Ristorante Online Affiliate Program
Help great restaurants get discovered
And earn from every restaurant you refer.
Ristorante Online helps restaurants improve their digital visibility, attract more guests and turn their online presence into a real business asset.
We work with restaurants on the things that matter most before a guest walks through the door: their website, Google Business Profile, Tripadvisor presence, online reservations, reviews, SEO, content and ongoing digital presence.
Now we are opening the Ristorante Online Affiliate Program to selected partners who work with restaurants and want to create additional value for their clients — while earning recurring commissions.

We take care of the rest
Our team contacts the restaurant, performs the initial visibility assessment and explains the most suitable solution.
The restaurant becomes a client
If the restaurant signs up for a Ristorante Online package, your referral is registered.
You earn
You receive a commission for the referred customer — including recurring commission where applicable.
You make the introduction. We handle the digital work.

Your referral link

The referral is attributed to you when

- the restaurant gives us your referral code, or
- you introduce the restaurant directly, by email or through the partner portal.
A referral stays valid for 90 days from the first recorded interaction.

- Share approved Ristorante Online content with your network
You do not need to

- Provide technical support
- Close the sale
- Manage the customer after onboarding
Ristorante Online takes care of the entire process after the introduction.
A better way to introduce us
You are not expected to sell
We don't expect affiliates to become salespeople. A simple introduction is enough.
I work with Ristorante Online, a company that helps restaurants improve their Google visibility, website, reviews and online reservations. I thought it could be useful for you. They offer a free visibility check, so you can see where your restaurant currently stands.
Then share your referral link.
That's it.

- Google posts and updates
- SEO articles
- Seasonal menu updates
- Social media support

The objective is simple:
More visibility. More trust. More guests.
