Something happened before hello.
A new approach to dating, launching first in the United States.
Ghosted? Your Ticket comes back.
This is a Ticket.
You need one to start a conversation. Tickets are the only thing we sell, and they don’t expire.
You start a conversation.
When you both like each other, it’s a soft match, and either of you can start a conversation with a Ticket. A soft match lasts 21 days. A conversation that uses a Ticket makes it a hard match, which doesn’t expire.
Then it goes one of two ways.
Here are both, side by side.
A week goes by.
If they don’t reply in 7 days, the Ticket comes back to you, automatically. If they reply, you have until the later of 7 days after you started and 48 hours after their reply to reply back.
Used only when you both reply.
No reply: your Ticket came back, ready to use again, and either of you can start over with a Ticket. They replied and you replied back: the Ticket is used, it’s a hard match, and you keep talking without another Ticket.
