How does it actually work?

You pick the group that fits you on this website, click the WhatsApp button, send us a message, and within 48 hours (usually the same day) a real person adds you to the right WhatsApp community. That's it. No apps to download, no login, no fees.

Yes. Joining any Lisbon People Club group is 100 percent free. We do not sell your number, we do not spam the chat, we do not run ads inside the groups.

Can I join more than one group?

Absolutely. If you're a digital nomad who surfs at dawn and chases miradouro sunsets on Fridays, join the Nomads, Surf and Sunset Social groups. Most members are in 2 to 4 groups.

What's the group size? Won't it be spammy?

Each group stays under 250 members with active moderation. Anyone posting promo, crypto, or off-topic links gets removed. The chat is for members, by members.

I'm only in Lisbon for 5 days. Worth joining?

That's exactly why Tourists - First Week exists. You get a welcome dinner, airport-pickup carpools, and a dozen locals telling you the real spots within hours of landing.

I don't have WhatsApp. Another option?

WhatsApp is how Lisbon actually runs - trams, surf lessons, tascas, doctors - everything. If you're in Lisbon it's the one app to install. If you really can't, message us from the contact page and we'll figure something out.

Are these groups safe? Vetted?

Every new member sends one intro message before being added - 1 photo, first name, where you're from, which group you want. We remove anyone flagged for harassment or scams. We're a community of travellers and locals, not a business directory.

Lisbon People Club is run by long-term Lisbon residents and travellers who believe nobody should stay alone here. We started informally with one WhatsApp group; now we moderate several. It's a labor of love, not a company.
