Stake dating app

One thing catches your eye. Start there.

Stake is a dating app for adults on Android. You like a specific part of a profile, with an optional message. If the other person likes you back, you can chat.

Show what you are looking for

Add at least three photos and three prompt answers before turning on discoverability. Choose your country and city, then use discovery filters to find people in selected cities or globally.

The Looking for choices are: Life partner, Friendship, Dates, Exploring, Parties, Relationship, Hookup, One Night. These choices describe your intent. They are not a promise about how a connection will turn out.

Like a photo or a prompt

Tap the like control on the part of a profile that caught your attention. You can add a message before sending it. A Duet lets you complete the other person's prompt as your opener.

You get 8 regular likes each day. A Spark is a separate way to show stronger interest. You can see who liked you and what they liked.

A match starts a 72-hour conversation

When someone likes you back, your temporary match lasts three days. You can talk and decide whether you want to keep the connection. If neither of you makes it permanent before the timer ends, the match and conversation expire.

Only one person needs to choose Make permanent. The match then has no expiry timer. Either person can still unmatch or block the other.

You control who you talk to

You can report or block a person from their profile or conversation. You can also turn off discoverability in the app. Read the privacy policy for how profile information, messages and uploaded files are handled.
