Card info stole

After using this app my card info was stolen. I had a bad feeling when using it so I used my Cash card which allows me to limit the money on the account as well as lock the card. I keep getting notifications of failed purchases. I’m unsure if it’s this app or the company I purchased food from but either way there is a security flaw.

We are not sure how can you guaranteedly say your card information was stolen from our platform. We would would really appreciate if you can show us the proof so we will rectify any security flaws in our platform and also compensate you for any loss you might have incurred. We take security of our data and as well as our customer data very seriously. We serve thousands of customers and we have built many platforms prior to this that are used by millions of users and we never had any such security complaints with the systems we built. We built our platform with security in mind from the day one. Every feature we add goes through complete security audit before we release it to customers. Security and Quality are not after thoughts in our platform. In fact we don't even store your credit card information in our platform. Your credit card information is stored in a secure payment vault outside our platform, even if someone were to hack into our system they won't be able to get your credit card information. We never share your credit card information with the restaurant where you placed the order. We never sell any of your data to anyone. Can you please share any evidence you have to prove that your card information is stolen from our system, we are very curious to understand the problem. Please send any relevant information you have about this issue to support@joyousapp.com. Looking forward to hear from you.

Poor service

The discount I get from the app did not reflect on the price when I check out. I emailed the customer service and never heard back. Disappointed!

Response from developer

We have responded to your email with details of the every order you have placed in our platform. We have shown in our response you got a discount on every single order that you have placed. I hope you are satisfied with our response. If not please do send an email to support@joyousapp.com and we will take care of your concern.

Great for local favorites

Easy to use. Great for reordering from your favorite restaurants.

Thank you for your words of appreciation.

Great idea

So disappointed because my order did not meet the minimum for delivery. I’m by myself and I don’t need $35 with of food. I don’t have a car anymore so I can’t pick up.
But it’s a great idea to have a local restaurant delivery service for people who are ordering for a group so no reason not to use Joyous if you’re in that situation.

We are very sorry that you couldn't use our service due to minimum delivery order was high for your needs. Based on your feedback now we have lowered our delivery minimum. Hope you can use our service next time. We appreciate your feedback.

Seasoned user giving a thumbs up!!

Very convenient and also receive lot of great promotions. The prices are not marked up in-line other apps and they are exactly how you would find on the restaurant menu. The app also keeps getting regular updates with new and cool features added. Been a great experience for me.

From someone like me who has been using this app for the longest time, this review might be coming a bit too late but nevertheless hoping it helps the credibility!

Local, Indy restaurants, not chains

I like that they don’t work with the big chain restaurants, only local restaurants that are part of the community.

The discounts are also pretty dang nice!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for this positive review. We are very glad you like our mission to work only with local restaurants NOT corporate owned restaurants. We are glad to hear that you like our unique innovation of forever discounts. We are looking forward to serve you.

Daily spin

I loved the daily spin concept. Getting good discounts every day. Very much better prices compared to Uber eats.

Response from developer

Thank you for your words of encouragement with this review. We are very glad to hear that you like our recent feature of "Daily Chance". As you mentioned we don't inflate prices and add junk fees. In fact our delivery prices starts with just $1.99, which is one of the lowest compared to all other delivery platforms.

BEWARE of fraud!

We had a good first experience and decided to try again. I received a notification that my order had been delivered (It hadn’t). Almost immediately I received a separate text asking me to contact DoorDash for delivery (Do they contract with DoorDash?). Then I received a text from the restaurant recommending that I come in to pick up my food. I was never contacted again by anyone from Joyous, and they kept the delivery driver tip. I’ve tried to contact them through app and social media and have received no response. I was excited to try a local business, and I’m disappointed that they stole my money and have completely ignored my requests for assistance.

We would like to clarify that this order was placed end of February when there was an unexpected snow storm in the Portland area. It was very difficult to deliver due to icy conditions, most of our drivers were not available hence we sent the order to a third party for delivery. We never got any communication from this customer. We only learnt his order was not delivered only when we saw this review here. As soon as we saw the review, we did contact the customer and explained what happened. We also refunded all the fees we collected including the tips. We called the customer several times to verify he got his fees refunded back to his account and he confirmed the receipt of the same. Again we are extremely sorry that we didn't deliver your order due to inclement weather but this is more of an exception in our service due to weather which is beyond our control.

Smooth experience

Used this app for the first time today and it was easy to download, sign in with my Apple credentials and start my order. The menu was easy to navigate and pickup was smooth. Very happy to get a discount and love the lack of inflated prices and additional fees. Only wish more of my fav restaurants were available.
