Store Sign Up Guide

Get the most out of the Game Haven Guild ecosystem!

Step 1: Create Your Personal Game Have Guild Account

Start by creating a free personal Game Haven Guild account in the app or on the website. This account is tied to you as the store owner or manager and will be included in the information we will use to verify store ownership and manage permissions later.

  • Available on the Google Play Store, Apple App Store or at www.GameHavenGuild.app.

  • One person = one account. Other staff members can create their own person accounts, and you will be able to add those accounts as employees once your store is verified.

  • Fast track your store verification by using an email address with the same website as your publicly listed website (example: @gamehavenguild.com if your website is www.gamehavenguild.com

    • No problem if your email isn’t the same as your website, but verification may take longer.

Step 2: Claim Your Store

Once logged in, press the My Store button on the menu page and submit the form to claim your store.

  • Owner/Manager Information is not public but will be used as part of the verification process

  • Verification can take up a few business days depending on if the information provided meets verification criteria or if a call is required to finalize verification.

Step 3: Set Up Your Store For Success

Finish setting up your store in the Advanced Setting page, from your Store Dashboard:

  1. Set up your linkpage and custom URL to use as a landing page specific to your store.

  2. Add employees and determine what visibility you want them to have.

  3. Enable and configure your reservation settings

  4. Add your Store Calender and Reservation and Table Availability to any website with an iframe integration.

Integration into your stores standard processes in crucial for you to get the benefits of the Game Haven Guild tools.

  • During the account set up verification process, your store is assigned a unique QR code. Print copies and display near your point-of-sales and gaming areas for easy customer access.

    • Your QR code is located on your store dashboard.

  • When customers are checking out, ask if they have ‘Checked-In’ yet to drive adoption.

    • When a customer completes a check-in, they auto follow your store making sure your announcements show for them on their home page.

      • The more people who complete a check-in at your store = the more people following your store.

      • The more consistently people check in, the better data your store has on visitor trends and the games activity they have.

When customers ask what the app is, a simple line for you to answer with is “This is where we post our announcements and schedules, and you get entered into Check In Drawings from Game Haven Guild.”

  • They see your announcements and events in their followed feeds and have it prioritized for creating or joining matchmaking games.

  • They can see the latest industry news on games they enjoy as well as what else is going on in their local gaming community.

  • Game Haven Guild runs national drawing promotions where one check in = one entry.

  • Stores have the ability to run instore giveaways for events.
