Why local businesses pay creators to post
A local business posts a promotion, creators share it with their own promo codes, and every sale tracks back to the creator who sent it. The numbers below come from independent published research on how people choose local businesses, not from Dossiay’s own results.

trust recommendations from people they know more than any other channel.

Exclusive
Give your followers a price they can only get from you
Pick a promotion you would recommend anyway and get your own promo code. The price lives behind that code, so there is no walk-in version and no coupon site carrying it.

Earn
Get paid every time someone uses your code
You earn commission on every sale your code brings in. A business can also pay you a set amount to post, and the two stack on the same promotion.
Why creators post with Dossiay
No pitching. No invoicing. No waiting on a brand to answer your DMs.
Open
Your size is not the test
No follower minimum and no application to pitch. Creator accounts are invite only for now, so join the waitlist and we email you an invite code when a place opens.
Protected
The money is committed before you post
Accept an offer and the business is charged on the spot. The payment is held before you do the work, and once you submit your post it can no longer be cancelled.
Simple
Keep the posting. Drop the chasing.
Pick a deal, share your code, get paid. Every sale is credited through your code and your cut arrives without an invoice.
Creator questions, answered
How do creators get paid?
Two ways, and they stack. You earn 10% of every sale made with your promo code, plus 90% of any set amount a business pays you to post, and it all collects in your Dossiay wallet.
Do I need a lot of followers?
No. There is no follower minimum and no application, but creator accounts are invite only for now, so the way in is the waitlist.
Does it cost anything to join?
Nothing. Joining is free, and promoting stays free once you are in, codes and tracked links included.
Do I have to accept an offer?
No. You can accept it, counter once, or decline, and declining still leaves you free to promote the deal for 10% commission.
When do I get my money?
Commission is credited as sales come in. An accepted offer releases when the business approves your post, or automatically 5 days after you submit it, and payouts clear in 3 business days.
Am I protected when a business pays me?
Yes. The business is charged the moment you accept and the money is held before you post. Once you submit, the offer cannot be cancelled.
What kinds of businesses can I promote?
Local ones. Restaurants and cafés, gyms and studios, salons and spas, shops and local services, all places your followers can walk into.
Is Dossiay worth it with a small following?
Yes. Nielsen’s 2021 Trust in Advertising Study found 88% of people trust recommendations from someone they know above any other channel, and a few hundred nearby followers are exactly that to a neighborhood restaurant.
What do I have to post?
Whatever you would normally post, with your promo code in it. No script, no set number of posts.
Will this change how my followers see me?
You choose which promotions to share, so that stays yours. Your followers get a price they cannot reach without your code instead of paying extra for it.
Can I promote more than one business?
Yes. Promote as many live deals as you want, each with its own code and tracked link. No deal is locked to one creator.
What if the deal sells out before I post?
You are still paid in full on an accepted offer. A commission-only promotion stops earning once the quantity is gone, so post while it is live.
