Unclaimed
The description was assembled from map data by nobody who has been inside.
Claimed
It says what you'd say at the door.
For bars, restaurants, shops and museums
Travellers already saved your place. Make sure they're reading the right thing.
Your place is on Vibe of the City because travellers saved it and recommended it to each other — nobody paid for it to be there. Claiming it is free and takes about ten minutes: write the description in your own words, put the right phone number and website on it, and leave it alone.
No card, no commission, no subscription — and nothing to post afterwards.
Just your place. Nothing else to run.
Claiming isn't a cut-down host page, guide page or expert seat, and it doesn't need any of them. There's no page to design, no QR card to print and nothing to hand out. It's the place travellers already see, corrected by the person who knows it best.
Why claim it
Six things that change the moment the place is yours.
In your words, not the map's
Replace the description a data export put together with yours — what you're known for, what to order, when to come.
The number that actually rings
Put your real phone number and website on the place, so a traveller who wants to book reaches you and not an old directory entry.
Survives every data refresh
Your edits are kept apart from the map data and laid on top of it, so the next automatic update can't quietly undo them.
One owner, verified
A place has at most one verified owner. While it's yours, nobody else can change what it says.
Who saves you, without naming anyone
Where the travellers who save and recommend you come from, their age band and what they're into. Never shown under 15 travellers, so no one can be picked out.
Nothing to defend
No star average, no public reviews to answer, no position to fight for. Travellers recommend you to each other, and claiming doesn't tilt that either way.
Before and after you claim
Same traveller, same place, a week apart.
Unclaimed
An old number from a directory. The traveller who wanted a table gives up.
Claimed
Your number and your website, live the moment you save.
Unclaimed
Travellers are saving you and you have no idea who they are.
Claimed
An anonymised read of where they come from and what they're into, once enough of them have.
Three ways to prove it's yours
Email on your own domain is instant. The other two go to a person, because a free email address or a social profile says nothing about who runs a bar.
Email on your own domain
If your website is bodegalaplaza.es and your email ends in @bodegalaplaza.es, we send a six-digit code. Type it and the place is yours.
The phone on the profile
Pick the number already listed for the place. A person on our team checks it by hand before anything changes hands.
Send proof
No email on your own domain, or your site is a builder or social page? Send proof you run the place and a person reads it.
How to claim — about ten minutes, once
Find your place in the app
Search for it, open it, and scroll to the bottom of the place: Is this your place?
Prove it's yours
Sign in and pick one of the three ways above. Email on your own domain finishes on the spot.
Fix what matters, then leave it
Name, description, phone and website. Changes go live when you save — and nothing asks for your attention after that.
Claiming happens in the app
Free on iPhone and Android. Sign in with a code sent to your email — no password.
What claiming doesn't do — yet
The honest version, so nothing surprises you after you've claimed.
- No ranking boost. There's no ranked list of your city to move up, paid or otherwise.
- No photos. Owners can't upload or replace pictures of the place yet.
- In the app you edit the name, description, phone and website. Opening hours, facilities and the map pin aren't self-serve yet — send them through the form below and a person updates them.
- No owner dashboard. The anonymised read of who saves you exists, but for now we go through it with you rather than show it on a screen.
- Your description is shown as you wrote it, in the language you wrote it in.
- Claiming works only for places already on Vibe of the City, and only from the app — not from this website.
Questions owners ask
The ones that come up every time, answered straight.
Is it really free?
Yes. No subscription, no commission, no card. Claiming, correcting and keeping your place cost nothing. If we ever charge businesses for something, it will be a separate thing you choose — never the claim.
Will claiming move us up?
No — and nothing else will either. There's no ranked list to move up. Travellers find you because someone with a similar taste saved or recommended you, and that works the same whether you've claimed the place or not.
Our email is Gmail, or our website is a Wix, Instagram or TripAdvisor page.
Then the instant email route isn't offered, because an address like that proves nothing about who runs the place. Choose the phone on the profile or send proof, and a person on our team checks it.
Someone else already claimed our place.
A place has one verified owner. Request it anyway and tell us why — a person looks at every contested claim, and a claim that shouldn't stand can be revoked, which removes that person's edits.
Do we have to keep posting?
No. There's nothing to post and no streak to keep. Set it once and leave it alone — the place stays right until something about it actually changes.
Do we need a host page, a guide page or an expert seat?
No. Those are for businesses that hand a page to guests or tour groups, and for people who recommend places. Claiming is only about your place and works entirely on its own.
Our place isn't on Vibe of the City.
Then there's nothing to claim yet — places appear because travellers save and recommend them. Tell us about it in the form below and we'll look into it.
Would you rather do it with us?
Tell us the place and how to reach you. We'll go through the claim with you, update the hours, facilities or pin the app can't edit yet, and show you what travellers who save you have in common. We reply within two working days.
