Local businesses helping other local businesses build stronger offers.
A BragAbout business can offer a product, service, or certificate to other member businesses at a special price. Another business can buy it and add it to their own Offer as something extra for the customer — making that Offer more attractive to potential customers.

LOCAL BUSINESSES HELPING LOCAL BUSINESSES CREATE STRONGER OFFERS
BragAbout businesses can make special products, services, and certificates available to other member businesses. Those businesses can use them to make their own Offers more attractive to potential customers.
EXAMPLE: A painting company might add a restaurant certificate, driveway wash, massage, coffee package, or another local perk as Customer Gets — giving a Bragger something extra to put in front of a potential customer.

Prepaid inventory model
Partner Perks use a prepaid inventory model — purchasing businesses buy actual perk inventory upfront, before attaching or issuing it through an Offer.
Initial Purchase
10 Units
Acquired upfront from local partner
Offer Attachment & Issue
Issued to qualifying customer
Available In Stock
9 Units
Remain owned & ready in inventory
This is a prepaid inventory model — the purchasing business owns the perk inventory they buy, rather than paying providers after customer redemption.
Perk policies and guarantees
Clear, transparent terms to ensure every purchased perk is protected and redeemed reliably.
If a Perk provider later cancels or leaves BragAbout, they stop offering new perk inventory for sale.
However, any perk inventory already purchased by other BragAbout businesses remains valid and must be honored through its stated expiration date. Leaving BragAbout does not invalidate perks another business has already paid for.
- Current perk inventory stops new sales immediately
- Previously purchased vouchers remain valid per provider terms
- Redemptions are honored through the full stated expiration
Provider terms require previously purchased perks to remain valid through their stated expiration.
Partner Perks may have expiration dates. Expiration dates are clearly shown before purchase.
We encourage reasonable validity periods to give your customers ample time to redeem. Specific expiration requirements are set by the provider and agreed upon at purchase time.
- Dates are visible up front prior to purchase
- Providers establish custom validity schedules
- Ample redemption windows ensure smooth customer experiences
All terms and dates are locked in and agreed upon at purchase time.
Questions about an active perk or specific redemption window? Contact your partner business directly or reach out through support.
Use partner perks to attract new customers
Attach purchased vouchers from local business partners as the “Customer Gets” reward on your referral Offers.
Direct cash reward paid when their referred client completes the project.
Complimentary driveway cleaning
Fulfilled by River Valley Pressure Washing upon project sign-off.
Illustrative example: If Paint Pros purchased 10 driveway cleaning certificates, issuing one through an Offer is intended to reduce their available inventory from 10 to 9.
Inventory updates as perks are issued
When you attach and issue a perk voucher through an Offer, it is designed to deduct from your available inventory balance.
Completely optional enhancement
The 'customer gets' bonus is flexible. You can publish referral offers with or without partner perks.
Private until published
Purchased perks stay inside your private inventory until you attach them to a live, public Offer.
The “customer gets” portion of an Offer is optional — businesses can still create and offer referral Offers without purchasing or attaching a Partner Perk; Partner Perks are an optional enhancement.
Grow your local reach through member perks
Active BragAbout Business members — including Founding Businesses — will eventually be able to list and manage approved Partner Perks on the Local Perk Exchange.
