Frequently asked questions for stores
What is Meeplay for a board game store?
Meeplay is the board game app and social network. For a store it is a storefront inside a community of active players: you create a professional profile with your location, hours and links, organize events and meetups with capacity control, and showcase your news to people already looking for board games near them.
How much does it cost to have a store on Meeplay?
Creating a store profile and starting to organize events is free. We also offer featured visibility and advertising options to reach more players; you can review them in the advertising section.
How do I attract players to my store events?
Publish your meetups and tournaments as Meeplays: they appear on the map and in the feed of players in your area thanks to geolocation. Attendees can sign up, invite friends and leave reviews, which improves your visibility and credibility game after game.
Can I sell or promote my products?
Yes. You can highlight your products in the Meeplay marketplace by linking to your own sales channel, and announce news and promotions to your community through posts from your profile.
