Question 1

What is Lifely?

Accepted Answer

Lifely is a membership that gives you access to Montreal's best hand-picked restaurants at member pricing. You browse curated places, pick a spot, and show your QR code or PIN to your server before ordering. No tickets to claim, no daily limits — just show up and enjoy your member rate.

Question 2

How is Lifely different from a coupon or deal app?

Accepted Answer

We're not a discount platform. Every restaurant on Lifely is hand-selected by our team for quality — we visit and vet every place before it goes live. You won't find mass-market chains or deep-discount spots here. Think of it as a membership to the restaurants you actually want to go to.

Question 3

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

We offer monthly and yearly plans. Check the pricing page for current rates. Most members save the cost of their membership on their first visit.

Question 4

Is there a free trial?

Accepted Answer

Yes — new users get free experiences when they sign up, no credit card required. It's the easiest way to see what Lifely is like before committing to a plan.

Question 5

Can I cancel?

Accepted Answer

Yes, anytime from the app. Your access stays active until the end of your billing period. No cancellation fees, no questions asked.

Question 6

Can I share my membership?

Accepted Answer

Memberships are personal, but you can invite friends through our referral program. When a friend signs up and completes their first experience, you both earn bonus rewards. You can also send guest passes so friends can try specific offers without a membership.

Question 7

What kind of restaurants are on Lifely?

Accepted Answer

We work with a range of quality restaurants — from upscale bistros and fine dining to the best casual spots in town. The common thread is quality. Every restaurant is selected for the experience it offers, not just the discount it can give. You'll find Italian, Japanese, French, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and dozens of other cuisines.

Question 8

How do you choose the restaurants?

Accepted Answer

Our team visits and evaluates every restaurant before it goes live on Lifely. We look at food quality, atmosphere, service, and overall experience. We'd rather have fewer great places than a long list of mediocre ones.

Question 9

Do you add new restaurants?

Accepted Answer

Every week. You get notified in the app when a new restaurant is available near you.

Question 10

What areas does Lifely cover?

Accepted Answer

We're currently live across the Greater Montreal area — including Laval, Longueuil, the West Island, South Shore, and more. We're expanding to other Quebec cities soon.

Question 11

How do I use my membership at a restaurant?

Accepted Answer

Open the app, pick a restaurant, and check what member pricing is available. When you get to the restaurant, show your QR code or PIN to your server before you order. They'll apply your member pricing right away. Some places also let you book ahead directly in the app.

Question 12

Can I filter restaurants by mood or occasion?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can filter by mood (romantic, friends, family, solo, business, celebration), cuisine type, price range (budget to fine dining), time of day, neighborhood, and more. You can also see what's open right now.

Question 13

Do I need to reserve?

Accepted Answer

Depends on the place. Each listing clearly shows whether a reservation is needed or if you can walk in. For places that require booking, you can do it directly through the app.

Question 14

What platforms is the app on?

Accepted Answer

iOS and Android.

Question 15

What is a guest pass?

Accepted Answer

A guest pass lets you share a specific restaurant offer with a friend who isn't a Lifely member. They can redeem it without a subscription — it's a great way to introduce someone to Lifely.

Question 16

What payment methods do you accept?

Accepted Answer

All major credit cards, processed securely through Stripe.

Question 17

When am I charged?

Accepted Answer

At the start of each billing period — monthly or yearly, depending on your plan.

Question 18

How much can I actually save?

Accepted Answer

It depends on how often you go out, but most members save the cost of their membership on their very first visit. The more you use it, the more you save.
