Overview

Localyte was started several years ago

Several thousand people have downloaded the directory

Over 450 businesses joined

Only local businesses and locally-owned franchises allowed to list

Started as a gift card platform, but has since expanded to a free business directory with engagement features

We've been featured on WDBJ7, WSLS, The Roanoke Times, and other media

The app is a single place for
ONLY local businesses


No national brands or chains are allowed on the app and the directory listing is FREE for locally owned small business.

Other things you can do in the app for free:

  • Once per week, we send a notification out to Localyte users.  You can add a note that’s included in those weekly notifications.
  • You can list free events.
  • To make your business stand out in the listing, you may upload a hi-res image or logo (we highly recommend this step)
All of these things are done through the dashboard you will see once you register.
 
Paid options, but NEVER required
 
We also offera the capability to sell tickets to your events or sell Localyte gift cards, but these features are not required to list in the directory.
