Every evening at 7PM, we send you a handful of people we think you will connect with. Match, commit, and Terra books the venue. No chatting before the date. Just show up.
Terra goes live on 9 September at 7PM.
West Africa Time • Lagos, Abuja and Ibadan
Terra strips dating back to what actually matters: meeting someone. No endless texting. No ghosting. No algorithm rabbit holes.
Every evening, a curated set of between 5 and 15 people appears in your feed. You have until the next matchround to review them. A focused ritual, once a day. No swiping forever.
When you both say yes, you have matched. You each provide your availability and spend a Terra Knock token to confirm you are going. No chatting before the date. Your first real conversation happens in person.
We select a curated venue, confirm the booking, and arrange a complimentary welcome drink. All you do is say your name at the door. The staff know you are on a Terra date.
If you have spent months trading messages with people you never actually meet, Terra was made for you.
Profiles arrive once a day, at 7PM. You review your curated selection, take your time, and you are done. You are not pulled back every ten minutes to swipe. Dating becomes something you look forward to each evening, not something that quietly eats your life.
Terra shows you the whole person before you decide. Prompts, values, faith, heritage, and what they are actually looking for. Not a single photo and a one-line bio. Fewer people, more information, better decisions.
The Terra Knock is a commitment step both people take before the date is confirmed. It filters out the time-wasters, the bored swipers, and the people who never intend to show up. When you match on Terra, you are matching with someone who actually wants to be there.
Faith, values, and dating intention carry real weight in how Terra matches you. If you are marriage-minded, you are shown to people who feel the same. Terra was built for the African dater from scratch, not translated from somewhere else.
Every measure below is in place before anyone goes on a Terra date. We do not launch until it is.
You only meet people who have confirmed their identity through our verification process. No anonymous profiles. No surprises at the door.
The venue knows you are coming on a Terra date. Staff are part of making the experience safe and smooth from the moment you walk in.
Terra dates happen in the evenings and on weekends. Our safety team is reachable during those exact hours. You are never left without someone to call.
Every profile and every date screen has a direct reporting option. We review every report within 24 hours. Serious violations are acted on immediately.
You never have to share your number in person. After the date, Terra privately asks each of you whether you want to exchange contacts. Only if you both say yes does it happen. You are never put on the spot at the table, and a stranger never gets your number without your permission.
When your date is done, Terra follows up to make sure you are okay. It is a small thing that matters a lot, especially if something felt off. You are never just left to deal with it alone.
If anything makes you feel unsafe during a date, do not wait. Tap below to reach us on WhatsApp or by email. Both are monitored during all date hours, every evening and on weekends.
WhatsApp our safety team safety@terra.datingActive every evening and on weekends during date hours. For non-urgent matters, email hello@terra.dating or use our in-app support.
We send verified, committed couples to curated venues for intimate first dates. You get consistent, advance bookings from people who are there to have a real experience.
Terra books tables ahead of time. You always know a couple is coming, and the table is never left empty at the last minute.
Terra handles payment before the date. You receive a pre-agreed amount per couple with no invoicing or chasing required.
Every Terra date includes a complimentary welcome drink. We reimburse you for it. Part of the experience, at no cost to your venue.
Every Terra couple is verified and has paid a commitment token. These are not last-minute no-shows. These are people who have invested in showing up and having a good time.
We are building our venue network ahead of launch. If you run a restaurant, bar, or private dining space in any of our launch cities, we would love to talk.
