How to create unforgettable experiences?

Start with one meal, one gathering, one story and make lifelong relationship.

Step 1: Create a get-together!

Create a get-together and build out an experience for the community! You can create free or paid get-togethers, and also can choose to pre-approve interested members to allow them to register.

Step 2: Add your paypal account

To add a get-together with paid reservations, you will need to connect your paypal account. This will allow us to pay you for any ticket sales!

Step 3: Share to the community!

After you submit, the details for the get-together will be shared on the newsfeed, however you can also share your get-together with specific communities. 

Step 4: Check out members who want to attend!

If you require pre-approval, you’ll get notified on the platform and via email when a member would like to attend your get-together. Check out their profile and choose whether to admit them!

Step 5: Host the get-together!

After members have confirmed and reserved their seats, host your get-together, connect and get to know one another!

Step 6: Earn or Give Back

If your get-together was offered for a fee, we will send you any ticket sales minus our platform fee via paypal after the event has passed. If it was free, thank you for offering your time to members of this community!
