Things people ask us.

LocalMinds brings small groups of people together in real life. We compose tables based on age range, interests, conversation style, language, and overall group balance, then bring people together over coffee in Amman.

No. LocalMinds is not a dating app. We bring small groups of people together for conversation, not one-on-one matching. No swiping, no attraction-based matching, and no pressure for the table to become anything other than a good conversation.

Not at all. Most people come alone. The experience is designed for people who are open to meeting new people in a calm, friendly setting.

People from different backgrounds join LocalMinds: professionals, founders, students, creatives, and people simply looking for better conversations and new social circles.

What they usually have in common is openness, curiosity, and the willingness to meet people in real life.

Yes. The minimum age is 18, and we curate tables for people across different ages and life stages. Age range is one of the factors we use when composing tables, so each group feels balanced and comfortable. One of our favorite facts is that our oldest community member so far is 74 years old.

For now, LocalMinds is mainly active in Amman. We are building from here and plan to expand to more cities over time.

You download the LocalMinds app, choose an available meetup, and confirm your seat. We then compose tables based on age range, interests, conversation style, language, and overall group balance.

Before the meetup, we send you the cafe location and your table details.

We use what people share in the form, supported by our matching process and human judgment, to compose each table with intention.

The goal is not to make everyone identical. It is to create the right mix: enough similarity for comfort, enough difference for conversation, and enough openness for the table to become its own thing.

Most tables have five to eight people. This keeps the conversation small enough to feel personal, but large enough to feel relaxed and natural.

You will not know much about the people at your table in advance. Holding back some information is part of the experience. It helps people arrive more open, less scripted, and more ready to discover the table in person.

No, you cannot choose who sits at your table. LocalMinds composes each table based on the information people share in the form, including age range, interests, conversation style, language, and overall group balance.

We also do not share personal information about other community members before the meetup.

Yes, you can come with a friend, but please let us know in advance. We will do our best to seat you together, depending on the table structure and matching.

Most meetups are in Arabic, English, or a mix of both. We ask about language preference during registration so we can place people more thoughtfully.

We do our best to create balanced tables whenever possible. Since every meetup depends on who registers and confirms, the balance may vary, but we always try to create the best possible table.

A seat is a small flat fee, currently 3 JOD in Amman. Pricing varies by city and meetup as LocalMinds expands, and the current price is always shown in the app.

The seat fee covers organizing, curation, matching, coordination, and the overall LocalMinds experience.

It does not include your cafe order.

The current amount is always shown in the app and can vary by city and meetup.

No. To confirm your seat and help us finalize tables properly, payment must be completed before the meetup through the available payment options.

Once your payment is confirmed, your seat is reserved. Before the meetup, we send you the final details, including the cafe location and table information.

We try to keep our refund policy fair for everyone.

If you cancel at least 24 hours before the meetup, you will receive a full refund. Cancellations less than 24 hours before the meetup are non-refundable because tables are already matched and arranged by then.

No-shows are also non-refundable and cannot be transferred to another meetup.

Please let us know as early as possible.

If you cancel at least 24 hours before the meetup, we can refund you. If it is less than 24 hours before the meetup, the seat is considered confirmed and non-refundable.

Meetups usually happen at well-known cafes around Amman. The exact location is shared after your seat is confirmed and the tables are finalized.

Because we first need to finalize confirmations, matching, and table arrangements. This helps us place people more thoughtfully and coordinate properly with the venue.

A typical LocalMinds meetup lasts around 2 hours. Some people leave earlier, and some stay longer depending on the group and the conversation.

Usually, yes. Since meetups happen at cafes, each person is expected to order something from the venue.

We put a lot of thought into every table, but like any real-life social experience, chemistry can vary.
