WHY we BUILT GOBANTER
Because when you know who’s open to connect, it changes everything. That’s why we built GoBanter - to help awesome humans meet IRL.
"I’d feel more comfortable telling people I met someone in real life than on a dating app."

Because IRL connection shouldn’t feel impossible for single people. Traditional dating apps have become exhausting due to ghosting, endless messaging that never lead to meet ups, and this has all lead to general dating app fatigue.
Venues feel cliquey. And most people have no idea who’s actually single or how to start a conversation.
GoBanter bridges that awkward gap with events that make it easy to show up, vibe with the room, and meet someone the natural way — through presence, not profiles.

It’s where single awesome humans meet IRL!
A GoBanter Night is a real-world social experience for singles who are ready to ditch the apps and rediscover face-to-face connection. Think curated vibes, welcoming venues, and moments where making eye contact with someone new isn’t weird — it’s exciting.
It’s not speed dating. There are no awkward chair rotations or forced convos. Just real people, real places, and the real possibility of something sparking.
