Today we’re launching Proxi Subscriptions, a powerful new way for Proxi creators to earn recurring revenue from the maps, guides, and experiences they already maintain.

Subscriptions are designed around a simple idea:

Most Proxi content creates ongoing value. Now you can get paid for it on an ongoing basis.

With Proxi Subscriptions, creators typically monetize in two distinct ways:

1. By selling access to their audience
2. By selling ongoing placement, memberships, or sponsorships to businesses

Both can live on the same map or guide.

The Two Ways Proxi Creators Use Subscriptions

1. Sell Subscriptions to Your Audience

This is the most familiar model.

Creators charge their audience a weekly, monthly, or yearly fee for access to:

• Guides
• Gated maps
• Passport challenges
• Scavenger hunts

Examples:

• A $5/month guide to NYC pizza
• A $10/month family-friendly activities guide that’s updated seasonally
• A yearly pass to local hikes, attractions, or events

Subscriptions work especially well for evergreen content that evolves over time. You can continue adding new places, updating recommendations, and messaging subscribers when something changes.

Your audience pays for access because the content stays current.

2. Sell Subscriptions to Businesses, Members, or Sponsors

This is where Proxi Subscriptions become especially powerful for community builders.

Creators can charge businesses or organizations recurring fees to:

• Be listed on a map or guide
• Maintain membership placement in a directory
• Receive featured or sponsored placement
• Participate in an ongoing guide or experience

Instead of charging a one-time “pay to be on the map” fee, businesses subscribe to stay visible.

When a subscription is active, the point appears on the public map.
If a business cancels, the point automatically becomes inactive on the public version — no manual cleanup required.

This model works beautifully for:

• Member directories
• Downtown or Main Street maps
• Ongoing restaurant or retail guides
• Long-running community resources

Subscriptions for Sponsorships and Promotions

Subscriptions also make it easy to sell ongoing sponsorships.

Creators can offer recurring sponsorship tiers that include:

• Elevated map placement
• Featured points or categories
• Messaging access to guide participants
• Long-term promotion inside a living guide

Instead of rebuilding sponsorship packages for every event, creators can offer monthly or yearly sponsorships tied to an asset that lives year-round.

Subscriptions + Crowdsourcing

Subscriptions integrate directly with Proxi’s crowdsourcing tools.

You can:

• Invite businesses to add themselves to a map
• Require a subscription as part of the submission flow
• Use logic to show payment only when sponsorship or promotion is selected

This makes it easy to turn a crowdsourced map into a self-sustaining directory.

Who Proxi Subscriptions Are For

Subscriptions are ideal for creators who maintain ongoing value.

Influencers and Content Creators

Monetize curated recommendations, local expertise, and updated guides without constantly launching new products.

Main Streets, Chambers, and Downtown Organizations

Charge recurring member dues, directory fees, or sponsorships tied directly to visibility and engagement.

DMOs and Tourism Organizations

Support evergreen guides and experiences that live well beyond a single event or season.

Community Builders and Nonprofits

Fund ongoing resources, challenges, and educational content through modest recurring support.

Why This Matters

Subscriptions turn Proxi maps and guides into long-term revenue assets.

Instead of:

• One-time fees
• Short-lived campaigns
• Rebuilding sponsorships from scratch

You now have:

• Predictable income
• Clear value exchange
• Assets that grow more valuable over time
