FAQ
Apéro is free to start, local, and gives you the best happy hour deals around.
Is Apéro free to use?
Yes, to start. The Free plan includes 5 searches per month. Pro is $4.99 per month and removes the monthly cap. Plans are in test mode for now, so no real money moves. See Pricing for what renews and how to cancel.
Can I put Apéro on my phone?
Yes — and there's nothing to download from the App Store.
iPhone (Safari): tap the Share button at the bottom of the screen, scroll down, and tap Add to Home Screen.
Android (Chrome): tap Add when Apéro offers it, or open the ⋮ menu and choose Add to Home Screen.
You'll get the Apéro icon on your home screen, and it opens full screen like any other app. Deals you've already looked at stay readable even with no signal.
How often do deals update?
Listings were last checked in September 2026, against each venue's own site and public happy-hour sources. We're planning to make this an automatic daily recheck once the site is live.
My favorite bar isn't listed — how do I suggest a venue?
Does Apéro take reservations, orders, or payments?
Not for venues. Apéro shows you where the deal is — you go enjoy it. Booking, ordering, and paying for food and drinks all still happen at the bar or restaurant, same as always. The only payment Apéro itself will take is for an Apéro Pro plan, and that is test mode for now.
Are the venue listings I'm seeing right now real, live deals?
Yes and no. The deals shown are real, published happy hour info we've researched — not invented. What's still pending is a confirmed partnership with each venue, which is what the "Sample listing" badge means.
What does Apéro record about me?
We record how visitors use the site and app, to improve it. That means which pages you open, where you came from, and actions like saving a deal. We never record what you type, your password, or payment details, and we do not use an outside analytics service. If your browser sends Do Not Track, we record nothing.
Who's behind Apéro?
Four Tulane students — Emily Novick, Layken Thau, Tatum Lazarus, and Mandi Valdez — building Apéro as a student venture.
