Common questions
What operators usually ask.
Do I own the city or subdomain?+
No. Operators receive a revocable license to operate a BarMenu market. BarMenu retains the brand, domain, and technology.
Is revenue guaranteed?+
No. The platform supports several potential revenue streams, but outcomes depend on local execution, demand, and responsible sales.
Can more than one person operate a city?+
Potentially. BarMenu reviews each market and may approve a team or multiple contributors. Permanent exclusivity is not promised at launch.
What does it cost?+
Commercial terms are discussed during review so they can fit the operator and market. Public pricing is not part of this MVP.
