How we rank results
The order venues and caterers appear in search, and what decides it. Places in search are not for sale.
Who is in search
Venues and caterers our team approved that have an active plan or trial. We show only those that fit the place, date, group size, occasion and filters you chose.
Venues marked "Demo" are made-up examples that show how Bunchspot works. Hide them with the "No demo venues" filter.
The default order: Recommended
New venues get an average score for rating, experience and answering until they have their own.
| What we look at | Weight |
|---|---|
| Guest rating on Bunchspot (pulled towards the average while there are few reviews) | 30 % |
| Experience with your kind of event | 25 % |
| How fast and how often the venue answers | 15 % |
| Whether the price fits your budget and group | 15 % |
| What you chose before (booked and saved venues), only when signed in | 10 % |
| A special offer for your date | 5 % |
Payment and ranking
There are no paid positions or sponsored results.
The plan affects one thing: a special offer counts, for the "Special offer" mark and for its weight in the order, only for venues on the Pro plan. The Google rating shows on the card only on Pro and does not affect the Recommended order.
Bunchspot has no venues of its own to put ahead of others.
Other orders
You can sort by price, rating, name or capacity instead. Then only that measure counts.
