How Greenlight Date works

Greenlight Date helps eligible singles age 18 and older move from a complete profile to a specific date offer instead of collecting open ended matches.

From profile to a real plan

Greenlight Date is an offer first dating app on the web and Android for eligible singles age 18 and older. Members browse complete profiles with moderated photos and video introductions, use visible availability to plan a date, and send a concrete offer with an activity, day, time, and place.

1. Create and publish your profile

Sign up, add your profile information and moderated photos, then publish your profile. You can also add a video introduction and use optional smart photo ordering.

You do not need to buy a plan before publishing your profile or participating. At a live Greenlight Date singles event, check in with the event code to discover fellow attendees.

2. Find someone you want to ask out

Browse member profiles and look at the availability they choose to share. The goal is to identify a real time and activity that could work, not to wait for an unlimited message thread.

3. Send a specific date offer or counter offer

Choose an activity, day, time, and public location, then send the offer. The other member can accept, suggest a counter offer with a new day, time, or place, or decline privately with no awkward rejection message and no chat opened.

4. Coordinate, reconfirm, add to calendar, and check in after the date

Messaging opens after an offer is accepted. Each person can send up to 20 messages for that date cycle to coordinate the plan. You can add the date to Google Calendar or download an .ics calendar file.

Both people reconfirm within the four hours before the scheduled start. You can also share a private date safety link with a trusted friend. Members who consistently confirm and keep their dates can earn the Shows up reliability badge.

After the date, complete a private check-in with standout tags, an optional review of up to 120 characters, and your second-date choice. If both people want to meet again, Greenlight Date reveals the mutual yes.
