Be Meetups and real-world events

Two parts of BeMatrx point at things happening in the real world: Be Meetups, where members sit down at a table together, and the real-event listings that show what's on in your city this week.

Be Meetups

Be Meetups are organised at the Social Club. You register, the app seats you at a table with other members, and you meet in person.

  1. Open the Social Club in your city and find Be Meetups.
  2. Tap Join. If you'd prefer it, choose the women-only table.
  3. When the tables are set you'll get a notification telling you who's coming.
  4. Turn up, and check in.

You must be 18+

Be Meetups have a higher age limit than the rest of BeMatrx: you must be 18 or over to join one, even though the app itself is 17+.

Checking in at the table

The table host opens Show Table QR; every guest scans it on arrival. You'll need camera access. Checking in earns XP and records that you were there.

Check-in only works during the check-in window, at your own table. If you scan a different table's code the app will tell you.

Withdrawing

You can withdraw from a meetup you've joined — up to a point. Close to the start time the option disappears, so the people at your table aren't left waiting.

When you can't join

  • You're serving a prison sentence in the world
  • You have a recent offence on your record — check-in is restricted for a while
  • The meetup is already closed
  • The women-only table is chosen but your profile isn't eligible for it

What's on in the city

Venues also show This Week, In Real Life — concerts, matches, and theatre happening near you, with an overview, price range, and seating map where available. Tickets are sold by Ticketmaster; tapping through takes you to their site.

BeMatrx doesn't sell these tickets and isn't involved in the event. Listings can change: they may be marked off-sale, postponed, rescheduled, or cancelled.

If you're planning a trip, the app also shows what's on in that city during your dates. See About BeLocal.

Staying safe

Everything in Staying safe on BeLocal applies to meetups too: public places, no live location, trust your instincts, report or block in one tap.
