First 200 Mississippi businesses become Founding Merchants

For local business

Keep 89% of your profit. Fund your community.

Good Circles is a local marketplace built for your margins. You pay a 1% fee on profit instead of the 15–30% the big apps take — keeping 89% of your profit — while customers save ~10% and fund a local nonprofit when they buy from you. It's free to join, with no sale meaning no cost.

The problem isn't sales — it's the fees

Delivery apps and national platforms take 15–30% of every order. That's not margin you're giving up; that's payroll and rent. The model is built to extract from local businesses, not support them.

How Good Circles works for you

Keep 89% of your profit

A 1% fee on profit, not 15–30% of the sale.

A built-in tax advantage

The 10% that funds a nonprofit is a tax-deductible charitable contribution, and Good Circles collects and remits sales tax for you as the marketplace facilitator.

Customers choose you

Shoppers save ~10% and fund their cause when they buy local, so they have a reason to pick you over the chain.

The math

On a $10 item you can net about $1.34 more per sale than on a delivery app — roughly $1,600 a year at 100 sales a month. Same product. Different rails. See the worked example on how it works »
