Crier: Local Offers & Events

Know what's on at the places you already go to. The pub down the road has a quiz tonight. Your regular cafe has a new menu. The barber has a slow-Tuesday offer. None of it reaches you, because the only way they can tell you is to pay a social network for the privilege — and even then it lands somewhere between an advert and a stranger's holiday photos. Crier is different. You follow the places you actually visit. When they have something on, your phone tells you. That's the whole idea, and everything in the app exists to keep it that way. There's no algorithm deciding what you deserve to see, no promoted posts from businesses you've never been to, and no feed engineered to keep you scrolling. You hear from the places you chose, and nothing else gets through. We have no reason to hold your attention any longer than it takes to tell you something useful. How it works Scan the Crier poster on the bar or the counter, or search for somewhere near you, and tap Follow. That's you set up. When that place posts an offer or an event, you get a notification. Walk in, show your screen, done — no voucher to print, no code to screenshot, no app-within-an-app to find first. What you'll find on it Offers worth walking for: a free starter, money off a round, an early-week discount at a place that's quiet on Tuesdays. Events that are actually near you: quiz nights, live music, tastings, supper clubs. Add one to your calendar in a tap. Loyalty cards that live in your phone instead of your wallet, so there's nothing to lose and nothing to remember. One Crier ID collects stamps everywhere that runs a loyalty. And a way to find places worth following in the first place — browse what's around you or search a town, with opening hours, address and Google rating so you know before you set off. Free, and staying that way Crier is free for customers, permanently. Venues pay for the tools they use to run their promotions, and that's the only reason this exists. We don't sell your data or attention, because we're not in that business. If you run a place Crier is for pubs, cafes, restaurants, bars, salons, barbers, shops and studios who'd rather their regulars heard from them directly. Post an offer or an event once and it reaches the people who already chose to follow you — no reach to buy back, no ads to bid on, no guessing whether it landed. Venue accounts are set up by invitation while we're early. If that sounds like your place, email [email protected] or have a look at https://crier.uk/#venues Where we are so far We're starting in Bracknell and the surrounding area, adding venues town by town rather than claiming to cover the country. If your local isn't on here yet, mention us to them — the quickest way a place joins Crier is an owner who gets invited. Privacy: https://crier.uk/privacy
