I run a...
When someone moves to a new city or is just visiting, one of the first things they google is "game store near me" or "MTG store" plus the city name. Right now they get Google Maps with zero context. They can't tell if you run events, sell singles, or have tables in the back. On Boardoro all of that is on your page. We also link your Discord or WhatsApp group so people can join your community before they even walk in.
How it works
We find you, or you tell us
We're building the directory city by city, so there's a decent chance we already have a draft for your place. If not, just submit it. Couple minutes, that's it.
We verify everything
Before anything goes live we check your website, socials, and opening hours. We don't publish guesswork.
Claim your listing
Once you're on Boardoro you can claim your page and take control. Update your info, post events, respond to reviews. It's yours.
Why you should claim your listing
Your place might already be on Boardoro. Once you claim it, you can manage everything yourself. Here's what that gives you:
Update your own info
Opening hours changed? New address? Fix it yourself, don't wait for us.
Respond to reviews
Someone leaves a review, you can reply. Say thanks, or clear something up.
Post events
Game nights, tournaments, meetups, whatever you're running. Shows up right on your listing.
Add photos
Show people what your place looks like. The play area, the shelves, the vibe.
See who's finding you
How many people viewed your listing, clicked your website, or looked up directions to your store.
Pin announcements
Holiday hours, a big sale, new product line. Pin it to the top of your page.
Need more customers? Promote a deal
Maybe it's a slow month. Maybe you just got a big shipment of sealed product and want to move it. Or you're doing a discount weekend to bring in some new faces.
You can post deals on Boardoro. They show up on your listing and in our deals section, where players go specifically to find offers near them. Someone in Berlin looking for a good price on a booster box? They'll see yours.
This is a paid feature. It's also how we fund the platform. More on that below.
Need a website? We build those too
A lot of game stores don't have a good website. Some have one from 2014 that hasn't been touched since. Others have nothing at all. And honestly, that makes sense. You're busy running a store, ordering product, planning events. Building a website is not where your afternoon should go.
We build websites, webshops, and event pages for game stores and cafés. We know the hobby, we know what players expect from a store's website, and we handle all the technical stuff so you don't have to.
This is completely separate from your Boardoro listing. It's just something we offer because we kept hearing from store owners that they needed it.
Okay but how do you make money
People always ask, so here it is:
Your listing is free. Every store, café, venue, and community gets the same listing with the same features. We want the directory to be complete, and that only works if there's no barrier to being on it. This won't change.
Deals are paid. When you want to promote a sale or special offer to players in your area, that costs money. Think of it as local advertising that actually reaches the right people.
Technical services are paid. If you want us to build you a website or webshop, that's a separate thing. Totally optional.
Get listed
Takes a couple minutes. We check everything and usually get back to you within a few days.
