For Restaurant Owners

Win a regular
for €7.50.

An example, not a promise: whether a guest comes back depends on your offer and your food.

Local influencers recommend your restaurant. You pay once there is a result, not for ads or reach.

The €7.50 is not a cut from the first plate. You win a guest with a contact you can invite again and again: €2.50 when they confirm their email, €5.00 when they show up. Every return visit costs nothing.

How it works

From first contact
to regular guest.

Four steps, from the first invitation to a regular guest.

1

Create a Secret Experience

Sign up in the app as a restaurant and create an exclusive experience for new guests.

2

Invite influencers

Invite local influencers. Whoever accepts shares your experience with their personal link.

3

The guest confirms, you pay

Only when someone signs up and confirms their email do you pay €2.50. Never for clicks.

4

Visit via QR scan

Your staff scans the guest’s QR code. You pay €5.00 for the first visit; every return visit is counted and costs nothing.

An experience you can only get through Hiddin.

You create an exclusive experience for new guests in the app. It is only available through Hiddin, for example via an influencer's link.

  • The influencer gets their commission through Hiddin; for you it stays at €2.50 per contact and €5.00 when the guest shows up

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently asked questions

When exactly do I pay?

At most twice per guest: €2.50 when someone signs up and actively confirms their email address (double opt-in), and €5.00 when that same guest comes to you and your staff scans their QR code. Never for clicks, page views or unconfirmed addresses. If nobody signs up, you pay nothing.

Do I also pay if the guest does not come?

Then you only pay the €2.50 for the confirmed contact. The €5.00 is only charged when the guest shows up and their QR code is scanned. If they come after more than 180 days, the visit costs nothing.

Do I have to scan every Hiddin guest?

Yes. Every guest who uses your Hiddin offer is scanned at the visit, as set out in the terms of service. The offer is only given with a scan: that way the guest knows it is valid, and you see who comes back.

What does Hiddin cost overall?

€0 base fee, no subscription for contacts. You pay €2.50 per confirmed contact and €5.00 when the guest shows up, €7.50 per guest in total. The AI newsletter is free for up to 30 different guests, after that there is a subscription. Meta Ads is coming soon, and we will let you know once it is available in the app.

Are the leads really from my region?

Hiddin focuses on local influencers. The score algorithm checks separately for each restaurant how well an influencer fits. What counts most is the share of their Instagram followers living in the restaurant's region (German federal state or Spanish autonomous community, e.g. Islas Baleares). Engagement rate and past results are added to that. A high share of suspicious followers lowers the score.

What if there are only a few influencers in my city so far?

Soon you will also be able to use Meta Ads: local ads on Facebook and Instagram, right from the app.

How do I see whether a guest comes back?

Every guest has a personal QR code. Your staff scans it at every visit. Only the first visit within 180 days of confirmation costs €5.00; every further one is counted in the app and is free. That way you see who is becoming a regular.

How is the influencer paid?

Through Hiddin, the influencer earns a commission for every confirmed contact that comes via their personal link, and a second one when the guest comes to the restaurant. Payouts go by PayPal or by bank transfer (Wise) to their IBAN.

Do I have to pay the influencer on top?

No. For you it stays at €2.50 per confirmed contact and €5.00 per guest who shows up. The influencer gets their commission through Hiddin.

Is my guests' data safe?

Yes. Every guest has actively consented (double opt-in and privacy policy). All data is stored in the EU. Every guest can delete their data with one click. We comply with the GDPR.
