How it actually works
You arrange the whole booking with our team, exactly as you would for yourself: the city, the date, the timing, the occasion, and the kind of company that suits her. You pay for it. Then you tell her when and where to be.
That is the entire mechanic. There is no voucher, no code, no account for her to create and nothing for her to redeem. The booking exists from the moment you confirm it, attached to a date you chose.
Which means you pick the date
This is the part that surprises people, so it is worth saying plainly: because the booking is a real slot in a real diary, someone has to choose when it happens, and that someone is you. She cannot decide later.
So the gift is only as good as your guess about her calendar. Pick a date you already know is free — the Saturday of her birthday weekend, the evening of the gala she has already mentioned twice, the day after her move. If you are not sure, ask her something that sounds like ordinary curiosity a few weeks beforehand, or skip the surprise and plan it with her. A booking she cannot use is a poor present, and moving it has a deadline of its own.
The money, before you commit
You pay the 30% advance when you choose a companion, and the terms are yours rather than hers, because you are the one who booked. The advance is refunded in full if nobody is introduced, or if he cancels or does not come. Once you are introduced it is not refunded if you cancel or change the plan; the date can move only if he agrees, and the advance stays on the booking.
Practically, that means telling her early enough to matter. If you hand her the date the night before and it turns out she is away, there is nothing anyone can do about it.
What to tell her, and when
- The date, the start time, and roughly how long the booking runs
- Where she is meeting him — a public place, chosen in advance
- That it is strictly platonic company, agreed in advance and nothing more
- That she sets the boundaries on the day and can end it whenever she likes
- Our team's contact, so she can ask us anything without going through you
When it is a good present — and when it isn't
It lands well when she has already said, out loud, that she does not want to go to something alone, or when she has been isolated and would enjoy an unhurried afternoon of being listened to. It is a practical kindness, and it reads as one.
It lands badly as a hint. A booking given to someone who has not asked for company, as a comment on her single status or her social life, is a gift about you rather than about her. If you would hesitate to tell her why you booked it, that is the answer.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a gift voucher or a code?
No. There is nothing to redeem. You arrange the booking with our team, pay for it, and tell her when and where — that is the whole mechanic, and we would rather say so than imply a system that does not exist.
Can she choose her own date?
Not after the fact — the date is fixed when you choose the companion, so you choose it. If her calendar is uncertain, plan it with her rather than surprising her: once you are introduced the date can move only if he agrees.
Can she pick the boyfriend herself?
You choose when you book. If you would rather she did, tell our team before you confirm and we can talk her through the options privately instead — it is her afternoon, and there is no rule that says the surprise has to include the person.
What if she doesn't want it?
Then she doesn't have to go, and nobody will chase her. If you find out before you are introduced, the advance comes back in full; once you are introduced, it does not. That is a reason to ask her first if you have any doubt at all.
Is this a date I am setting her up on?
No. It is strictly platonic, non-romantic company for an agreed day, with boundaries settled in writing beforehand. Nobody is being introduced to a potential partner, and it should not be presented to her as though they were.
Will he know it was a gift?
Only if you want him to. Tell our team how you would like it framed and we will brief him accordingly — including, if you prefer, that she simply booked it herself.
