Common Questions
How do I delete my account?
Contact support. We'll archive your data per Indian data retention laws and suspend your account. This cannot be undone.
How do I change my restaurant's city?
Contact support. City changes affect local search visibility and may require re-approval.
Can I have multiple restaurants?
Yes. Each restaurant is a separate profile under your account. From your dashboard, you can switch between them.
How do I add a manager?
Currently, you can only have one owner account per restaurant. Manager accounts (additional logins) are coming soon. For now, share your login with trusted staff or contact support for special access.
How do I get featured?
Email sales@mycitydeal.com for the Featured Listing paid add-on. It's affordable and great for new restaurants trying to stand out.
What if I disagree with a commission charge?
Use the "Dispute" button on the Pending Dues page. Our team reviews within 48 hours.
