For Business Owners
Discover the benefits
Using Foo-Kaz offers several compelling benefits for local businesses, especially those in the hospitality, service, tourism sectors and even expats. Here’s a breakdown of the key advantages:
Reach Authentic Travelers
Foo-Kaz targets travelers looking for real local recommendations rather than algorithm-driven or touristy results. That means:
- Your business is discovered by users who value authenticity.
- You connect with customers who are likely to appreciate and promote your unique offering.
Increased Visibility
Depending on your plan, you get enhanced exposure:
- Higher-tier plans grant you visibility placement in listings.
- More business categories mean you appear in more searches.
- Social media integration and branding boost your visibility.
Zero Clutter, Real Insights
Unlike other platforms filled with fake reviews or sponsored content:
- Foo-Kaz curates recommendations from locals only.
- Your listing carries more credibility—you’re featured because of your quality, not because you paid for reviews.
Business Sales Channels
Business Sales Channels refer to the types of services or industries your business belongs to. These categories help users find relevant recommendations easily, and they define how and where your business will appear in the app or on the site.
Examples:
- Food & Drink (e.g., Restaurants, Bars, Cafés, Ice Cream Shops)
- Nightlife (e.g., Clubs, Lounges)
- Sightseeing (e.g., Historical Spots, Viewpoints)
- Shopping (e.g., Boutiques, Souvenir Shops, Markets)
- Services (e.g., Hairdressers, Tattoo Studios, Bike Rentals)
- Entertainment (e.g., Escape Rooms, Theaters, Events)
- Health & Wellness (e.g., Pharmacies, Gyms, Spas)
Choosing the right categories increases your visibility to travelers looking for specific types of experiences. Want help picking the best ones for your business?
Business Branding & Design
Showing a logo and header image may seem simple, but it carries some real strategic benefits – especially in a travel-focused context where users are choosing quickly and often emotionally.
- Instant Brand Recognition
- Professionalism & Credibility
- First Impressions Count
- Stand Out
Featured Listing
A featured listing on Foo-Kaz is a premium placement option that gives your business extra visibility and prominence within the app. It’s one of the most effective tools to stand out from the crowd, especially in a competitive location like Split.
- Top Placement: your business appears at the top of relevant categories or search results, ahead of non-featured listings
- Highlighting & Visual Emphasis: Featured listings includes visual highlighting and your logois larger or more prominently displayed.
Enhance Your Visibility
Foo-Kaz offers featured listings with extended radius. This means a business isn't limited by the default search area set by the user — instead, it can ensure visibility to potential customers even if they’re slightly outside the typical geographic filter.
For example, if a local tour company operates across a broader area or a restaurant offers delivery beyond its immediate neighborhood, they can set a larger service radius. This gives them the flexibility to appear in searches for nearby users who may not be right next door but are still within reach.
The result? Users get more relevant options based on what’s actually accessible to them, and businesses reach the right audience without needing to rely on ads or sponsored placements. It’s a smarter, fairer way to connect locals and travelers with services that fit their needs — all in real time and completely free to use.
