Who is Look Local First?

We're so glad you're here! Look Local First is an initiative that was started and powered by VizyPay, a local business in West Des Moines, IA. VizyPay works with local businesses across the U.S. which is how our story and mission to support small businesses began.

We truly believe the small business community needs an advocate that helps spread the message to consumers to shop small whenever they can. Our goal is to support the makers and cultivate a community of people who believe in and support this same message.

Look Local First is all about moving local-minded consumers and lovers of small business from words to action, in a fun and easy way! By providing tips and tricks to easily include shopping small and supporting local in your everyday routine, to offering promotional merchandise with 100% of funds going back to supporting small biz - we hope to cast this net of love for local businesses as large and wide as we possibly can.

Elevating the voice of small business owners is a mission we can all rally behind. The small businesses we support and are surrounded by are owned by our friends, our neighbors, individuals that have the best interest of our own communities in mind at all times. To those that took the leap of faith to share a piece of their dreams with us - you've got this and we're here for you!
