Loca operates a mobile app that pays consumers cash for visiting and promoting local businesses. Users browse a map of nearby restaurants, cafes, gyms, barbers and other independent venues, visit one, then upload a receipt or short video to earn cash into a Loca wallet they can transfer to a bank account. On the other side, local business owners run self-serve campaigns with a set budget and targeting radius, paying out only after a new customer makes a purchase. The app is live in Austin, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Los Angeles, Portland and Eugene.
What sets it apart
Pays real cash rather than points or punch cards, and charges businesses on a performance basis where rewards only trigger after a new customer actually buys, turning ad spend into verified foot traffic and authentic customer-made content instead of influencer campaigns.
A consumer iOS and Android app for discovering nearby independent businesses and earning cash rewards for visiting them, uploading a receipt, or creating short promotional videos and sharing them with friends.
