Six tools small shops normally pay separately for, bundled into one free page.

Push notifications

"New stock arrived" — straight to customers who've followed you.

💬

Customers ask "are you open Sunday?" in chat. You answer. No phone tag.

🏆

Competitions

Spin to win, refer-a-friend draws, prize wheels — toggle on or off.

What it looks like in practice

Two examples from shops we've worked with.

Florist

Sunday surprise stock alerts

Cold storage means leftover roses on Mondays. The shop pushes a notification on Sunday night: "20 mixed bouquets, $35 each, first 20 collect tomorrow."

→ Sells out by 11am Monday. No waste.
Pet store

Loyalty + repeat orders

Customer scans QR at checkout. Bot remembers their dog's food brand. 4 weeks later it pings them: "Time to restock — reply YES and we'll have it ready." Loyalty stamp earned automatically.

→ 30% of regulars opt in. Zero admin from the shop.

Common questions, straight answers.

Most shop owners we talk to ask one of these four. Here's the honest version.

"What's the catch? Free is suspicious."
No commission. No setup fee. No per-customer fee. We make money down the line from premium upgrades (paid placement, advanced analytics) — not from your basic listing. The more shops on the platform, the more useful it is for locals, which is why we keep the basics free.
"I'm not technical."
Doesn't matter. We import your shop's info from Google in 30 seconds. You check it, we go live. If something needs changing, you tell us in a Telegram message and we update it.
"I already have Facebook / Google / a website."
Keep them all. Open Locally adds the in-store and repeat-customer layer those don't cover — loyalty, push notifications, chat. Your existing channels reach new customers; this one keeps existing ones.
"What if my customers don't use Telegram?"
It works in any browser too. They scan, they see your page, they're in. About 15 seconds of friction — same as a Wi-Fi QR code at a café. Younger customers (under 40) take to it instantly; older customers we walk through it once.
