Saigon Scene Premium · for partner venues
We send our members through your door, prove every visit, and make you the first place people see in your part of town.

The PIN
Live at every Saigon Scene partner. Your staff keep a 4-digit PIN behind the bar. That is the whole setup.
They get a live code on their phone that lasts 10 minutes.
A standee on your table or counter tells them what to do, in English and Vietnamese.
The offer is applied and the visit is logged against your venue.
It is the difference between “we think it’s working” and knowing how many members came this month, and how many were there for the first time.
What Premium gives you
Every partner gets a listing, a map pin and the PIN. Premium venues also get the following, and each one is there for a reason.
Premium partners are the venues we highlight in the guides they fit, such as Things to do in Thảo Điền, always marked as partners.
Why Guides are where people decide where to go, and where AI answers send them.
Shown above other partners in your area and category on the partner lists, the happy-hour map, the app and the email.
Why Most people pick from the first three they see.
Olly films your venue and we post it on Saigon Scene. One when you join, then one each quarter.
Why Video shows the room, the food and the crowd better than a menu ever will.
A members-only deal for your first tables, 5pm to 6:30pm, on the nights you choose, with a cap you set.
Why It fills the hour you are already paying staff for, and a busy room pulls in walk-ins.
Your happy hour at the top of our live happy-hour map and pages, with hours we check and mark verified.
Why People open the map with a drink in mind and 20 minutes to decide.
Tell members nearby, and people who saved you, about a new menu, a party or tonight’s offer.
Why It reaches people when they are deciding where to go, not scrolling past.
A card for your counter. Customers tap it with their phone and land straight on your Google review page.
Why More reviews means higher on Google Maps, which is where visitors look first.
A proper article about your venue on saigon-scene.com, marked as a partner feature.
Why Our guides already show up on Google. Your feature rides on that and keeps working for years.
A private page with your visits, new against regular customers, busiest times and where people found you. A report lands on the 1st of each month.
Why You can see what is working, and so can we.
Your event or offer in our email to members and subscribers, and at the top of What’s On.
Why It goes to people who asked to hear where to go.
Every month we hold a Scene Night at a Premium partner. We bring our members, our readers and our crowd, and you host.
Why A room full of new faces who might become regulars.
Our sister agency, Saigon Digital, checks how you show up on Google Maps, Google search, ChatGPT and Gemini, and tells you what to fix.
Why More and more people ask AI where to eat in Thảo Điền.
Your listing and feature in both languages, plus a Premium window sticker and a staff card for your team.
Why Your staff need to know the PIN inside out, and half your customers read Vietnamese first.
