How Enlave works
One free card for the good places near you. Here is what it does, what it does not do, and who decides.
No app to install. Your card lives on your phone.
Your Enlave card goes in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, or stays in your phone's browser. There's no Enlave app to install and no inbox to clear.
Show the card at the counter. Staff scan its code. It is the same card at every Enlave place.
Remove the card from your wallet any time. Your membership stays, and you can add the card again from My Enlave.
Shops can't message you. Enlave never sends ads.
No shop can send you anything through Enlave. Enlave never sends advertising to your card or to your WhatsApp.
What can reach you:
- A notice on your card when a seat you claimed changes.
- Seat reminders on WhatsApp, only if you turn updates on in your profile.
- Replies when you write to Enlave on WhatsApp.
Places near you
Your card carries up to 10 Enlave places near you. Open Places near me to see what is around you right now.
While that page is on your screen, your browser sends a rounded position so the list follows you. It stops when you leave the page.
If you allow shared locations to update your card, the first position moves your card's places. Enlave keeps it rounded for 12 hours, then forgets it. The rest are not stored.
Turn this off in your profile, or send STOP-LOCATION to Enlave on WhatsApp.
Your phone may suggest your card. Your phone decides.
What it is
Your Enlave card lists a few places near you, up to 10. When you are near one, your iPhone may show the card on your lock screen so it is one tap away. On Android, Google Wallet may send a nearby reminder for the card.
Who decides
Your phone does. Apple and Google decide whether and when to show the card. It may not appear every time, and Enlave cannot make it appear.
What Enlave learns from it
Nothing about it. Your phone does not tell Enlave that you were near a place or that the card was shown. Enlave does not track your location in the background.
If you share a location with Enlave (a WhatsApp pin, or on Places near me) and allow it to update your card, Enlave keeps a rounded point for 12 hours to pick the places on your card. Send STOP-LOCATION to stop.
What it is not
It is not a message from Enlave or from a shop. No shop can send you anything through Enlave. Enlave never sends advertising to your card.
On Android
Google Wallet sends nearby reminders only if you allow Wallet notifications and precise location all the time. Google sets the distance and the text.
How to turn it off
On iPhone: open the card in Wallet, tap the More button (•••), and turn off “Suggest on Lock Screen”. On Android: in Google Wallet, open Settings, then Notifications.
You can also remove the card. Your membership stays, and you can add the card again from My Enlave.
Ask Enlave on WhatsApp
Write to Enlave on WhatsApp in your own words: “Anything on near me tonight?” An AI assistant answers, using Enlave's own tools to look up places, events, your plans and your card.
It never messages you first. Anything it would change for you waits until you confirm it. Requests go through OpenRouter to Anthropic's Claude; the privacy notice says what they see and how long it is kept.
Start a message with SUPPORT to reach a person.
STOP stops all WhatsApp messages from Enlave, except sign-in codes you ask for. Send START to turn them back on.
What Enlave knows
The privacy notice lists everything Enlave keeps, why, and for how long. You can delete your data at any time.
