You earn. Your referrals earn. Your network grows.
LOCAL Insiders can earn commissions in three different ways.
1
Tier 1 You
Nominate or refer a Merchant
$200 First paid monththen$50 Every month thereafter
Nominate a Merchant through a qualified testimonial OR refer a Merchant through your personal referral link.
When that Merchant becomes a qualifying paying customer, you earn $200 for their first paid month.
Then you continue earning $50 every month for as long as that Merchant remains active and paying.
2
Tier 2 Your direct referrals
Your Insiders refer Merchants
$30 Every month
Invite others to become LOCAL Insiders using your personal Insider Referral Link.
When an Insider you personally referred introduces a qualifying Merchant who becomes a paying customer, you earn $30 every month for as long as that Merchant remains active and paying.
You earn without having to personally introduce that Merchant.
3
Tier 3 Your indirect referrals
Their Insiders refer Merchants
$20 Every month
When one of your directly referred LOCAL Insiders refers another LOCAL Insider, that new person becomes part of your third-tier network.
When that third-tier Insider introduces a qualifying Merchant who becomes a paying customer, you earn $20 every month for as long as that Merchant remains active and paying.
Tier 1 pays $200 for a Merchant’s first paid month, then $50 a month. Tier 2 and Tier 3 pay $30 and $20 a month starting with the first paid month.
As a LOCAL Insider™, you normally earn $200 when your referred Merchant becomes a paying MarketLOCK360™ Member, PLUS $50 every month thereafter for as long as that Merchant remains active and paying.
NOW, YOU CAN EARN EVEN MORE!
Submit at least 20 qualifying Merchant testimonials during a calendar month, and we’ll increase your Tier 1 commissions to:
$250for each qualifying Merchant’s first paid month!
$75EVERY MONTH thereafter for as long as that Merchant remains active and paying AND you maintain your BONUS qualification!
EVERY Testimonial Counts Toward Your BONUS!
Here’s the exciting part: You don’t have to be the FIRST LOCAL Insider to submit a testimonial about a Merchant for it to count toward your monthly BONUS qualification!
Whether you’re the FIRST Insider or a SECONDARY Insider submitting a genuine testimonial about that Merchant, your qualifying testimonial counts toward your monthly goal of 20!
Remember, the first qualifying Insider retains the Tier 1 commission credit for that Merchant. Secondary testimonials count toward your BONUS qualification but do not create an additional commission entitlement.
How Your BONUS Works
Your BONUS qualification is calculated each calendar month, beginning on the 1st and ending on the last day of that month.
Once you reach 20 qualifying Merchant testimonials, your increased Tier 1 commission rates apply retroactively to all eligible Tier 1 commissions earned during that calendar month.
To continue receiving the increased rates, simply submit at least 20 qualifying Merchant testimonials each calendar month.
If you don’t reach 20 in a particular month, your Tier 1 commissions return to the standard $200 first-month and $50 recurring rates for that month. You can qualify again the very next month!
Your Tier 2 and Tier 3 commissions remain unchanged.
20 Testimonials. BIGGER Commissions. EVERY Month!
The MORE You Participate, The MORE You EARN!
No selling. No pressure. Just share your genuine experiences with LOCAL businesses and help great Merchants get DISCOVERED and get CHOSEN!™
A simple illustration
How Much Could You Earn?
Your monthly commissions depend on how many qualifying Merchants you and your referral network introduce who become and remain paying customers.
PLUS: The first paid month of each new qualifying Tier 1 Merchant earns you $200 instead of the ongoing $50.
Start Small. Grow at Your Own Pace.
Some LOCAL Insiders may recommend just a handful of businesses.
Others may choose to introduce dozens of Merchants and build a network of LOCAL Insiders across multiple cities, states or countries.
You decide how far you want to take the opportunity.
These figures are illustrative arithmetic, not typical earnings, projections or guarantees. Actual results depend on successful Merchant conversions, retention and program eligibility.
