Sure we want to. Of course we dare!

Dare to be
you.

On Dare you don't like people. You take a selfie right now, ask a real question and wait for the other person to dare to satisfy their curiosity.

The Dare story

We got tired of perfect photos.

So we invented a dare.

On dating apps, people choose each other by carefully picked photos. Some are years old, others have been through three filters. Then they meet for coffee and don't recognise each other.

Dare starts from the opposite idea: that someone should get to know you as you are now. Today. With your hair however it turned out and your real smile.

That's why on Dare you don't like. You dare.

To reach someone, you take a selfie on the spot, with your phone's camera, no gallery and no filters, and you ask them a question. A real one, one you actually want the answer to.

They receive your dare with your photo blurred. To see you, they have to dare too: they answer with a selfie taken there and then, or write the truth in reply to your question. Only then do you see each other, for a few seconds. And only then does the conversation begin.

It's a little harder than a swipe. That's exactly the point: whoever takes a step towards you really wants to meet you.

Grown-ups
forget to play.

We've grown used to being careful: showing only our best side, weighing every word, risking nothing. Dating apps look the same: a catalogue where everyone is posing.

Dare takes you a little out of your comfort zone, with a game. And a game tells you more about someone than ten carefully chosen photos: who laughs at their own selfie, who answers honestly, who takes the dare and who throws it back, with a smile.

We don't ask you to be perfect. Just to be there, now. The rest is play.

How it works

Four steps to
a real conversation.

No endless swiping and no messages sent in bulk. Every conversation on Dare starts with two people who dared.

1.

A selfie. Now.

Swipe the card up or tap Dare. The front camera opens: no gallery, no filters, just your face today.

2.

A real question.

Pick an idea from the list or write your own. If they choose Truth, that's the question they answer.

3.

They dare too.

They get your dare with your photo blurred and have 24 hours to answer, with a selfie or a written truth.

4.

You see each other. You talk.

The photo shows for a few seconds, then your conversation opens.

For those who want more

Daredevil.
The game inside the chat.

When a conversation is going well, you can make it bolder. Daredevil only starts if you both want it.

  • 1One asks, the other chooses. “Hell Yeah!” and the game is on. “Angel me” and you keep chatting as usual.
  • 2Silence costs a selfie. If you go quiet for 12 hours and one of you writes again, the other sends a fresh selfie first to see the new message. A conversation that went cold comes back with a face, not just a “hey”.
  • 3Leave whenever you like. Either of you can stop the game at any time, on your own, from the orange tab under the bar.
More than a chat

Playful, but careful.

A few small things that make conversations on Dare different.

True or false?

A question game right inside the chat. You both answer, and you see the answers only once each of you has replied.

True or false?

In high school, people said you were a great kisser? Are you still as good?

TrueFalse

The flame

Light it next to the paperclip before you send. The message or photo burns once the other person has seen it.

The lock

Send a photo with a lock: the other person sees only a shadow until you open it. If they're curious, they can ask you to unlock it.

Civil Mode

When you need some quiet, Dare goes silent: nobody sees you and you lose nothing. Dares you've received don't expire while you're away.

Your safety

Real people. Fair play.

On Dare you play with people, not fake profiles. Here's what we do to keep the game fun.

Selfies taken now

Dares start with a selfie taken on the spot, with your face in the frame. Not from the gallery.

Checked photos

Every photo is checked automatically before it reaches anyone. Explicit nudity doesn't get through.

Easy reporting

Block or report someone from the chat menu. We read every report.

Adults only

Dare is for people over 18. Your date of birth is set once.

Discreet notifications

Notifications never show what was written to you: only who wrote and how many messages you have.

Your data stays in Europe

Your profile, photos and conversations are stored on servers in the European Union, in Belgium.

Questions

In short.

What is Dare?

A dating app where, instead of a like, you send a dare: a selfie taken now and a real question. The other person sees you only if they dare to answer.

Why do I have to take the selfie on the spot?

So the other person sees you as you are now. Gallery photos can be old or filtered; a selfie taken now can't. Your face has to be in the photo.

What is Daredevil?

A game you start in a chat only if you both want it. One of you proposes it, the other answers “Hell Yeah!” or “Angel me”. While it's on, the chat bar turns orange. If you go quiet for 12 hours and one of you writes again, the other sends a selfie first to see the new message.

Who sees my photos?

Your profile photos are seen by people in their deck. Every photo is checked automatically before it reaches anyone, and photos with explicit nudity don't get through.
