We believe current dating apps aren’t optimized to help you fall in love, so they leave you alone after the match. 8dates takes over after the match and recommends great date ideas, 8 of them based on your interest. We know it takes more than a swipe to find love. If you can make it to 8, you’ve probably found someone special.

App partners with affiliates to create a dating economy that couples will significantly benefit from. App sends couples to affiliates and then will get paid. Couples have a great night, and app generates revenue; 8dates of fun and 8dates of income.

On registration You select what are you interested in. It can be changed later in User Profile. The secret to how we monetize the pending relationship is showing profiles with the feature “I’m interested in going to” and getting someone with similar interests.

Monetization strategy

Previously, there were only two ways to generate revenue on a dating app; advertising and subscriptions. We created a third, “the dating economy”, which we believe is the first dating marketplace for singles and newly matched couples. When our couples go to restaurants and events, we will get paid.

App will work with a global network of affiliate partners that are ready to welcome our couples for amazing dinners, fun events, concerts, and even get away weekends when you get closer to 8.

Technology stack

Future

Additionally

Built the app using the latest Cloud Infrastructure technology available to ensure we serve up the right date idea at the right time. Partnered with Azure for machine learning for the best possible recommendations.

Outcomes.

8dates is inspired by platforms like Amazon and will serve up activities and events that align with users' interests, like Facebook. This smart app will use machine learning to know what couples want when they first meet, and we built the app to deliver just that, a shared interest with someone you find attractive.
