Generosity Pays!
Most businesses have at least one slow day a month. Many have several slow days a week. But overhead doesn't take a day off... staff, rent, and other costs keep running even on slow days.
LocalVIP was designed to fill those gaps and bring paying customers on the days you need them most.
70% to 80% of something beats 100% of nothing on slow days.
Google, Facebook, TV, radio, billboards... they all charge you whether it works or not. You're paying for impressions, not customers.
LocalVIP is "Pay for Performance." You pay nothing until a real customer walks in and makes a purchase. The risk is 100% on us.
"Pay for Performance" beats "Pay and Pray". Especially on slow days.
Groupon is worse... after the discount and fees, you're netting 30 cents on the dollar and training customers to wait for a deal.
LocalVIP: only has a 10% success fee. Only on the days that you choose. And, 75% goes back into the community. You win. Your customer wins. And your community wins.
No risk. Low cost. Slow days only. And, everyone wins together!
Most platforms take a massive cut before you see a dollar. LocalVIP charges a flat 10% success fee, and only after you've already been paid.
You also set your own cash back offer for customers. That's completely separate from our fee... think of it as running a sale on your slowest day to get more customers to come in.
No risk. Low cost. Slow days only. Best of all worlds.
Schools and restaurants have been doing community giveback days for decades. That said, it can seem like a full time job if you are coordinating with a different school or nonprofit every week. We take care of that for you.
LocalVIP takes that same proven idea and scales it. Our app connects many schools with many local businesses who choose which day(s) to participate and what offer to make. Turning your slow days into busy days while building your community brand.
Everyone Wins. And you get loyal customers that care.
Getting started takes minutes. Growing your slow days takes one good offer.
Every business has one. A Tuesday lunch that never fills. A Monday that drags. You choose the day and set the offer. We handle everything else.
LocalVIP markets your offer to local shoppers already motivated to support community businesses. Schools and nonprofits share it with their networks.
Customers pay through the app. You get paid. A local school gets a donation automatically. Our 10% success fee comes only after it all goes through.
75% of our gross income flows back to the community. We all win together.
Instant cash back the moment they pay. You set the offer. They keep every penny of it.
Community-motivated shoppers who discover you through a cause they care about come back without needing a deal.
A portion of every transaction flows automatically to a local school or cause your customer chose. Zero extra work from you.
These business owners didn't believe a new app could move the needle. Here's what happened.
"Our Tuesday night was always dead. We ran a LocalVIP Giveback Day and had our busiest Tuesday ever. The customers came back the following week without even needing a deal."
"I was skeptical about another marketing app. But the 'pay only when it works' model made it a no-brainer to try. We brought in 18 new clients in our first month."
"The school angle is brilliant. Parents download the app to support their kids' school, then they find us and become regulars. It's a totally different kind of customer."
Everything you need to know before you apply.
LocalVIP is a mobile app that connects local shoppers with top-rated local businesses through exclusive cash back deals tied to community causes. You set the offer and the day. We market it to local people who are motivated to spend at businesses that give back. When a customer uses LocalVIP to make a purchase, you pay a 10% success fee, only after a real customer walks through your door and pays their bill.
Groupon and similar platforms charge you upfront, take a large cut, and send you deal-hunters who rarely return at full price. LocalVIP customers are community members motivated by supporting local businesses and the causes they care about. You pay nothing upfront, and only a small 10% after they've already paid you. The community cause element creates genuine emotional loyalty that drives repeat visits without needing to offer discounts every time.
No. You control the offer completely. You set your own cash back amount for customers. That is separate from LocalVIP's 10% success fee. Most partners run a modest cash back offer on their slowest day. On a day that was previously empty, even a small offer works strongly in your favor.
A Giveback Day is any day you choose to participate. LocalVIP promotes your offer to local shoppers, and a portion of every transaction automatically flows to a school or cause your customers choose to support. There are no requirements for how often you participate. Most businesses start with one slow day per week and add more once they see results.
