Reach people when they’re near your business.
Businesses send local specials to people nearby who use the free WilDi Maps app. Members earn a share of the ad spend when they tap the WilDi button on a message.
Earnings vary, are usually small, and are not guaranteed.
- For businesses:
- Send your special to people nearby. You pay when a member taps the WilDi button.
- For members:

How it works
A nearby special. Value on both sides.
Step 1: Choose the place.
Pick an area, write your message, and set a budget.
Step 2: Reach members using the WilDi Maps app.
Members have the free WilDi Maps app and opted in to sponsor messages. When a member is in your campaign area, they get your message.
Step 3: Tap the WilDi button. Earn a share.
When it's safe, the member taps the WilDi button. The business is charged, and the member earns their share.
Acknowledging a message does not redeem the special or confirm a visit or purchase. Members must not interact with the app while driving.
Example: the member taps the WilDi button, the business pays, and the member’s share is added to their earnings.
A local business picks the area it wants to reach and writes a special.
Members of WilDi who are nearby get the message in the app.
If it’s relevant, they tap the WilDi button to acknowledge it.
The app confirms it, and the member earns a share of the ad spend.
The business sees every qualifying acknowledgment it paid for.

The app connects nearby specials with member earnings.
The free WilDi Maps app shows members specials near them and keeps track of what they earn. Businesses set up their ads on this website. Members see them in the app.
Earnings depend on available campaigns and eligibility. They are not guaranteed.
See the app →One app. Three places it creates value.
WilDi Golf
Put sponsors into the round.
Courses share sponsor messages at mapped course locations. Golfers get the course map, scorecard and on-course requests in the app. Sponsors pay the course; the course pays WilDi.

WilDi Events
Make sponsors part of the experience.
Organizers share sponsor messages and event information at mapped outdoor locations. Attendees get the event map and event updates in the app. Sponsors pay the organizer; the organizer pays WilDi.
Explore Events →Maps earnings are separate from Golf and Events sponsor interactions.
One app can stay useful after the event.
People who find WilDi at a course or event can keep using the app around town. Sponsors who want to keep reaching them afterward need their own Maps campaign.
See the activity behind your campaign.
See how many members got your message, how many tapped the WilDi button, and what you were charged. Where available, we also report later visits to your business. A visit alone doesn’t prove a purchase.

Questions
Who receives my messages?
Members using the WilDi Maps app who are in your campaign area. Not everyone who walks or drives by. How many you reach depends on how many members are in that area.
How do members earn?
Members earn a share of the ad spend when they tap the WilDi button on a Maps message that meets the campaign rules. Golf and Events sponsor messages don't pay members.
Does the WilDi button redeem a special?
No. The WilDi button confirms you received the message. Using the special is separate and follows the business's own terms. In older app versions the button says Claim or Got it.
People move. Opportunities follow.
