EatLocally connects employers, restaurants, and chambers of commerce through one simple card. Employees eat local. Restaurants get full-price customers. Cities thrive.
Virtual Visa added to Apple Wallet. Employee funds it with their own money. Works at participating local restaurants.
Walk to a local restaurant. Tap the card. Normal Visa transaction. Restaurant gets full menu price. Nothing changes for them.
After each purchase, a cashback reward is credited to the employee's card — funded by their employer's sponsorship. Everyone wins.
Mandates create resentment. Free pizza gets old. Company cafeterias are expensive. DoorDash keeps people at their desks.
What if lunch was the incentive? "Come to the office. Walk to a great local restaurant. Earn cashback rewards."
That's a reason to come in. That's a reason to explore the neighborhood. That's measurable engagement.
Track lunch participation, office attendance lift, employee satisfaction, and local economic impact. Real data for leadership.
Cheaper than catering. More effective than mandates. Tax-deductible as a sponsorship. Pay only for actual usage.
Custom-branded card in Apple Wallet. Table toppers at 50+ restaurants. Monthly impact reports for your CSR story.
Corporate sponsors pay dues but get logos and networking. You can't prove economic impact. Restaurants are members but don't see direct value.
What if every sponsorship dollar generated trackable local economic activity? And restaurants paid you for access to that spending pool?
#EatLocalCupertino. #TasteOfAustin. #DineDTLA. You brand it. You own it. We power it.
Restaurants pay $99-249/month for featured placement in daily emails to all cardholders. 50% is yours. New revenue from existing members.
"Your sponsorship drove $500K to local restaurants this year." Real data. Measurable ROI. Sponsors renew because they can prove impact.
Zero cost to launch. We build and operate the platform.
You've been burned by Groupon. You won't discount. You won't install an app. You won't change your POS. We know.
EatLocally doesn't ask you to do any of that. Customers pay full price with a normal Visa card. You just get more of them.
Hundreds of local employees have money earmarked to spend at local restaurants. Their card only works at places like yours.
Customer taps their phone. POS shows a normal Visa transaction. You settle normally. You don't even know it's an #EatLocal card.
Pay $99/month to be highlighted in the daily "What's for Lunch?" email sent to every cardholder. Top placement = more foot traffic.
Weekly reports: how many #EatLocal customers visited, total revenue from the program, and how you compare to other local spots.
Chamber members are automatically included. No signup required.
Launching in Cupertino. Expanding to every city that wants to keep its lunch dollars local.
