The Center of Local Commerce

NearRise is more than just a directory; it's the digital heartbeat of the local economy. We connect thousands of passionate customers with the entrepreneurs and small businesses that are the backbone of our communities.

We are a trusted, "for-us-by-us" platform, founded by a former small business owner who was tired of 30% commission fees and the 6 different, expensive screens on the counter. A partnership with NearRise means aligning your brand with a movement that is authentic, growing, and deeply engaged with the small business community.

Why Partner With NearRise?

Unmatched Access

Reach a highly targeted, engaged audience of local small business owners (restaurants, salons, barbers, etc.) and the customers who are actively looking to support them.

Authentic Community Trust

We are a mission-driven company. Our users trust us because we were built by a small business owner to solve real problems, not just to extract fees. Your brand benefits from this built-in trust.

Powerful Platform
