Your own page.
Your own address.
Every business in town can have a page here at weymouthlife.co.uk/your-name/, a QR poster that points at it, your logo, photos, hours and today's offer, and your own website linked if you have one. Chippies take orders, guest houses take bookings, taxis take ride requests and trades take quote requests, all through the page.
No commission, ever. No card details held. Not run by a company, just people who live here. Booking.com takes 15 to 22 percent off a Weymouth guest house and Uber Eats takes 30 off a takeaway. We take nought, because a site that taxes its own town is not supporting it.

What you get on day one, free
All of it. There is no locked feature waiting behind a paywall.
Room bookings with a bell
For places to stay: a bell rings when a booking lands and keeps ringing until you answer it. Accept, decline, check them in. Or switch on auto accept and never think about it again.
Direct food orders
Take orders for collection and delivery from your own menu, keeping every penny. Uber Eats would take 30 percent of that. The kitchen screen refreshes itself.
Ride requests for taxis
For licensed drivers and private hire firms: go on duty, show on the map, put a price on a request. The customer chooses, then rings you. Nothing is paid through the site.
Quote requests for trades
Trades: your own page, quote requests to your phone, checked reviews you can reply to. A review only counts once the customer confirms it by email, and nothing is paid through the site.
Live status from your phone
Fully booked from eight. Kitchen closing early. Walk ins welcome. One line, one tap, and it is on your page and in the listings.
Your own page, properly
Photos, description, phone, website, opening hours and today's offer. Yours to edit from your phone, no waiting on anyone and no rebuild.
