Why Gateway Exists

After major life changes, dating feels impossible. Standard apps don't get it. You're not just getting back into dating—you're navigating a complex life transition.

Gateway is built for you. You match with people in similar situations. Everyone's verified. It's private. It's intentional.

The Gateway Difference

Situation Matching

Matched based on your life stage, not just photos. You connect with people who actually understand what you're going through.

Verified Members

Everyone proves who they are. No catfish. You know you're talking to real people in real situations.

Private & Discrete

Blurred photos until you match. Messages auto-delete after 30 days. Billing shows generic descriptor. Your privacy matters.

Intentional Design

5 matches per day. This isn't endless swiping. It's about quality connections with people who matter.

Share your situation

Tell us where you are (separated, ending relationship, etc.)

2

3
