Chrome Extension — GBP Audit, AI Replies & QR on Google Maps

Frequently asked questions

What is the GBP Local Ranker Chrome extension?

It is a free Chrome extension that adds Google Business Profile (GBP) tools directly on Google Maps and Google Search — audits, AI review replies, category insights, local scan, and review QR posters — without leaving the listing page.

Is the Chrome extension free to install?

Yes. You can install it free from the Chrome Web Store. Free install includes core Maps tools. Plan 1 (₹99/mo) and Plan 2 (₹199/mo) unlock higher limits and full GMB support via a license key from Extension Connect.

How do I activate Plan 1 or Plan 2?

Sign in at gbplocalranker.com, open Extension Connect, choose Monthly or Annual, pay with Razorpay, then copy the license key and paste it in the extension Account tab. The license is created only after successful payment.

What is the difference between Plan 1 and Plan 2?

Both include unlimited review replies and unlimited review QR codes. Plan 1 allows 5 audit report generations. Plan 2 adds unlimited audits, findings categorization, and full Google Business Profile (GMB) support features for serious operators and agencies.

Does annual billing save money?

Yes. Annual billing uses the same rule as our platform plans: pay for 10 months and get 12 (2 months free). For example, Plan 1 annual is ₹990/year and Plan 2 annual is ₹1,990/year at current monthly prices.

Can I create review QR posters for any Google Business Profile?

Yes. Unlimited QR codes for any Google Business Profile are included in every extension plan. Open a listing on Maps, generate a professional review QR poster, then download or print it for the store or client.

Does the extension work only on my own listings?

No. You can open any public Google Maps listing to run supported tools — useful for competitor research, client audits, and agency workflows. Always follow Google policies and only manage profiles you are authorized to edit.

What tools appear on Google Maps listings?

Inline tools typically include Basic audit, AI content helpers, Rank Check, Review tools, Post tools, and Local Scan, plus a full side panel for category finder, deeper audits, and AI generators for posts, descriptions, Facebook content, and Q&A.

Is this the same as the full GBP Local Ranker web platform?

The extension is the Maps-first companion. The web platform adds broader multi-location dashboards, grid ranking, reporting, team access, and subscription plans. Many users install the extension for daily Maps work and use the platform for deeper campaigns.

Where do I get support if my license key does not activate?

Confirm you copied the full key from Extension Connect after payment, then paste it into the extension Account tab. If it still fails, contact support with your account email and payment ID — we can re-issue or verify the license from the server store.
