Local independent businesses face a massive digital disadvantage against national chains. The Town Keys is built to fix that. We engineer autonomous, "set-and-forget" digital directories and voucher campaigns that keep small businesses visible without draining their resources.
Our goal is to revitalize local high streets, driving measurable footfall back to independent storefronts while giving locals an instant key to everything their town has to offer.
We bridge the digital gap for local merchants, connecting them directly with residents through a simple, high-performance web portal.
Local businesses register once and instantly become searchable to hundreds of residents nearby, with zero marketing hassle or upkeep.
Exclusive deals and digital discount vouchers are held directly in the user's mobile wallet, encouraging regular local storefront visits.
By routing consumer footfall back to independent merchants, we build thriving, self-sustaining community shopping districts.

Everything you need to know about The Kenilworth Key, whether you're shopping local or showcasing your business.
A digital local pass for Kenilworth. Local businesses publish "keys" - offers, perks and little extras - and you collect the ones you want, right on your phone.
No. The Key opens in your phone's browser. Add it to your home screen and it sits there like an app - no app store, no updates, no storage eaten.
Nothing. The Kenilworth Key is free for everyone who uses it.
New keys drop every day during promotional periods, and weekly the rest of the year. When you see one you like, tap to unlock it - it saves to your Vault, ready to show when you're next in the shop.
Kenilworth's independents - cafes, shops, salons, services and more. The full directory lives inside the Key, and it grows as more businesses come aboard.

Perk of the Week is £125, the Advent calendar is £125, and a place on a town trail is £100. Charity rates are £75, £75 and £50 respectively.
One simple annual price, listed for the year. No commission on your sales and no per-transaction charges - what you sell is yours.
Whatever you want it to be: money off, a free extra, early access, a perk for regulars. You decide the offer, we put it in front of people already out shopping in Kenilworth.
The businesses that back the Key first get the lowest price we will ever offer, locked in while the town finds its feet. Once the 25 founding places are gone, standard pricing applies.
