FAQ
Before you apply.
How do I join?
Apply in the iOS app. Every application is reviewed, and acceptance is not guaranteed.
What does it cost?
Membership is $249/month for men. Women pay nothing — no membership fee and no date fees. When you set a date and time, VAELA books the venue for you; this costs $30 per date and is required for every booked date. Food and drinks are paid at the venue.
How does verification work?
VAELA verifies your identity document once. It is kept private and never shown to other members.
How are introductions made?
Members answer 15 questions. AI matches a small number of introductions based on how those answers align. There is no feed. Chat opens between two members once they both accept a date.
Who does VAELA introduce?
Right now VAELA introduces men and women. We're starting with one city and one format, and we'll expand from there.
Can I take screenshots?
Screenshots are against the rules and can result in immediate removal of your membership without refund.
Where is VAELA available?
VAELA is launching first in Miami.
Is it on Android?
Not yet. VAELA is launching on iOS first.
When does it launch?
Soon. A specific launch date has not been announced.
