HOW WE'RE DIFFERENT THAN ZOOM SPEED DATING EVENTS:
-
Events last about 30-45 minutes. (Unlike Zoom events that can take up to 1.5 - 2 hrs.)
-
Attendees select yes or no after each round
-
Platform tabulates matches so less chance of errors
-
Match emails sent within 3 hours of event
-
Attendees don't show up then log out immediately if they don't see anyone they like. (Frequently happens with Zoom events.)
-
All interactions and speed dates are private
HOW IT WORKS:
-
You'll register for an event online and will be required to give your email and phone number when registering.
-
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO REGISTER WITH YOUR CORRECT EMAIL ADDRESS AND PHONE NUMBER.
-
An email will be sent ONE HOUR before the event with log in instructions and a unique URL.
-
Each URL is unique to prevent sharing. If two people use the same link, it will automatically block both participants from the event.
-
You MUST log on using that URL at least 10 minutes before the advertised start time. This is very important. If you log on only a couple minutes before, you will not be admitted into the event.
-
We do not have the ability to admit late arrivals into the event.
-
You'll meet each potential match for 3-5 minutes depending on size of the group.
-
After each round, you will select whether your date was a match.
-
After your last round, you will have the chance to review your matches and edit them. Once submitted, selections can not be changed.
-
3 hours after the event, you will receive an email letting you know if you have matches,
-
Emails are sent if an attendee does or does not have matches.
-
If you don't have at least 5 dates, you will be given a code to register for another event for free.
