WHO we ARE
In today’s world, every business needs loyal customers who not only frequent their businesses, but also rate them highly and share positive experiences with their social networks.
That's where we come in.
DreamTrips Members are extremely loyal—to us and our partners. When they aren’t traveling the world together, they love to experience their cities—and they share their experiences through social networks as a way of life. Because they love to travel, having the opportunity to earn DreamTrips Rewards Points drives our members to your business, expands your audience, boosts revenue and elevates your brand. It’s free to be featured in our DreamTrips Preferred Merchant program. You pay only for customers who actually dine in your restaurant—and you can clearly track the return on your investment in the program.
Here's HOW IT WORKS
- 1 You create a DreamTrips Member perk and offer.
- 2 DreamTrips Members find your offer in our app and dine at your restaurant.
- 3 Members use that offer to earn DreamTrips Rewards Points—you earn loyal customers who help you build your brand.

DreamTrips Local is a unique dining and entertainment program that offers DreamTrips Members inside access to the hottest local restaurants, events, perks and rewards. We exclusively cater to a closed membership base comprised of people who are looking for great local businesses to frequent. These are people who aren’t just looking for a one-time deal; they’re looking for a place to spend their money on a regular basis, which helps your overall business.

I am running a promotion with Groupon/Living Social. How are you different from other discounting programs?
Link toggles answer immediately below
Discount programs can devalue your brand by creating the expectation that it isn’t worth paying full price to dine in your restaurant. With DreamTrips Local, we’ve re-engineered the idea of a discount. You offer a perk that fits with your business goals and brand, which can be combined with the opportunity for members to earn DreamTrips Rewards Points. Our members are incentivized to frequent your business, not because they are getting your product/service cheaper, but because they get an exclusive perk and can earn Rewards Points to apply toward their next DreamTrip.

What if I’m already using other discounting services?

Many of our partners use multiple discounting programs to get as much traffic through their doors as possible. We encourage all of our partners to do as much marketing as they need to expand their exposure. However, discounting programs target a very specific area, while DreamTrips Local gives your business local and worldwide exposure so you can bring in customers from around the globe.

I don’t need this program during our busy/tourist season. Can I use this program in the off-season?
Link toggles answer immediately below
Your busy months are often what help sustain a business all year long, so we encourage our partners to make the most of the program by promoting their brand year-round. DreamTrips markets businesses locally and internationally, bringing in new customers and giving you the tools to invite them back. Tourists hear about your business before they even come into town and can decide to spend their money with you rather than your competition.

What if we don’t advertise?

We are more of a private search engine for businesses. We also provide the ability to gain local and global exposure and drive in more customers through our DreamTrips app and social media channels.
