How to Share Your Referral Link and QR Code
LocalZ Support
Last Update 2 months ago
Once you’re registered as a LocalZ Community Affiliate (LCA), you’ll receive a unique referral link and QR code that tracks all your referrals. Any business that signs up for a paid directory listing using your link or code will be permanently tied to your account — and you’ll earn 50% of their subscription, including renewals.
Sharing your referral tools is key to your success. Here’s how to use them effectively.
Log in to your Affiliate Dashboard and locate:
Your referral link — a unique URL you can copy and share online
Your QR code — which can be downloaded and printed for offline promotion
Both tools are tied to your account, and LocalZ tracks all activity from clicks to conversions.
Online Promotion
Post it on your fundraising group’s website or blog
Share on your personal or organization’s social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram, X-Twitter, etc.)
Include it in email newsletters or email signatures
Send it directly to local businesses via DM or email with a personal note
Printed Materials
Add it to flyers, posters, or handouts promoting your fundraiser
Include it on sponsorship packets or local outreach kits
Use the QR code on signs at events, booths, or bulletin boards
Face-to-Face Conversations
Talk to local business owners you know and show them your QR code on your phone
Keep printed cards or handouts with your link or code handy
Tips for Sharing Effectively
Focus on local businesses who would benefit from directory exposure
Be clear that you’re raising funds — and they’re supporting a local cause by signing up
Use phrases like:
“Support our fundraiser by listing your business on LocalZ”
“Earn visibility for your business while helping us raise money”
Follow up — some businesses need a reminder or a second look before they act
What Happens When They Sign Up
As long as they use your referral link or QR code, the business is tracked to you
You’ll be credited automatically if they subscribe within the 60-day cookie window
You’ll earn 50% commission on their subscription — and again when they renew
