01 - What is Dianping

China's #1 lifestyle platform,
at your doorstep

Dianping (大众点评) is the app Chinese consumers trust for restaurant reviews, food reviews and lifestyle spending - abroad too. Meituan is Dianping's parent company, and verified merchants get listed on Meituan for free: one setup, two platforms. For Singapore merchants, it's the direct line to Chinese visitors and the local Chinese-speaking community alike.

09 - FAQ

Questions we hear
all the time

What is Dianping - and how is it related to Meituan?

Dianping (大众点评) is China's largest lifestyle review platform - the app Chinese consumers use for restaurant reviews, food reviews, beauty and leisure decisions, at home and abroad. Meituan is Dianping's parent company; verified merchants are cross-listed on Meituan for free - one setup, two platforms.

Do I need to speak Mandarin to work with you?

No. We handle 100% of the Chinese-platform side - listing, translation, campaigns, review replies. You work with us in English.

How fast can my listing go live?

Typically 2–4 weeks after we receive your complete materials (photos, menu or service list, business documents).

What's the minimum commitment?

The minimum engagement for the Dianping service is 1 year - signing starts a one-year service cycle. The verified merchant account (商户通) itself is an annual product.

Is this only for tourist-facing businesses?

No. Dianping and Meituan are also widely used by Singapore's local Chinese-speaking community and by the Chinese expatriate population - for many F&B operators, local diners match or exceed visitor volume.

How do Chinese customers pay?

The Dianping/Meituan ecosystem supports Alipay and WeChat Pay, and deal redemptions are settled by the platform - you don't need to handle RMB payments yourself.

How is pricing structured?

Annual packages (Merchant Verified Listing / Full Package). After the free consultation we'll send a full proposal and quote tailored to your store.
