Your followers eat local. Give them a free month.
Local Plate helps people discover independent restaurants, with a welcome perk on their first visit to each one. Get your own code, share the spots you love, and your followers get their first month of Local Plate free.
What Local Plate is
A membership app for people who would rather find the neighborhood spot than the chain.
Independent restaurants only
Every partner is a local, independent restaurant in Tampa Bay or St. Pete. No chains.
A perk on the first visit
Members get one welcome perk the first time they visit each partner, like a dessert, a starter or a house drink.
Built for regulars
After that first visit, members come back as regular guests. That’s how the restaurants you feature win.
One simple membership
Members browse for free. The Community Pass unlocks perks and priority booking.
How your code works
One code, yours alone. It’s how we know who you brought in.
We make your code
Usually your name or handle, like YOURNAME.
You share it
In your videos, captions, bio or stories, whenever you feature a Local Plate spot.
Followers sign up
They enter your code when they create their account in the app.
They get a month free
Their first month of the Community Pass is free, instead of the usual free trial.
What’s in it for you
- Something real to give your audience. A free month is an easy yes for followers who love eating out.
- Places worth filming. A growing list of independent restaurants across Tampa Bay and St. Pete, each with a perk to show on camera.
- Your numbers, tracked. We see every sign-up that uses your code and can share how your audience responded.
- A local team you can reach. Two founders, not a faceless platform. Questions go straight to us.
- Paid partnerships. For the right fit, we’ll talk about compensation. Ask when you reach out.
Who we’re looking for
- Food creators in Tampa Bay and St. Pete, on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube or a newsletter.
- Any size. A small, engaged local audience matters more to us than a big national one.
- Honest reviews. We never script your opinion of a restaurant.
Get your creator code
Email us your name, your handles and where you post. We’ll set up your code and send you everything you need to get started.
Codes work for new members when they create their account. One free month per member; after that the Community Pass renews at its regular price unless cancelled. Please disclose any partnership with Local Plate the way your platform and the FTC require (for example, with #ad or the platform’s paid-partnership label).
