We’re different because we take your search as seriously as you do. Our discerning application process keeps the community well-balanced, highly engaged, and full of high-powered (and empowered) people committed to finding love.

At the League, we provide a highly curated experience where members are introduced to a limited daily number of high-potential matches, leading to IRL connections and onto a meaningful relationship.

Over half of League members went to top 40 colleges, 30% have advanced degrees, and a quarter are in Executive or Director roles in their professions. The League strongly believes that three quality matches are better than 100 bad ones. So keep those standards sky-high— because a Leaguer would rather be single than settle.

Ah, the all-powerful League matching algorithm. Wondering how it works and how you can make it work best for you? Let’s review:

Every day at Happy Hour (5pm local time), you’ll receive profiles to review on the Scout tab. We do our very best to only show you to people who meet your preferences, AND where you meet theirs, prioritized by those with whom we think you will have the highest compatibility–we don’t believe in wasting anyone’s time! The number of potentials you see daily is calculated primarily based on your subscription tier. Still, that number is also dependent on the size of our community in your area as well as your preferences.

Behavioral data and years of experience creating successful matches allow The League to make additional recommendations for you based on more than just your preferences. For example, set a goal to become Pickleball World Champion? You just might find your practice partner and soulmate in your next Batch based on that shared goal.

In an ongoing effort to foster a highly engaged community, a user who likes everyone but never messages will be deprioritized in the matching algorithm. This lack of communication on the app will also impact your flakiness score, and ‘Flakes’ will eventually get kicked out! On the other hand, users who log in daily have a higher match rate, so check the app often.

So now that you know how the algorithm works, how can you get more matches? First, make sure you have a complete profile and 6 high-quality photos. Your first photo is your first impression, so make sure it’s your best one! Our data shows that users with 4-6 photos in their profiles match twice as often as those with fewer.

Next, be open-minded. Your height/age/distance preferences may be causing you to filter out ‘THE ONE,’ not to mention narrowing your dating pool. We recommend being as inclusive as possible. And the more people you like, the higher your chances of matching.

We require you to authenticate your account to receive free access to The League as a Member. LinkedIn is our preferred method for verification, as we can automatically import your education and profession for you. You will not see LI contacts, and we’ll hide you from your coworkers. (Do you want to see your boss on a dating app? We didn’t think so.) We will not show any LinkedIn data outside of your education and profession, and you can control what data is visible on your profile. To do this, go to Edit Profile then Education or Profession and tap the green eye icons signifying ‘visible’ to make them hidden. 

Alternatively, we offer Doximity, an edu email verification, or corporate email address verification as alternate authentication methods.

This should be particularly rare on The League, but if you find this is the case, we want to know about it. The first step is to tap the ‘Flag’ icon on the user’s profile and select the appropriate reason. Next, let the Concierge know so we can verify the issue and take appropriate action.

You should feel comfortable using the ‘Flag’ icon freely for users who are rude, have low-quality profiles, or make you feel unsafe so we can remove them from The League community.

Expire: This will end the conversation you have with a match. If you change your mind and the feeling is mutual, you and the match may be able to ‘Rematch’ at a later date.

 

Block: Blocking a user will end the conversation and never allow you or your match to see or communicate with one another on the app again, with the exception of Groups and Events.  That is a public forum where all users congregate; think of walking into a bar, and you may run into that ex.

Flag: This option behaves much like a block, but it also alerts The League team to review this person’s profile for whatever activity prompted you to Flag them. Again, with the exception of Groups and Events. That is a public forum where all users congregate; think of walking into a bar, and you may run into that ex.

Some of the events are League-sponsored, but not all! We’ll be sure to tell you if they are, but many of the events you’ll find on the app have been imported via Eventbrite or Meetup or created by subscribing League members.The League app is a great place to promote and increase awareness of your events, so if you’re hosting one that you’d like to share with the League community, we hope you will! Note: The League is not responsible for any event that is not League-Sponsored.
