Questions about
Getting started
What is Meshup?
Meshup is a social platform for building communities and making friends through shared interests and real-life experiences. You can discover people, join or create communities, take part in events, and start plans of your own.
Is Meshup a dating app?
No. Meshup is designed for friendship, communities, shared interests, and real-life activities. Romantic or sexual solicitation and unwanted advances are not permitted under our Community Guidelines.
Is Meshup free?
Yes. Meshup is free to join and most functionality is free, including creating a profile, discovering people and activity, joining or creating communities and events, and taking part in conversations. Optional paid features are clearly identified before you choose them.
Where is Meshup available?
Meshup was built in Singapore and is available globally on iPhone, Android, and the web. Public local activity depends on what members have created in each city.
Do I need the mobile app?
No. You can create an account, explore public content, and use supported features on the web. The iPhone and Android apps provide the complete mobile experience, including mobile notifications.
Questions about
Communities, Clubs, and real-life plans
Can I create my own community?
Yes. Meshup is built for people who want to bring others together. You can create a community around an interest, activity, neighbourhood, identity, or recurring reason to meet, then shape its description, visibility, rules, and membership.
What is the difference between a Community and a Club?
Communities are flexible spaces for people to gather around a shared interest or purpose. Clubs are more structured spaces for organized membership, teams, training, fixtures, and ongoing club operations.
What is a Business Page?
A Business Page is a public Meshup presence for a local business, venue, organizer, studio, or other organization. It can share business information, events, offerings, offers, and updates, build a follower community, and be managed by an authorized Page Team.
Is a Business Page a separate user account?
No. The secure owner and every Page Team member continue using their own personal Meshup account. Their authorized Page Team role determines what they can manage, while the Business Page keeps its own public identity, content, followers, events, and analytics.
What is included free with a Business Page?
A complete Business Page, organic discovery, followers, offerings, offers, and up to three Business events per month are free. Optional Business Pro adds unlimited Business events, more detailed analytics, tracked QR campaigns, and a larger Page Team.
What is the difference between an Event, a Pulse, and a Signal?
An Event is a structured meetup with attendance details. A Pulse is a quick, spontaneous plan for soon or right now. A Signal shares a question, observation, recommendation, or discussion with people who care about an Interest or Community.
What are Moments?
Moments are lightweight social updates connected to real-life interests and communities. They help people share what they are doing, seeing, or experiencing without turning Meshup into a follower-focused social feed.
What is Meshup Settle?
Meshup Settle is an optional Pro host tool for shared costs connected to a Pulse or event. It helps participants record expenses, see balances, generate a settlement plan, and confirm payments without Meshup moving the money itself.
How do friendships form on Meshup?
Meshup starts with something people already have in common. Joining a community, attending events, making spontaneous plans, and seeing familiar faces again gives friendship a natural reason and context to grow.
Questions about
Privacy, safety, and accounts
Who can see what I share?
Visibility depends on the feature and audience you choose. Public content can be visible outside Meshup, while community, group, or private content is limited according to its selected audience. Meshup shows the audience when you create or publish content.
Does Meshup show my exact live location?
Meshup does not intentionally display your exact live location to other people. Nearby discovery can use location or a city you select, while places you deliberately publish for an event or plan may be visible to its intended audience.
How does Meshup support safer meetups?
Meshup combines reporting, blocking, visibility controls, community moderation, participation-based Merits, and practical safety guidance. When meeting someone new, choose an appropriate public place, tell someone you trust, and leave if something feels wrong.
Can I delete my account?
Yes. You can request account deletion through the available account controls or contact Meshup Support. Some records may be retained where required for legal, safety, security, fraud-prevention, or accounting reasons.
How can I contact Meshup?
Visit the Support page for help or email support@meshup.social. For immediate danger or an emergency, contact local emergency services first.
Build community. Make friends.
