Localy Business Plans FAQ
What happens when my 90 days of Founding Business Access end?
Localy does not start a paid subscription automatically. While follow-on plans are coming soon, completed founding businesses move to Localy Free limits and keep permanent eligibility for the $35/month founding-member Starter rate.
How do published and monthly offer limits work?
Localy Free includes 1 live or scheduled offer and 1 new offer per month. Founding Business Access includes 5 live or scheduled offers and 15 new offers per month. Starter includes 10 live or scheduled offers and 20 new offers per month. A published offer is any active, non-ended offer, whether live now or scheduled for later. Each newly created offer, including a draft or recurring offer, uses one monthly creation allowance. Edits do not use another creation allowance; deleting or pausing an offer does not restore one.
What are the separate Event and Highlight allowances?
Events and Highlights have their own allowances, separate from Offers and from each other. Localy Free includes no Events and allows 1 published Highlight and 1 new Highlight per month. Founding Business Access and Starter each allow 5 published Events and 15 new Events per month, plus 3 published Highlights and 6 new Highlights per month. Published limits count current and upcoming posts until they end. Each newly created post, including a draft, uses its monthly creation allowance. Edits do not use another creation allowance; deleting or pausing a post does not restore one. Publishing requires an approved, active business.
Can I edit a published Highlight on Localy Free?
Localy Free includes 1 content-changing Highlight edit after publication per New York calendar month, across the business. Saving without changing content does not use this edit allowance. Draft edits before first publication do not use it. This is separate from the monthly new-Highlight allowance.
What happens to my existing posts when my business moves to Free?
Localy Free keeps the newest current published Offer and the newest current published Highlight visible, ranked by when each was first published. Editing or republishing does not change that first-publication date. Events and older current published posts are hidden, not deleted. Upgrading restores posts that still meet the normal publication, business approval, activity, schedule, and customer eligibility rules. Already-issued Offer activations remain accessible until their original expiry, subject to their existing terms and eligibility rules.
When do monthly post allowances reset?
Offer, Event, and Highlight creation allowances, along with the Free Highlight edit allowance, reset at local midnight on the first day of each calendar month using America/New_York time. Editing, deleting, or pausing a post does not reset monthly usage.
What does Limited Offer Customization mean on Localy Free?
Free supports Localy offer templates, one-time future scheduling, images, offer codes, claim limits, service modes, combinability, and necessary terms. Custom offer wording, recurring schedules, and first-time or returning-customer targeting require Founding Business Access or Starter.
Who receives the $35/month founding-member Starter price?
A business that has used Founding Business Access keeps permanent eligibility for the $35/month Starter rate, even if it later uses Free, cancels, or returns to Localy.
Can I select Starter or Free today?
Starter and explicit Free selection are currently Coming Soon. New approved businesses can begin with 90 days of free Founding Business Access. Existing Starter businesses keep their current plan, and completed founders automatically receive Free limits.
Is the 14-day Starter trial separate from Founding Business Access?
Yes. When Starter launches, its Checkout flow will include a separate 14-day trial. It will begin only after a business explicitly chooses Starter and completes Checkout.
Does Founding Business Access start automatic billing?
No. Founding Business Access does not require a card and never starts a paid plan automatically. A paid subscription can begin only after Starter launches and a business explicitly completes Stripe Checkout.
What does email marketing on eligible Starter offers mean?
Email marketing is a future Starter feature and is not active today. Eligibility and placement will depend on offer rules, customer preferences, and Localy visibility standards.
Do I need to replace my current business systems?
No. Localy works alongside your current point-of-sale and operating systems. Localy activity is not a substitute for your own transaction, inventory, scheduling, or accounting records.
