplicate guards and manager-review flags work together to keep the leaderboard trustworthy when rewards are involved.

Is this employee surveillance?

No. Personnel Tracking is built to support transparent recognition and fair team motivation. It works at the level of cards, roles and shifts - not aggressive personal monitoring.

Can this work for restaurants, hotels, salons, retail and more?

Yes. Cards and codes can map to people, tables, rooms, departments, campaigns or locations - so the same system fits very different operations.

How is this different from Analytics Dashboard?

Analytics Dashboard shows overall customer engagement - views, clicks, CTR and channel performance. Personnel Tracking focuses specifically on attributing review activity to staff members, cards, QR codes and campaigns.
