GREATFOODPLACES & PATTAYA1
What is GreatFoodPlaces?

What is Pattaya1?
Pattaya1 is a local discovery platform that can support Pattaya at launch and may later evolve into a broader local discovery model.
Can Pattaya1 be hidden from the site?
Yes. Pattaya1 should be toggleable in WordPress so it can be shown or hidden without breaking the structure.
Should Pattaya1 duplicate restaurant data?
No. Pattaya1 should use GreatFoodPlaces for restaurant data where possible, keeping one cleaner source of truth.
PUBLEAGUES
What is PubLeagues?
PubLeagues supports pool, darts and community league discovery.
Is the league system part of the Shozzle brochure site?
No. The operational league engine should sit separately. The Shozzle site explains the brand and links to the league system when ready.
Why do leagues matter for venues?
Leagues create repeat visits, community loyalty and more predictable quiet-night footfall.
PREMIUM ADD-ONS
What may become premium?
Premium may include advanced listing visibility, deeper reporting, automation, campaign tools, premium templates, multi-location controls, advanced POS functions and priority support.
Is premium required?
No. Premium is optional and should be used when the extra tools create value for the business.
Will pricing be the same for every venue?
Not necessarily. Pricing may vary by venue type, feature set, location, campaign requirement and support level.

Yes. Advertisers can enquire about screen advertising, sports-led campaigns, food contexts, local campaigns and venue partnerships.
