Community Rewards

As your city grows on 8-L, so does its Community Fund.

Every market has its own Community Fund. A portion of the advertising revenue earned in that market is set aside to say thank you to the locals who help make it stronger.

Businesses advertise

Local Featured Placements fund the platform.

Community Fund grows

A portion of that revenue flows into each market's fund.

Locals contribute

Add businesses, share photos, refer friends — meaningful help.

How qualification works

Meaningful help, not points chasing

By default, 8% of advertising revenue generated in a participating market flows into that market’s Community Fund. The share may be configured differently for special markets or campaigns. Members who complete meaningful, approved actions — adding businesses, improving listings, referring locals — can become eligible for that market’s Community Rewards. Rewards are currently fulfilled manually, and the format and timing may vary by market. Not every user receives a reward, not every market always has an active reward period, and no purchase is necessary to participate where legally required.

  • Help improve your local market.
  • Support independent local businesses.
  • Refer neighbors who care about local.
  • Share photos and honest visit stories.

Community Rewards are a thank-you, not a guarantee. Low-quality or spam submissions do not qualify.

Past Community Rewards

Recognition, not ranking

Once the first monthly Community Rewards are awarded, we'll recognize contributors here with their permission. Winners are always thanked, never ranked.
