Questions, answered plainly

Date Africa Diamonds is a dating app for Africa, the African diaspora, and people seeking a genuine relationship with someone African. It is built for people dating with intent — across cities, countries and continents — rather than for casual browsing.

Singles living across the African continent, Africans living abroad who want to meet someone who understands home, and people anywhere in the world who are seriously interested in a relationship with an African partner. Everyone must be 18 or over.

No. This website is where you learn about Date Africa Diamonds, understand how we approach safety, and get support. The dating experience itself lives in our native iOS and Android apps.

Not yet. The apps are in development and are not published on the App Store or Google Play. Join the waitlist and we will email you the moment they are live — we will not send you to a store listing that does not exist.

We store your email address so we can tell you when the app launches, and nothing more. You can unsubscribe from any email we send. We do not sell or share your address, and joining the waitlist does not create a dating profile.

You create a profile, say what you are looking for, complete verification, and start discovering people whose intentions line up with yours. When someone genuinely stands out, you can send them a Golden Spark.

A Golden Spark is how you tell one person they genuinely stood out. It carries more weight than an ordinary like, so real interest is unmistakable before a single message is exchanged.

Live Matchmaking is a guided, human-led route to meeting someone. Instead of browsing on your own, your priorities are understood first and introductions are made with those priorities in mind. You always decide whether a conversation begins.

Membership pricing has not been announced yet. We will publish full pricing, including what is available without paying, before the apps launch. Waitlist members will be told first.

Creating an account, building a profile and discovering people is part of the core experience. The exact split between free and paid membership will be published before launch.

Verification is part of the experience and exists to raise the cost of pretending to be someone you are not. We will publish exactly what our verification checks involve before launch, so you can judge the signal for yourself rather than take our word for it.

Every profile and conversation can be reported, and you can block anyone at any time without explanation. Reports are reviewed against our Community Guidelines, and accounts that break them lose access.

No dating platform can promise that fraud will never reach you, and we will not pretend otherwise. What we can do is verify members, act on reports, and be direct about the single rule that stops most romance fraud: nobody you meet here should ever need your money. If someone asks, report them.

It can be, with care. Video call before you get emotionally invested, keep conversations on the app until you trust someone, never send money, and tell someone you trust about any travel plans. Our safety guidelines cover cross-border dating specifically.

Yes. You can request deletion of your account and the personal data associated with it. The Privacy Policy explains what is deleted, what we are required to retain, and how to make the request.

You can reach us through the support page, or email support@dateafricadiamond.com. If your message concerns someone's safety, use the safety route so it is prioritised.
