From the DART to your sofa
Whether you’re on the DART along the coast, the Luas into town or finally in after a long day, getting started is quick. Enter as a guest: choose your gender, give your date of birth and confirm you’re 18 or over. An account with email or Google is optional, handy for keeping your progress between devices. Next (or Esc) brings someone new, Stop lets you take a breather. Read more in video chat with no sign-up.
English, Irish and the rest of the world
Dublin is a city where you’ll hear English, some Irish, and lots of Polish, Portuguese, Spanish and other languages from people who’ve moved here to live, work or study. The text chat translates messages automatically, so you can talk with someone in Madrid, Kraków or São Paulo even if you share no language, and the website is available in six. Fancy trying your Spanish? See our talk to foreigners page.
Southside, Northside or further afield
You choose how close your matches are:
- Proximity: shows people near you first. There’s no city filter, so you might meet someone from Bray, Maynooth or even Belfast.
- My country: matches stay within Ireland.
Both are free during our launch period and will later be part of Premium. For Ireland as a whole, see video chat in Ireland.
Prices in euro, no conversion needed
Good news for Dubliners: Premium is priced in euro, so there’s no exchange rate to think about. It costs €7.99 a week or €19.99 a month, cancel whenever you want. It lets you choose who you see, removes ads and adds a 30-day history. You can also earn free days by inviting a friend, or by finishing in the top three of the weekly chili ranking.
Hot hour runs every night from 22:00 to 23:00 Spanish time, and chilis 🌶️ earned then count double. The app shows a countdown, so you don’t need to work out the difference with Irish time. Spend chilis on superpowers like Super hello, Incognito or Second chance.
Meeting up in Dublin safely
If you both want to meet, keep the first date somewhere busy, such as a café or pub in the city centre, at a reasonable hour. Make your own way there and home, by Luas, bus or taxi, and let a friend know where you are. Online, don’t share your address, workplace or bank details, and be wary of anyone asking for money or private photos. Video is relayed through our server, so your IP stays hidden, and real people review every report. More in our safety tips.
