AOA Connect

One meeting every morning

At 08:00 your chance arrives: one person or a table for four, a place and a time. You have 24 hours to decide, and then it is a conversation in person.

Set up your profile
08:00

Why only one chance a day?

You can scroll a feed forever and never actually meet anyone. One chance in the morning is harder to put off: it's a specific person, place and hour.

You can't pick a person by hand. Matching filters out people you shouldn't see and leaves one suggestion.

Step 1 · Profile

When and what to talk about?

Set up your profile once and change it whenever you like. Verify your identity through Diia: that way every chance leads to a real person.

  • Free hours

    The days and times that suit you to meet.

  • Area

    Where works for you, so the place is nearby.

  • Interests and topics

    What you enjoy talking about.

  • Goal

    Friendship, networking, romance or just a conversation.

Step 2 · Format

One on one, or four of you?

You choose the format in your profile and can change it any time.

1 on 1

A conversation for two

Four of you

A table for 4 and a shared topic

Step 3 · Meeting type

Similarity or difference?

You can't choose the person, but you can choose the type of meeting. Your choice applies until the next morning.

Similarity

Shared interests, easy conversation

Difference

A new circle, a different view

Step 4 · Chance

At 08:00 your chance arrives

The suggestion shows shared interests and topics to talk about. You decide just one thing: meet or not.

  • 08:00

    One chance every morning: a person or a table for four, a place and a time.

  • 24 hours

    That's how long you have to say yes. With no reply, the chance expires.

  • “Not today”

    You can decline or take a pause. A new chance arrives tomorrow.

Step 5 · Mutual

You both said yes?

Then you plan it together, without endless messaging.

  1. Time first

    One of you suggests 2-3 slots that work, the other picks one.

  2. Then the place

    A recommended venue and two alternatives among AOA partner venues. Some offer a bonus during quiet hours.

  3. Something doesn't work

    Once, you can ask for a different time or place.

Step 6 · On site

Show up and tap the tag

After that, it is just the two of you and the conversation.

  • 20 minutes before

    You both confirm you are coming, and the table is booked automatically.

  • On site

    Tap your phone on the NFC tag on the table. The other person sees that you're already there and your table number.

  • Afterwards

    Short feedback. It goes only into matching, and nobody sees ratings of people.

Rules

Fair to everyone

Someone is already waiting at the table. That is why the rules are the same for everyone.

  • Verified profiles only

    Only people who have verified their identity through Diia get into matching.

  • You can cancel in advance

    Cancelling more than 12 hours before the meeting costs nothing.

  • Three late cancellations

    Within 30 days, these pause AOA Connect for 14 days. A no-show counts as two. If you had a good reason, file an appeal.

  • If the other person didn't show up

    The next day you get an extra try to ask for another option.

  • From age 16

    Under 18, matching happens only among peers, and these meetings are never scheduled at bars.

  • No public ratings

    Feedback after a meeting is seen only by the matching algorithm.

Your chance could arrive tomorrow at 08:00

Set up your profile today, and your first chance could arrive as soon as tomorrow morning.

Every morning at 08:00 you get one chance: one person or a table for four, a place and a time. You have 24 hours to decide whether to meet.

You can scroll a feed forever and never actually meet anyone. One chance in the morning is harder to put off: it's a specific person, place and hour.

No, and that's on purpose. Matching filters out people you shouldn't see and leaves one suggestion. You can choose the format and the type of meeting.

This is the type of meeting you pick before your chance. Similarity: someone from your circle with close interests. Difference: someone from another field with different experience. Your choice applies until the next morning.

You plan the meeting together. One of you suggests 2-3 time slots that work, the other picks one. Then the place: the recommended one or one of two alternatives among AOA partner venues. Once, you can ask for a different time or place. 20 minutes before the meeting, you both confirm you are coming, and the table is booked automatically.

That's fine. With no response within 24 hours, the chance simply expires, and a new one arrives the next morning. You can also pause AOA Connect.

Cancelling more than 12 hours before the meeting costs nothing. Three late cancellations within 30 days pause AOA Connect for 14 days, and a no-show counts as two. If you had a good reason, you can file an appeal.

Only people who have verified their identity through Diia get into matching. There are no public ratings of people: feedback after a meeting goes only into matching. Meetings take place at AOA partner venues.

16. Under 18, matching happens only among peers aged 16-17, and these meetings are never scheduled at bars.

Romantic meetings are always one on one; the table for four is not available for them. You set the gender and age range you want, and they are checked on both sides.
