NEW YORK, Aug. 8, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FoodFan Inc. - the social destination for discovering and sharing restaurants - launched Select, the first exclusive membership program that lets diners save significantly at their favorite restaurants – whenever they dine out.
Select enables its members to save up to 30% off the entire bill, any time they dine at participating restaurants. Currently, Select is accessible at more than 70 of New York City's best restaurants, and is expanding its catalogue every week. The first program to evade blackout times, Select also lets its members frequent participating restaurants without reservations.
"The model is simple: Restaurants want to attract customers, encourage these customers to spend more and ensure they come back," says Carlo Cisco, CEO and founder of FoodFan. "We are thrilled to arm our favorite restaurants with a program that lets them access premium customer engagement, free of charge. What's more, we are offering diners a convenient and discreet solution to the headache of vouchers, deal stipulations, expiration dates and more."
Select membership is only $7.99 a month, an amount that is easily recouped in a single meal.
How it works:
1. Become a member at FoodFanSelect.com use the invitation code "PressRelease" to receive immediate access and your first month free. The first 100 people to use the code will receive the first 3 months free.
2. Look through the catalogue of over 70 restaurants, and then go to whichever you like.
3. Redeem your discount by sliding the card into your bill with your payment, and your waiter or waitress will take care of the rest!
4. Repeat. Use Select as often as you'd like at no additional cost.
"You feel like James Bond" said a Select beta member, "I've saved hundreds of dollars this month."
