You have a listing on The Lineup — here's how to claim it, make it yours, and keep it updated.
Step 1: Find Your Business
Go to the directory and search for your business name. Click your listing to open it.
At the bottom of your listing you'll see one of two things:
- "Claim this listing" — click this to get started (go to Step 2)
- "Manage your listing" — you're already set up (skip to Step 3)
If your business isn't listed yet, visit suggest a listing to add it. Give us your business name, area, and category and we'll create your listing so you can claim it.
Step 2: Claim Your Listing and Create Your Account
Claiming is free and takes about two minutes. Click "Claim this listing" and you'll set up your account right there:
- Enter your name and email
- Choose a password — this is your login from now on. No magic links, no waiting for an email to sign in.
- Submit your claim
That's it. Free claims are reviewed by our team (usually within a few hours) to confirm you're with the business. You'll get an email the moment your claim is approved, and then you have full access to edit your listing.
You can sign back in anytime at getthelineup.com/manage with your email and password.
Forgot your password? On the login screen, click "Forgot password" and we'll email you a link to set a new one.
Step 3: Open Your Dashboard
Go to getthelineup.com/manage and sign in. Your dashboard lists everything you manage — your business listing (and any advertising you run with us).
In the top-right corner you'll find Account settings, where you can update your email, change your password, and add a second contact for your business. Next to it is Log out.
Click your listing to open its manager.
Step 4: Edit Your Listing
Your listing manager is where you keep everything current. You can update:
- Business description — tell people what makes your place special
- Phone number — so customers can reach you
- Website — link to your site or Facebook page
- Hours — set your open hours for each day
- Address — make sure people can find you
- Price range and pricing — give people an idea of what to expect
Text changes go live right away. No waiting for approval.
Step 5: Add Photos
Photos make a big difference — listings with photos get more clicks.
- Add a photo — click to upload from the photos section. Your free listing includes up to three photos.
- Set your main photo — click the star on any photo to make it your main listing image.
- Remove a photo — click the X on any photo you want gone.
Photos are reviewed before they go live, usually within 24 hours.
Photo tips:
- Exterior shots help people recognize your business
- Interior and atmosphere photos show what the experience is like
- Food photos work great for restaurants
- Landscape (horizontal) photos look best
- JPG, PNG, or WebP, up to 5MB each
Step 6: Save Your Changes
Each section has its own "Save changes" button — right next to Hours, your description, and so on. Make your edits in a section, then click Save for that section. This way nothing gets lost on a long page.
- Text changes (description, phone, hours, website, address) go live right away
- Photo changes are reviewed first, usually within 24 hours
Adding Events
If your business hosts events — trivia nights, live music, happy hours, classes, anything — you can add them to our events calendar.
In your listing manager, click "Submit an Event" and fill in the name, date, time, and category. Your event appears on the calendar after a quick review.
Have a lot of events? Upload your schedule (spreadsheet, PDF, or screenshot) and we'll add them all for you.
Upgrade Options (Optional)
Claiming and managing your listing is always free. If you'd like to stand out, two paid upgrades are available right from the top of your listing manager:
- Featured — $19/year. A full photo gallery (up to 10 photos), your menu, a special offer or deal, and click analytics so you can see how many people are finding and clicking your listing.
- Top of Category — $79/year. Everything in Featured, plus top placement in your category so you show up first when people browse your food type or business type. Slots are limited (only three per category), so this one can sell out in your area.
To upgrade, open your listing manager and choose a tier from the ladder across the top. The change happens right inside your dashboard — you'll never lose your place.
