FAQs

☕ Getting Started

Meetlyr is a social app that helps you meet new people in real life — over coffee, drinks, or shared experiences. No swiping, no pressure, just genuine conversations with locals and newcomers in your city.

Simply create a profile with your email or social login, answer a few questions about your personality, interests and preferences, and you're ready to get matched! The entire process takes less than 4 minutes.

No. Meetlyr is about human connection, not dating. Many people use it to make new friends, expand their social circle, or explore their city through real conversations.

We’re currently live in Budapest, Prague, and Bratislava, with more cities coming soon. Join the waitlist to help bring Meetlyr to your area next!

  1. Sign up and tell us a bit about you.

  2. Choose your meetup type (coffee, wine, walk, etc.).

  3. Get matched with 1–3 people nearby.

  4. Meet in a suggested venue and enjoy the conversation.

Meetlyr welcomes people of all ages. Our users range from 21 to 65+, with the majority between 25-40. You can set age preferences in your profile to be matched with people in similar life stages according to your preference. 

👥 Matching & Meetups

Our algorithm pairs you based on interests, location, language, and social preferences. We balance similarity with diversity to spark interesting conversations.

You can set basic preferences (e.g., age range, language, vibe). We handle the rest to ensure safe, comfortable, and varied connections.

Most meetups are 2–5 people — small enough to feel personal, big enough to avoid pressure.

We partner with local cafés, and social spaces that fit Meetlyr’s vibe — safe, public, and welcoming.

Perfect! Meetlyr is built for exactly that. The whole idea is to make meeting people easy and pressure-free. You can start with smaller coffee meetups to ease in.

Research shows that 3-4 is the ideal group size for forming friendships. It's intimate enough for everyone to participate, diverse enough to keep conversations interesting, and removes the pressure of 1-on-1 interactions while avoiding the overwhelm of large groups.

Most users get their first match within 24 hours of completing their profile. The exact timing depends on availability in your city and how many people share similar interests and schedules. We make sure that there are always matches available for you to interact and form connections with. 

Yes! Before the meet-up, you'll see your group members' first names, photo and shared interests. This helps everyone feel comfortable before meeting in person.

Our app provides a series of ice-breakers and topics tailored to your shared interests. They can help you get to actually know others without any pressures!

Most meetups last 30 minutes to 2 hours, but there's no strict time limit. Some groups grab a quick coffee, while others end up chatting for hours. You control your own schedule and you can leave whenever you wish.

You can choose tea, smoothies, cocktails, juice, or any beverage you prefer. We even have members who meet for hot chocolate or kombucha! The onus is to have a conversation so we choose a place where people of all preferences can have a drink and enjoy. 

Life happens! You can always cancel or reschedule 24 hours before the meetup. Repeated no-shows affect your matching, so only confirm meetups you can genuinely attend. 

Meetups are designed for matched members only to maintain group balance. If you bring an outsider to the group, others will feel unwelcomed and you will be automatically banned from future events. 

🔐 Safety & Privacy

Yes. All users verify their accounts and agree to our community guidelines. Meetups only happen in public venues, and you can report or block users anytime.

All users must verify their email and phone number. We also use photo  and ID verification to confirm identity.  We use state of the art KYC protocols to ensure that the users do not have any criminal background. Suspicious profiles are flagged for review, and fake accounts are removed immediately. We also recommend you to give us a feedback after every event to ensure that our community stays safe and thriving!

No. Meetlyr fully complies with GDPR. Your data is never sold or shared. You control what’s visible to other users.

Absolutely. You can report any user, and they won't be able to contact you or be matched with you again. Our reporting system allows you to flag inappropriate behaviour, and our team investigates all reports within 24 hours.

💸 Pricing & Plans

Yes! You can join and enjoy one free meetup per month with the free plan. After that, you can either choose to a one off ticket or subscribe to a plan of your choice to make lifelong connections!

Absolutely. No contracts, no hidden fees. You can pause or cancel your plan at any time from your profile.

No — your coffee or meal isn’t included in the app fee. You simply pay at the café as usual.

 With the subscription, you get unlimited matches, priority matching (faster connections), access to exclusive events, advanced filters (age, interests, distance), early access to new features, and the ability to create private group chats. 

🌍 Community & Experience

Students, young professionals, expats, creatives — anyone craving real conversation.

Yes! You can use Meetlyr in any active city. It’s a great way to meet locals or fellow travelers.

That's completely okay! Not every match results in lasting friendships, and that's normal. You can request a new match and try again. There's no obligation to stay in touch with any group. We recommend you to give a feedback after ever meetup so that we can ensure that you have a better experience on next occasion. 

Be curious, be kind, and show up. Real conversations happen when you’re open — that’s the whole spirit of Meetlyr.

Perfect! You can connect with individual members or the whole group through in-app chat. Moreover, you can choose in the app to go out with the group again if you would like. 

Yes! If there's mutual interest, you can arrange future meetups through chat feature in the app. Many Meetlyr users meet regularly—weekly coffee dates or seasonal activities.

Simply go to your dashboard and book a new event. You can be part of multiple groups simultaneously and attend as many meetups as you like with the subscription plan.
