Your Free Hyper-Sharable Digital Business Card
Every Platinum Directory member gets a fully customizable digital business card at their own personal link. It is not just a contact page. It is a living, shareable profile that earns rewards every time someone visits it.
Your Face, Your Brand
Upload your profile photo, set a cover image background, and write your bio. Your card looks like you, not a generic template.
Record or Embed Your Intro Video
Record directly from your phone using just your PIN, upload a clip from your camera roll, or embed from YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, or X. Your intro plays right on your card.
One Link, Every Platform
Your card is one URL you put everywhere. Instagram bio, email signature, text message, printed QR code. Every visit is tracked. Every click earns.
Branded QR Code You Can Print Anywhere
Download your gold-bordered PD-branded QR code and put it on business cards, flyers, storefronts, or slide decks. When someone scans it, your referral link is already embedded.
Edit From Your Phone, Anytime
Set a PIN and update your card from any phone with no login required. Change your video, swap your photo, update your bio between meetings.
Every Link Tracks Back to You
See exactly how many people viewed your card, downloaded your contact, clicked your links, and where they came from. Full analytics built in.
Your card is wired with your referral link automatically.
Every outbound link on your card, including your website, your social profiles, and the Smart Offers you pin to it, automatically carries your referral code. When someone taps through and takes action, you earn points. No setup required. It is built in from the moment your card is created.
Pin Your Favorite Deals Directly to Your Card
Add Smart Offers from Temecula Valley businesses directly to your digital card. Share a wine tasting voucher, a spa deal, or a restaurant special alongside your contact info. When someone buys through your card, you earn a 5% commission on the sale.
Three Ways to Earn Starting the Moment You Join
You do not have to refer businesses to earn. Here is every way rewards add up.
Refer a Business, Earn Monthly
When a local business subscribes through your link, you earn 5% of their monthly plan in points every month they stay active. One Elite referral at $3,500 per month earns you $175 a month and $2,100 a year.
Share a Listing or Deal, Earn Points
Share any business listing or Smart Offer deal and earn points every time a real person clicks through. Drive 100 or more unique visitors in a day and earn a traffic milestone bonus on top. Your first validated share on each of 7 platforms earns an additional 500 point bonus.
Refer a Friend, Earn a Bonus
When someone signs up using your referral link, you earn 500 points instantly. When they claim their digital card, you earn 1,000 more.
Who and How Others Are Promoting to Earn the Most
Food bloggers who post about wine country. Instagram accounts dedicated to local eats and hidden gems. TikTok creators who showcase the Valley's best experiences. Real estate agents, wedding planners, local deal hunters, chamber members, parents, and neighbors who text "you have to check this place out."
If you already create content, every post you have ever made about a Temecula business is money you left on the table until now.
Every link you share carries your referral code. Every click someone makes on your link earns you points. Every person who signs up through you earns you more. Every business that subscribes through your referral earns you a monthly commission forever, as long as they are a member.
You do not need a following to start. You just need a link and one conversation. And if you do have a following, the math gets very interesting very fast.
Unlike most affiliate programs, you earn on the click and not just the sale. Every unique real person who clicks your referral link earns you 10 points ($0.01), even if they never sign up. Your first validated share on each of 7 platforms earns an additional 500 point bonus. Share a Smart Offer deal link and earn extra on top of that. Drive 100 or more unique visitors in a 24-hour window and earn a traffic milestone bonus. The more you share content people actually want to explore, the faster it compounds.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there any cost to join?
None. Creating an account is free and your referral link and digital business card are active the moment you sign up.
Do I need to be approved to start earning?
Consumer rewards start immediately with no approval. That includes sharing listings, daily logins, and friend referrals. Business referral commissions are available to all registered users. Just share your link and earn when a business subscribes.
What counts as staying active to keep commissions?
Log in at least once a month and engage with the platform. Share a listing, use a Smart Offer, or click your referral link. That is it.
Can I refer businesses I am not personally connected to?
Yes. Your link works on any page. If someone finds a business through your link and subscribes within 90 days, you earn the commission.
How do I cash out?
Once you accumulate 25,000 points ($25), you can request a payout from your dashboard. Or apply points toward Smart Offer discounts and AI tool credits at any time.
What if the business upgrades their plan after I referred them?
Your commission is based on whatever tier they are currently on. If they upgrade, your monthly earnings go up automatically.
How does the validated social sharing bonus work?
When you click a share button, we generate a tracked link with your referral code and a platform tag. When someone from that post clicks through and arrives on the site as a verified human visitor, the click-back is logged to your account. The first time that happens from a new platform, you earn the 500 point validated share bonus automatically. Nothing to submit.
Which platforms can I earn the validated share bonus on?
Facebook, Instagram, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, Reddit, Snapchat, and TikTok. Each platform pays the 500 point bonus once per lifetime per account, giving you up to 3,500 points in total first-share bonuses.
Do I earn extra for sharing Smart Offer deals?
Yes. Sharing a Smart Offer deal link earns 25 points per share, up to 3 unique deals per day. Your first validated share of any deal on a given platform earns an additional 500 point bonus. Encourage your audience to browse the deals section and check out what Temecula Valley businesses are offering.
What are the traffic milestone bonuses?
If your shared links drive 100 or more unique verified human visitors to the site within a 24-hour window, you earn a 500 point bonus on top of your per-click earnings. At 250 unique visitors you earn 1,500 bonus points. At 500 unique visitors you earn 3,500 bonus points. Milestone bonuses stack within the same 24-hour period.
Do I earn points on every click my link gets?
Yes. Every unique verified human person who clicks your referral link earns you 10 points, once per person per 24-hour period. Our system filters bots and low-quality traffic to keep the program fair and the points meaningful.

Program Details and Terms
Rewards are earned as points (1,000 pts = $1.00). Points can be redeemed for cash at a minimum of $25, or applied toward Smart Offer purchases and AI tool credits on the platform at any time. Affiliate commissions are subject to a 30-day hold for refund protection. To continue receiving recurring affiliate commissions, members must remain active with a minimum of one login and platform engagement per calendar month. Referral click attribution is limited to one unique click per person per 24-hour period. Points are only awarded for verified human clicks. Our system actively filters bots, automated traffic, and visits originating from the same network as the account holder. Clicks from the same IP address or device as the referring account do not count toward point totals or milestone bonuses. Traffic milestone bonuses require 100, 250, or 500 unique verified human visitors arriving through a member's referral link within a single 24-hour period and are awarded once per qualifying window. Validated first-share bonuses are awarded once per platform per lifetime per account across seven supported platforms.
