Get discovered by locals
Show up on the map and in the feed when nearby shoppers are browsing for independents and deciding where to go.
Drive real footfall
Post offers shoppers redeem in store with a quick QR scan at the till, so you can see exactly how much footfall each one brings in.
Free to start, pay to grow
Your listing is free forever. Upgrade for featured placement, push notifications and email campaigns whenever you're ready for more.
The unfair advantage
Finally, own your customers.
Every offer you redeem adds a real customer - their name, email and how often they pop in - straight into your own list. It's the kind of loyalty data the big chains built whole empires on, and that independents have never had.
Stop renting reach from Facebook and Deliveroo. Bring your regulars back with your own email & push offers, and keep that relationship for good.

Reach your customers, your way.
Redeem an offer and that shopper joins your list. Bring them back with built-in email, SMS and push. No separate Mailchimp, no agency, no ad spend.

Loyalty, built in
Turn first-timers into regulars.
Set your own rules and locolie does the counting. No plastic stamp cards, no extra app - every code you verify at the till moves that customer closer to a reward, automatically.

- Counts itself - a visit lands every time you verify a code

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Yes, and free forever. On the Free plan you show up in search and on the map, post offers, and redeem them with a QR scan at the till. You only pay if you choose a paid plan for extra reach.
locolie is just for independent UK businesses. We don't list the national chains, and that's the whole point. We're backing local, starting in Newcastle NE1.
You post an offer, a shopper reveals the code in the app, and at the till you scan their QR (or they scan your window sticker). Every redemption is logged, so you can see exactly what footfall each offer drove.
Featured (£19/mo) gets you featured-rail placement, a "Sponsored" badge, priority in search and on the map, and a monthly email feature. Premium (£49/mo) adds top placement, push notifications to nearby shoppers, unlimited email campaigns and an analytics dashboard.
Of course. There are no contracts. Upgrade, downgrade or cancel whenever you like, and changes take effect from your next billing cycle.
Yes, and that's the whole point. Every shopper who redeems an offer joins your own customer list (name, email, visit count), which you can export anytime and market to by email and push. Customers opt in to marketing and it's all GDPR-compliant, but the relationship is yours, not ours and not a chain's.
