How can I opt out of matching?

I'd like to opt-out of matching

You could choose to disable matching for a while, and then re-enable matching when you want to rejoin the program!

First, you'll need to access the personal settings page:

Microsoft Teams

Click on the "My settings" tab in the CoffeePals App on Microsoft Teams

If you cannot access the settings tab, you can send a personal message to the CoffeePals bot that says: Settings. The bot will send you a card and you can click the three dots option to open the web app settings.

Slack

In slack, head over to the CoffeePals App Home Tab and click the Manage settings button. You will be prompted to login with your slack credentials.



Find and click on the Program you'd like to opt-out of matching from


Toggle the "Include me in matches" button to turn on or off matching

I'm on vacation and I need to pause matching 🌞

You could choose to pause matching until a certain date, after which matching will be automatically reenable! To pause matching:

Follow the previous steps to get to the settings page.

Select the program you want to pause matching for.

Under "Pause matching", choose the date until which you'd like to pause matching


Once you select a date, click save.

I'm no longer interested in receiving matches and I don't need to be on the team

To stop matching, you can simply leave the team in Microsoft Teams or Slack channel. We may ask you one final time if you've had the chance to meet up with your match. After that, you won't receive any more notifications from the CoffeePals App.

You can still access your personal settings from the dashboard, if you prefer!

Please let us know why it wasn't for you. We're always eager to hear feedback from our users to improve the product in the future. Send us a message using the purple button at the bottom right of the screen or contact us at support@coffeepals.com.
