Questions
- Does it cost anything?
- No. You only ever receive money.
- What counts as “what they spend”?
- Matcha packs, passes and the monthly plan they buy in their first 12 months, after Apple’s or Google’s cut.
- Can I use my own name as the code?
- Usually, yes. Codes are letters and numbers, 4 to 10 characters.
- What’s a Founding Partner?
- The first 30 partners who join by November 30 are Founding Partners. They get 35% instead of 25% of what their people spend, for their first 12 months.
- Is Buy Me a Matcha a dating app?
- No. It’s for making friends in English, one-on-one over a matcha or coffee. Women can choose to see only women.
