Product Questions

Interesting tagline for a dating app, huh? The League claims to screen users via some mysterious algorithm that 'keeps the community well-balanced and high-quality,' while somehow hiding you from. A lot of people have questions about The League dating app requirements. According to CEO, Amanda Bradford, the app was designed to appeal to people who value “ambition and intelligence above everything else.” So you want to exude these two things. Some pointers: 1. Give your Facebook and LinkedIn profiles a once-over before applying.

This number is entirely dependent on the preferences that you state when you apply for The League and the number of users in your area that have signed up and are looking for people like you! If you set your preferences super narrow, you will have less daily Prospects, and less people will see your profile as well. Once you let us know your preferences during registration, we will let you know if you have a below average number of Prospects. That being said, it only takes one, remember?
This number is also dependent on your preferences and the makeup of your local community. If you set your preferences super narrow, you will have less daily Prospects, and less people will see your profile as well, resulting in less matches. The wider you set your preferences, the more visibility your profile will get, and the faster you will see Matches.

We use LinkedIn to block you from your coworkers (as self-identified on LinkedIn as ‘currently’ working for the same company). We also use it to show your mutual connections, build your profile, and verify users are who they claim they are. We don’t have access to any of your contacts nor their email addresses and we don’t email or notify any of them that you’ve signed up for The League.
Nope – we only store your contacts’ names and unique IDs so that we can show them as mutual friends and also block them from you in our matching algorithm. We do not collect any email addresses nor can we notify your contacts in any way.
No way. As mentioned above we do not have access to your contacts nor would we want to have access. Our core tenet is helping our users keep their work life and personal life separate.
LinkedIn does not give us access to your username and password so there is no risk to you. LinkedIn provides a portal that we integrate with to allow you to link your profile without us ever knowing your user credentials. Thus, we do not have access to your username and password.
No. The League is designed to cater to people who want privacy and control over who can view their dating profile. We would never intentionally notify your friends or post on your timeline.
We need photos so we can create your profile. Other info like current city, hometown, likes, interests, and education are things we use to match you more effectively, but we can only get this information if you grant us the permissions on Facebook. It seems as though a common interest in Beastie Boys IS a statistically significant indicator for love….
Facebook does not give us access to your username and password so there is no risk to you. Facebook has a feature called Facebook Connect that allows us to let you use your Facebook profile to login/logout of the League without us ever knowing your user credentials. Thus, we do not have access nor do we store your username and password.
Yes, our servers are securely hosted by a top database provider that large Fortune-100 companies trust with their customers’ data. Please email us if you’d like more information about the security of our database vendor.

Ever wonder what kinds of crazy stuff people say about matches they flag or block on dating apps?

Well, The League has a juicy internal Slack channel that’s chock full of this exact type of user feedback. They've shared a selection with Mashable, and it's frighteningly relatable.

There's the person who complained their match took “too many selfies even for me,” and the match who was flagged for being an “asshole in real life.”

But, truly, let us spare a moment for the person who was dismissed with a simple, “Has a little rat dog, no thanks.” Harsh but fair.

So, here’s how it all works. The League, the elite dating app which matches you based on your LinkedIn info and emphasizes treating people well, allows you to flag, block, or expire any of your matches. When you choose to do this, you’re given the option to fill out a little note field explaining why.

Surprisingly, Meredith Davis, The League's Director of Communications & Partnerships, told me that most people do take this chance to say something.

After you complete the request, your text is automatically routed into a dedicated Slack channel that's monitored by their staff. Don’t stress, it’s anonymized.

Of course, some of the behavior people report is legitimately bad, and that’s taken seriously. But a big chunk of what people write is really just commentary or mild complaint.

They pay attention to it all, and, when it comes to some of the most amusing gems, Davis told me, “Our team loves reading these out loud before office all-hands meetings!' 0_0

Some of the notes people leave are harmless and totally understandable reasons why it's not a match. Like, 'reminds me too much of my ex,' or this situation which so many of us have found ourselves in:

Sometimes you just don't click.

'Went out with him... and no,' one user wrote.

Then, there are those who behaved badly and got caught out. Take the woman who said this of her IRL meetup, 'He invited two dates to the same event and didn't tell us.' Not cool. And then there's this all too common occurrence.

Getting ghosted can suck, but one woman got an especially cruel version of it:

'Awesome date actually had a great time and a lot in common. He moved to SD 4 days later after telling me he didn't want to leave LA. Cool.'

And then there was this guy who just doesn't seem to have very good manners.

And, of course, there's always the risk you'll get ripped off.

While it's easy to see why the above scenarios didn't sit well with people, some of the concerns people express seem more, well, petty — if not entirely made up. For instance, the guy who recently complained, 'She said it didn't matter if your brush or floss first. She's obviously crazy.'

Or this person:

But sometimes a dealbreaker is a dealbreaker, and you just can't argue with it. Take this person, who recognized a bad commute when they saw one: 'F the westside, two hours of traffic for 20min of dick. Ain't nobody got time for that.'

And finally, there is this one-word classic:

One thing’s for sure, there really is no reason too small for giving up on someone.

RIP all those love stories that could have been written, were it not for the little rat dog or the “go big blue” that ruined it all.
