Waiting for a train, early for a meeting, working from a café? Tap I'm free, see which business people nearby are free too, and meet for a coffee. New contacts, real conversations, no awkward networking event.
Example only: made-up people.
"I'm free for 30, 60 or 90 minutes near Bromley South." Go invisible again with one tap.
Real business people free near you right now, wherever you are. Send a coffee invite and sort out the details with quick replies, no typing.
Meet somewhere public. Once you've both tapped "I'm here", your business cards swap, so you can call or message on your own phones.
Once you're in, you can meet anyone, wherever you are. We open area by area at the start so there's always someone free nearby. Bromley, Chislehurst, Orpington and Beckenham open first, and London areas are taking names now. Not on the list? Add your area when you join.
The app is free for everyone, always. Extras are the optional paid part (£8 a month or £70 a year). Founding members get them free.
An introduction counts when the person you introduce signs up with their work email (not Gmail, Outlook.com and the like) and has their first coffee with another member. Use your own link from the app, so we know it was you.
Prices include VAT. Buying for a VAT-registered business? You can usually reclaim the VAT with your receipt (check with your accountant).
Sign in with your work email and a one-time code. Two badges show who people are:
✔ Verified businessin Verified LinkedIn
Verified business: work email checked with a code. Gmail, Outlook.com and other free email can join, but don't get this badge.
People see "near Bromley South station", never your exact spot. Your area disappears the moment you go invisible.
Coffees happen in cafés, stations and lounges. Block or report anyone in two taps.
After a coffee you privately say "would meet again" or not. Nobody sees it but you and our safety team.
Pick your area and we'll email you when Catch a Cuppa opens there. Your place on the waitlist counts towards the first 200, so the earlier you join, the better.
It's a web app: no app store. When your area opens, open the link in the email and add it to your home screen.
We keep your name, email, area and who introduced you, only to tell you when your area opens and to give you (or them) the founding offer. We don't share it or send marketing. Every email has a link to leave the waitlist, and leaving deletes your details from it.
Catch a Cuppa is a free web app. Nothing to download from an app store: open it once and add it to your home screen.
It then opens full screen, like any other app.
