Here’s how it works.

Free for clubs; venues only pay for completed club events.

01

We get to know both sides.

Established clubs and neighborhood spots, one neighborhood at a time.

For clubs

Tell us your size, area, days and times, and vibe.

For venues

Tell us your space, the days and times you could use most and any minimum spend.

02

We see who fits.

We pair groups and venues by area, size, time, vibe and spend.

For clubs

Only spots that want a group like yours.

For venues

Only established clubs that suit your room, checked before we suggest them.

03

Both say yes.

Each side sees the plan first. Nothing is booked until both say yes.

For clubs

The day and time, the headcount, any food and drink minimum.

For venues

The group, the headcount, the time. You OK every group.

04

The meetup itself.

The club meets and the room fills up. We send reminders, confirm the headcount, then ask both sides how it went.

For clubs

Just show up. The organizer gets a break from admin.

For venues

Guests order and pay through your own till.

05

Next time, your call.

Same spot again, or somewhere new. We handle bookings and changes either way.

For clubs

New spot every time, or the one you loved.

For venues

We keep the book and keep finding new groups.

For clubs

Find your club a great place to meet.

Free for clubs. No membership fee.

Questions

Does it cost anything?

Clubs never pay. For venues: No fee to join the pilot, and your first completed matched event has no Coop fee. After that, a small percentage for completed club events, agreed together in advance.

Do we have to go back to the same place?

No. Somewhere new every time, or the spot you loved. Your call, and we handle the booking either way.

Is anything booked automatically?

No. Each side sees the plan first: the day and time, the headcount, any minimum spend. Nothing is booked until both say yes.

Who pays for food and drinks?

Guests order and pay at the venue as usual, through the venue’s own till. Some venues may ask for a food and drink minimum, agreed upfront.

Which clubs are you looking for?

We’re starting with established groups that have an organizer, a history of meetups and fairly predictable attendance.
