Citypon

Most Frequently Asked Questions
What is Citypon?
At Citypon we offer you an exclusive deal every day at an incredible price on the best things to do, see, eat or buy in your city. Since each Citypon has a minimum on the number of buyers needed in order for it to be valid, we get discounts you won't find anywhere else!
Does it cost anything to subscribe?
No, subscribing is absolutely free.
I really want to buy today's deal, how do I buy it?
All you need to do is click on the "Buy" button, log in and enter your credit card details when making your purchase, it's that easy!
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept paypal and all major credit cards.
What happens if a deal doesn't reach the minimum number of buyers needed?
If not enough people sign up to buy, the deal is cancelled and no one's card is charged. We want to make sure no one misses out so spread the word about Citypon, remember that the more sings up the more chance there is of reaching that minimum number!
Is my credit card charged as soon as I buy a Citypon?
Only if the required minimum number of buyers has already been reached when you decide to buy. If that minimum has not been reached yet, your credit card will not be charged.
I just bought today's deal, what's next?
If the minimum number of buyers needed is reached, we'll charge your card and send your Citypon to your email. After the deal's been closed, you can print off your Citypon or show it on your mobile gadget at the business to redeem it.
Do I have to use my Citypon the same day I buy it?
No you don't. You can use your Citypon any time from when you receive it in your email inbox until the date it expires (The expiry date varies with each deal, be sure to check this in the "Fine Print" of it.)
I bought a Citypon but I just found out my credit card was declined, did I lose my chance?
On the occasion that there's an issue processing your credit card, (it could be a typo or a number that was incorrectly entered) we give you 5 days to fix the problem so you don't miss out on the deal. You will receive an email the day after your purchase so you can update your credit card number.

Can I buy a Citypon as a gift?

If I don't use the full value of my Citypon in one visit, can I use the rest later?
No, if you don't think you'll use up the full value by yourself in one visit then brighten up a friend's day by inviting them to come along!
Can I get a refund if my Citypon expires before I use it?
Sorry but we have to say no on this one. Make sure to read the expiration date for every Citypon and plan to use it before then, so this doesn't happen to you.
