Smart Search
mminu's smart search understands plain language. Ask "birthday cake near me", "quiet brunch Sunday at 11", or "plumber tomorrow morning" — and it finds real local matches, ranked by relevance and proximity.
- Type or chat naturally in any language — no keywords, no filters to learn
- Results come from real, live merchants nearby — never invented or hallucinated listings
- Ranked by relevance, proximity, availability and your personal history
- Works across every category: food, services, products, events
- Tap any result to view details and continue with the merchant directly
- Daily fair-use limits keep it fast and free for everyone
It finds you before you search.
Match Radar & Notify Me
Tell mminu what you are looking for once and stop searching. When a matching offer appears nearby — even days later — we notify you instantly.
- Tap "Notify Me" on any search, deal page or category to register an active interest
- Match Radar runs in the background and matches your interests against new merchant supply in real time
- You stay anonymous to merchants — they only see anonymised demand signals, never your identity
- Get a single, deduplicated notification per match — no spam, no repeats
- Manage or remove your active interests any time; everything auto-expires after 90 days
Today's moments, gone tomorrow.

- Tap a story in the Stories bar at the top of Explore to watch it
- Stories automatically disappear 24 hours after they are posted
- Post a text, photo or short video story from the Stories bar
- React to a story with ❤️ or 🔥 — the creator earns boost points (❤️ = +0.1 pts, 🔥 = +0.5 pts), just like reactions on posts, VidShop videos and events

- Refunds and disputes follow the standard mminu rules — see Payments & Safety below.
Sell, share or ask — in a tap.
Posting & Selling (for users)
mminu is not just for merchants. As a regular user you can post too — list something you no longer need, ask the community for help, share a moment, or look for something specific nearby. Personal selling posts work like a classified ad: you set the price in your description and arrange the deal directly with the buyer. mminu does not process the payment or handle delivery for user-to-user sales.
- Post types: selling (classified ad), asking, sharing, looking-for, recommendation
- Add photos or a short video — required for selling and sharing posts
- Pick the right category and fill in the structured fields (for example automotive → type → brand → model). That is what makes your listing appear in the matching filters and category results, not just in keyword search
- Selling posts never expire automatically; other post types expire on a schedule to keep the feed fresh
- Posts are moderated automatically before publishing — see Reports & Safety
- There is no in-app checkout, escrow or payout for personal selling posts. You handle payment and hand-off with the buyer directly — see Payments & Safety
- Buyer protection, refunds and disputes apply only to mminu-processed orders (food, products from shops, services, bookings, bundles, deals) — not to user-to-user classified listings
- Coming soon: automatic AI tagging for selling posts, so a "BMW 3 Series 2018" description will also classify itself into the right car filters without you opening the brand/model picker
Cars, filtered the way you'd ask.
Cars & Automotive
A dedicated marketplace for vehicles — cars, motorcycles, scooters, bikes and parts — with proper brand and model filters that go far beyond a simple keyword search. Vehicle listings from individual users are classified ads: the price lives in the listing and the buyer and seller arrange the deal directly.
- Filter by vehicle type, brand and model — not just by free-text search
- Mileage, year, fuel type and transmission shown front and centre
- To appear under a brand or model filter (for example BMW → 3 Series), pick automotive + the subtype + brand + model when you post. A free-text mention of "BMW 3 Series" in the description alone shows up in keyword search but not in the structured car filters
- Listings from both individual sellers and verified dealers
- mminu does not process vehicle payments. Meet in person, verify the vehicle and its papers, and treat any request for a deposit, wire transfer, crypto or off-app payment as a red flag — see Payments & Safety
- Coming soon: AI will read your selling post’s title and description and auto-fill the vehicle type, brand and model so the listing lands in the right filters even if you skip the pickers

Disputes & Refunds
If a paid order or booking is not delivered as promised, you are protected. mminu handles disputes and refunds automatically wherever possible, with clear rules and timelines.
- Open a dispute from the order or booking page within the eligibility window
- Funds stay held by Stripe — they are not released to the merchant while a dispute is open
- Eligible refunds are processed back to your original payment method
- Refunds automatically claw back any loyalty points or cashback that were awarded for the order
- Decisions are based on the evidence both sides provide and the platform rules — read the dispute policy from any order
Earn as you go. Spend across mminu.
Rewards, Cashback & Loyalty
mminu rewards real activity, not empty engagement. Every purchase earns loyalty points and cashback you can spend across the app — for discounts, free items, or boosting your own posts.
- Loyalty points earned automatically on every purchase, food order, booking, and bundle
- Cashback on selected merchants, credited to your wallet after the order is complete
- Redeem points at checkout starting from 200 points — minimum cooldown 30 minutes between redemptions
- Up to 3 redemptions per day, capped at 3,000 points/day to keep the system fair
- Spend points or cashback at the same merchant or convert them into Boost Points to promote your own posts
- Points expire 365 days after they were earned (FIFO) — use them or lose them
- Refunded orders automatically claw back the points and cashback originally awarded
Earn them. Spend them. Grow your post.
Boost Points
Boost Points are mminu's in-app credit for promoting your own posts AND for redeeming real rewards from merchants. 1 Boost Point equals €0.05 of paid distribution. You can earn them every day just by using the app, buy them, or convert other rewards into them.
- Earn Boost Points from logging in, daily streaks, completing challenges and getting reactions on your posts
- Buy Boost Point packs at any time — paid through Stripe with a proper VAT-compliant receipt
- Spend points to put any of your posts in front of more people nearby — see Smart Autopilot for the automated version
- Exchange points for real products and services in the Rewards hub
- Free accounts can spend up to 100 earned points per day. Pro (€4.99/mo) removes the daily cap — perfect for collecting points and grabbing the reward you really want without waiting
- Purchased Boost Points always bypass the daily cap, on any plan

- No pressure — missing a day just resets the streak, nothing is taken away

Only the pings that matter.

mminu pings you only for things that actually matter — order updates, messages, matches you asked for and rewards you earned. Everything else is grouped or muted by default.
- Real-time push for orders, bookings, chats and Match Radar hits
- Repeated notifications from the same source are deduplicated automatically — no spam

Public content, moderated by AI.
Reports & Content Safety
mminu uses fully automated AI moderation on public content — posts, photos, videos and comments — before it is shown to others. Private chats stay private. You can also report anything with one tap.
- Tap the three-dot menu on any post, comment or story to report it
- AI moderation checks public content for spam, scams, hate speech, NSFW content and misleading offers
- Private messages are never scanned by mminu — you can still report a chat or block a user yourself
- Confirmed violations are removed automatically and the author is notified
- Moderation decisions are final and fully automated — there is no human review or appeal queue
- Repeat offenders lose posting privileges and may be banned

Deliver on your schedule. Get paid weekly.
Couriers
When a restaurant does not deliver by itself, it can hand the order off to an independent courier who brings the food to you. Couriers use their own bike, scooter or car, choose their own hours, and keep the bulk of every delivery fee. If you would like to earn on the side, joining as a courier is free and takes only a few minutes.
- As a customer: see your courier on the map, chat in the app, and tip if you want — 100% of the tip goes to the courier
- As a courier: keep 85% of every delivery fee, and 100% of tips
- After 20 deliveries for the same restaurant, you can become their Partner (90%) or Top Partner (95%) — you earn more and get their orders first
- Work when you want — go online whenever it suits you, no shifts, no minimums
- Free to join. No monthly fees. Weekly payouts straight to your bank via Stripe

Cited by ChatGPT. Without ads.
AI search discoverability (GEO)
More and more people now ask AI assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Copilot or Google’s AI answers instead of searching the old way. mminu is built so these AIs can read your business and mention it in their answers — without you paying for ads.
- Your business information is written in a clean, structured way that AI assistants can actually read and understand.
- mminu pages are public and don’t hide behind a login, so AI assistants can reach them when answering people.
- mminu openly welcomes the main AI assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI, Copilot and more) — your content is allowed to be used in their answers, not blocked.
- AIs prefer real, verified information. Your verified address, hours, menu, prices and reviews give them facts to quote — instead of guessing.
- mminu also publishes a plain-text summary of the platform made specifically for AI assistants, so they can quickly understand what mminu is and who is on it.
- Zero setup for you — verify your business once and it becomes findable in AI answers, the same way it becomes findable on Google.
