Frequently asked questions
Can I meet singles from another country?
Yes. Set the search distance to "anywhere": you will then discover singles from every country, on the continent and in the diaspora. To meet people near you, simply reduce the distance.
How do I protect myself from romance scams?
Never send money to someone you have never met, whatever the emergency. Suggest a video call before getting attached, favour verified profiles, and stay on the app's messaging at first. If in doubt, report and block the profile.
Is African Dating free?
Yes for the essentials: sign-up, profile, likes and unlimited chat after every match. Diamonds and Premium are optional: they help you go faster.
How do I get the verified profile badge?
Take a selfie copying the requested gesture: it is compared with your photos. Once approved, the blue badge appears on your profile and other members know you are a real person.
How do I send a message to a member?
The simplest way: a mutual like opens the chat, free and unlimited. If you don't want to wait for a match, the priority message, paid in diamonds (cheaper with Premium), lets you write right away.
What do you do about fake profiles?
Photos are checked automatically, profiles can be verified with a selfie and the moderation team reviews every report. Every member can report or block a profile in two taps, from the profile or the conversation.
