Featured placement
Being listed here is free and stays free. Featured placement is the one thing we sell: your listing at the top of your trade page and your borough page, with a Featured mark on it. It is paid promotion, we label it as promotion everywhere it appears, and it is never a rating or a recommendation.

What it costs, and how many slots exist
Three featured businesses per borough page, six per city-wide trade page. That is the whole inventory and it does not grow, because a page where a third of the cards are Featured has sold the mark's meaning to buy one more subscription.

Things that are not about position
You do not have to buy placement to get more out of your page. These change what your listing can hold, or put something new on the site.
Verified business
$59.99 a year
The phone call we already make to confirm a claim, plus a business-number check against your trading name, and a Verified mark that says we did it. Claiming stays free and loses nothing by your not buying this.
Job posting
$49.99 for 30 days
Salons and kitchens hire constantly. Your vacancy on your page, on your trade page and on the jobs board. A person reads every advert before it goes up.
Deals
Free one at a time · or $24.99 to promote a run
Putting an offer up costs nothing once you have claimed your page - it is the thing that gives somebody a reason to come, and taxing that would be daft. The $24.99 puts it at the top of the deals board and on the home page for however long it runs.
Event listing
$34.99 an event
A festival, a pop-up, a trunk show, an expo. Listed until the day it happens.
What you never pay for
If we ever start charging for something on this list, we have broken the deal.
- Your own page, with your address, your hours and your phone number on it
- Claiming that page, and editing everything on it afterwards
- Your own photographs, your description and your prices
- Adding staff as editors so it is not all on you
- Replying to every review you get
- Appearing in search, in your trade page and in your borough page
- No commission on anything you earn. Not now, not later.
