FAQ
Will I automatically be accepted into the program if I apply?

Not just yet. We will be in touch once we go through your application and determine your eligibility.

Will I automatically become an Ambassador when I am accepted into the program?

You will be required to become a writer/ blogger/ photographer first. You get to work on assignments and go on fun-filled adventures. While we may have featured tours for you to cover, we encourage you to propose topics or share hidden gems that even we may not know about. LokaLocal will assess your work after 3 assignments and may invite you to become our Ambassador.

However, writers/ bloggers/ photographers who have yet to meet the criteria (3 assignments) may be invited to become a LokaLocal Ambassador. This is at the discretion of LokaLocal.

What assignments will I get?

Selected individuals will get to go on our chosen tour(s) to create content and share about it on their own social platforms as well as on the LokaLocal website or blog.

We know that there are stories out there that we haven’t seen, so we encourage you to propose topics or shade hidden gems you have discovered. Talk to us and you may get to work on it as your assignment!

Will my content appear on LokaLocal?

LokaLocal will only publish content that we find unique and helpful to travelers. We may reproduce your content with your permission and proper attribution.

Are the assignments paid?

Ambassadors will be paid per assignment, which will be agreed upon beforehand. Writers/ bloggers / photographers who have not become an ambassador will receive sponsored trips and exposure.

Can I write in a language other than English?

While most of our content are in English, we are open to other languages such as Mandarin and Malay. Please let us know your preference in your application.

I am a writer but do not have a blog. Can I take part?

Yes, if we find that your work is a fit for us, we may publish your submissions on our LokaLocal website and blog, which will be shared to a wide audience across our online platforms.

Will I be removed as an Ambassador?

Ambassadors may be removed from the program at our discretion. We will remove accounts which have been inactive, have contributed illegal/ offensive content or have not been able to meet our requirements.

Can I leave the program?

If you no longer wish to be part of the program, please inform us via hello@lokalocal.com.
