LOCAL FOUNDING PARTNER PROGRAMME  

logo and small tagline black.png

Early visibility, founding recognition, and reserved promotional access for businesses joining before launch.

LOCAL FOUNDING PARTNER LAUNCH PACKAGE

The Local founding partner launch package is a limited pre-launch opportunity for local businesses to secure early visibility, founding recognition, and access to selected promotional tools before Tara opens more widely. It is designed for businesses that want to be involved early, be seen early, and benefit from a structured launch package rather than a standard advertising offer.

WHAT YOU GET

As a Local Founding Partner, your package can include:

  1. founding partner recognition on the Tara website

  2. a dedicated business page

  3. homepage founder spotlight eligibility

  4. in-app map visibility at launch

  5. customer offers

  6. staff travel support

  7. referral rewards for qualifying new Tara customers

  8. access to a reserved early promotional window before wider commercial promotion opens
     

Taken together, this gives your business a real early position inside Tara’s launch structure, not just a listing on a page.

Be visible before the platform gets crowded

WHY

?

Transport affects more businesses than they realise.

A late staff member, a missed appointment, or a customer unsure how to get home all have a commercial impact. Better local transport helps customer confidence, staff movement, and access to your business.

This package is for businesses that want practical visibility and an early local advantage.

WHY NOW

?

Value that starts early

You do not have to wait until launch for everything.

Once your page is approved, your business can go live on the Tara website. Your recognition starts early. Your public position starts early.

Then, when Tara launches in your area, your in-app visibility and launch tools can begin.

Founding partners get in before wider promotion opens

For the first 12 months from Launch Day, selected promotional visibility is reserved for founding partners only. That means a clearer launch environment and a stronger early position. After that, no new businesses can join the founding partner package in that area.

HOW IT WORKS

Tara contacts you, or you contact Tara at partnerships@tarataxi.co.uk

If you want to go ahead, Tara sends you a registration link. You submit your details, receive your invoice, and once your place is confirmed and your page is approved, your early visibility begins.

Launch-phase visibility starts when Tara goes live in your area.

Spotlight-Effect.png

Founder spotlight on the homepage 

The Tara homepage showcases 7 Local founding partners at a time, with each logo linking to the partner’s business page.

The spotlight is structured as follows:

  • 1 permanent position for the highest contributor at the application deadline

  • 2 rotating positions refreshed monthly

  • 4 rotating positions refreshed every 2 weeks

 

All placements are set by contribution ranking at the application deadline.

Spotlight placement is visibility only and has no effect on service or platform operations.
