FAQ

Is the FREE Basic account really free?
Yes! It's really free! You don't need to enter a credit card or anything.

Ah, but I bet the FREE Basic account expires, right?!
Nope. It's free for as long as you want it.

What can I do with my FREE Basic account?
Your MenuMinder FREE Basic account gets you listed on Yumbly.com with your restaurant info, logo, a sample photo, your menus and any events that you have coming up.

What's so great about Yumbly? Aren't there already a bunch of restaurant search sites?
Yes, there are, but nothing is like Yumbly! First, Yumbly lets people search by craving, to find exactly what they're in the mood to eat. Whether it's something simple like 'meatloaf' or something more specific like 'chicken ravioli', Yumbly makes it easy for savvy diners to find you, and shows them your whole menu, plus much more. And unlike most sites that only show a small listing for your restaurant, Yumbly gives you a whole mini-site, showing your information, logo, a photo, menus, events and giving people an easy way to contact you. And that's just with the FREE Basic account!

Hey, that's really cool! What else does Yumbly do?
Yumbly makes it easy for people to save favorite restaurants, give them ratings, and write reviews. Of course there's no cost for people to register, because we want as many people as possible to find you using Yumbly! We've even got features to make it super-easy for hotel concierges and other hospitality professionals to quickly give people a look at their Recommended Restaurants lists.

I've seen some restaurants on Yumbly with more info, or with their logo appearing in search results. How do I get that for my restaurant?
You can upgrade to one of our premium accounts, which offer more features and additional exposure on Yumbly.com. See the MenuMinder Features page for more info on what's included in each subscription level.

How much do the premium account subscriptions cost?
The Enhanced account is just $120 per year, and the Ultimate account is only $300 per year. You can see what each account includes on the MenuMinder Features page.

Do I have to buy special software to use MenuMinder?
Nope. MenuMinder is 100% web-based. To use it, just log in with your e-mail address and password, update whatever you want to update and click save. It's easy!

How long does it take from when I update my menu until it shows up online?
As soon as you click save, your updated menu shows up online. This holds true whether you're talking about your pages on Yumbly.com or on your restaurant's website, if you're using MenuMinder to power your own site. What's great about this is that you can update seasonal, monthly, weekly or daily specials and people will be able to find you in searches on Yumbly.com immediately.

You mean MenuMinder can handle the menus, events, photo galleries, bios and all the other important stuff on my restaurant's website?
Exactly! For just $20 a year extra, any premium account can also be used to power your restaurant's website. Make changes once, and they're reflected instantly on your restaurant's site and on Yumbly.com, so diners can find you easily! Even the FREE Basic account can be used to power your restaurant's website for just $50 a year using a pre-made design, or $75 per year using your own design.

Are there any other costs to using our MenuMinder account to power our website?
Yes, there's a one-time fee of $250 to integrate MenuMinder with your website's design. And, again, MenuMinder can be integrated with any standard HTML-based design. Full-Flash site designs are not supported.

What if we want to use MenuMinder to power our website, but we don't have a web address or a design for our site yet? Can you help?
Yes! We've been designing and building restaurant websites for 15 years, and have worked with some of the most well-known restaurateurs and chefs in the Chicago area. We'd be happy to discuss designing a site that's perfect for you and your restaurant.
