The Difference

## Structured offline social life. A category of its own.

Social Membership Club
✓
One match at a time.
✓
No in-app messaging.
✓
Every venue is curated.
✓
Every member is verified.
✓
Built for real connection.
What Fika is not
For comparison
—
Endless browsing. Algorithms surface hundreds of profiles — designed to keep you in the app, not to get you out meeting people.
—
Open messaging from the start. Most conversations never lead to a real meeting.
—
You choose the place and time — often a vague "grab a drink" with no structure.
—
Self-reported profiles. No identity verification for most platforms. Bots and fake accounts are a known problem.
—
Optimised for retention — the model depends on you not finding what you're looking for.
The Member Journey

## From sign-up to real life — step by step.

Every Fika member moves through the same five steps. The process is structured on purpose — it's what makes every meeting feel meaningful before it even happens.
1
the first thing every member does

### Take the compatibility test, once.

The first thing every member does is take a 15-minute compatibility test — 75 questions covering values, personality, lifestyle, relationship priorities, deal-breakers, availability, and preferences. It is taken once and never repeated.
The test covers who you are, what you're looking for, your values and lifestyle, deal-breakers, availability, and the kind of meeting you'd enjoy — coffee, dinner, a walk, an activity. You also write a few open answers in your own words. It's designed to feel like self-discovery, not a form.

Fika finds your match

### Fika matches you — every morning.

Every day at 07:00 in your local time, Fika runs the match. Deal-breakers are filtered out first. Everyone with 60% compatibility or above is considered. You receive a notification when a new match is ready.
You only ever see people you are genuinely compatible with. No one else on Fika can see your profile unless they are a real match for you.

built specifically for the two of you

### Read the Story — then decide.

When you're matched, Fika creates a Story — a dynamic, personalised presentation built specifically for the two of you. It is not a profile. It shows how you two relate to each other.
The Story works like an Instagram story: tap to move forward, hold to pause. At any point you can say yes to meeting.

a small mutual commitment

### Say yes — with a Fika token.

You have 36 hours to respond to a match. If you want to meet, you confirm with a Fika token. When both people confirm, Fika chooses the time and place — based on availability and preferences from your test — and sends you both the details.

this is what Fika is for

### Meet. Give feedback. Keep going.

You show up. That's it. After the meeting, Fika asks both of you for feedback: how was the venue, how was the meeting, would you like to see each other again?
If both say yes, the chat stays open. If one person says no, the chat closes — no ambiguity, no being left wondering. You will always know where you stand. You won't receive a new match until you've given feedback on the last one.

The Fika Story

## Not a profile. A story about two people.

Fika doesn't show you who someone is. It shows you how the two of you relate. Every Story is built specifically for that pair — it reads like the beginning of something, not a checklist. The data behind it is far richer than what you see; Fika uses it for matching, not for display.

You, 33

What you have in common
You both value deep conversations over small talk, prefer spontaneous weekends, and are equally committed to staying active. The way Johan answered about what matters most to him lines up closely with what you wrote. Fika introduced you because the fundamentals match — the rest happens in real life.

Who Fika Is For

## For the people who'll matter — however you meet them.

Fika is a Social Membership Club for people who want a richer offline social life — whatever that means for them. Some members are looking for new friends in a city they've just moved to. Some are open to wherever a real connection leads. Most are open to both.

### New friends

Meet interesting people outside your existing circles. Fika matches on values and personality — the things real friendships are actually built on.

### Real connection

A considered introduction — with genuine compatibility behind it, a verified person on the other side, and a meeting that's already been arranged.

### Whatever it becomes

On Fika, what you're looking for can evolve. Members stay because Fika becomes their social life — not because they're waiting to find one person and leave.

### For every city

Stockholm, Ho Chi Minh City, Seattle, Singapore, Hong Kong. Fika is a global club — same structure, same care, the same real meetings everywhere.
