Premium terms

What Premium includes

• A Sponsored spot in the row at the top of page 1 of your main service’s page for your home city, labeled Sponsored. A page shows at most three; if yours is full, we tell you before you pay.
• Your own listing without the row of other businesses in your trade.
• Google Business Profile optimization, once, when Premium starts. You give us manager access to your profile and keep ownership of it. Google decides what it shows; we can’t promise how it ranks you.
• A local visibility report, once, when Premium starts, sent by email.
• Your 5-star Google reviews on your listing, shown live from Google with a link to all your reviews there. Google decides which reviews it shares (up to five at a time); we show the 5-star ones among them, so how many show can change. They depend on Google: if Google stops providing them, we may stop showing them, and the price stays the same.
• Up to 20 gallery photos (a free listing shows 3) and your social media links on your listing.
• Setting up your listing for you from the details and photos you send us.

The values shown next to the one-time services on our Pricing page are what those services cost on their own; with Premium they are included at no extra charge.

Premium doesn’t change where your business appears in the regular list of businesses, which is the same for everyone.

Price and payment

Premium is $299 a year, billed yearly by invoice. Prices are in US dollars. Premium starts when we receive your payment and runs for one year.

The founding offer

The first 10 businesses to pay for Premium pay $249 a year for as long as they stay on Premium, and carry the Founding Business badge on their listing while they stay.

While your founding invoice is out, we hold a founding spot for you for 14 days. Founding businesses are numbered in the order they pay. Once 10 have paid, the offer closes for good: spots don’t reopen when a founding business leaves.

Renewing

We send a renewal invoice before your year ends. Your next year runs from the end of the last one, or from the day you pay if that’s later, so you never pay for days without Premium.

A founding business can renew at the founding price until 30 days after its year ends. After that, Premium is available at the regular price, without the badge.

Stopping

You can stop any time by not renewing or by telling us. Premium runs to the end of the year you paid for, then your listing goes back to a free listing: it shows its first 3 photos and no social links or Google reviews, and nothing is deleted. We don’t refund part of a year.

No guarantees

Premium makes your listing stand out and gives you advice, but we can’t promise calls, customers, sales or search rankings. Your dashboard shows your listing’s views, clicks and requests.

Changes

We may change these terms or the price of Premium for future years. We’ll tell you before your renewal. The price of a year you have paid for never changes, and the founding price stays as described above.
