UBeLong is a verified, human-moderated home for LGBTQ+ adults — and it's more than dating. We're for singles, couples, and friends who want a real community.

Every voice is protected.

✓ Human-verified members ✓ 18+ only ✓ No kink-shaming. No faith-shaming. Ever.
✓ Verified by a real human
🏠 A home, not a swipe mill

For singles, couples, and friends. From kink to faith, from casual to marriage-minded, from monogamous to polyamorous — there's a room for you here. The only rule in every room: respect each other, or find the door.

What's inside

A home with many rooms — for singles, couples, and friends.

Most apps are just dating. UBeLong is a whole community — and we even take the stress out of planning the actual date. Each space is protected by the same rule: be kind, or be gone.

❤️

Long-term dating

For people who want something real and lasting. Profiles carry a "what I'm bringing to the community" prompt — so you meet people who want connection, not just a match.

🔥

Hookups & casual

Honest, consensual, and verified — same human checks as everyone else. No catfish, no scams, no guessing who's real behind a blank profile.

🤝

Friendship

Not dating? Perfect. Find your people — community without romantic pressure. Couples and non-daters are welcome and wanted here.

💍

Couples hub

Stay after you've found your person. Plan date nights at a discount, meet other couples, and keep belonging. Polyamorous? Fully welcome.

🗓️

Confirmed Date tool

The anti-ghosting system. Both confirm the date. Serious? Put down a small deposit, get 10% off a date package. Flake and you get a strike. No more vanishing acts.

🎟️

Custom date curation Free with membership

We plan the date for you — free, included in your membership. Share your vibe and we build date ideas right on your profile, or curate a custom date after you match. Discounted tickets & gift cards sourced for you. You just show up.

🍴

Themed meetups

Group dinners and gatherings by personality and interest — Mingleo-style, but themed, and a fraction of the cost. Atlanta-area first, more cities as we grow.

🎮

Virtual events

Game nights, watch parties, and online socials — everywhere from day one. Show up in sweatpants, make friends across the country.

🐾

Kinks & preferences

An intentional, no-shame space for BDSM, pup play, and every kink — find others who share it knowingly. Zero kink-shaming: reported and you're gone.

🕊️

Faith & values

For those who want a cleaner, faith-aligned, or values-led connection — marriage-minded, waiting, sober, traditional. Zero faith-shaming too.

Why UBeLong exists

"I got tired of being scammed, ghosted, and disappeared on. So I'm building the community I wished existed."

I'm Logan. I'm 37, I live in Athens, Georgia, and I run a Chuck E. Cheese — a place built on making kids feel safe and happy. A couple of years ago I came out of a relationship that was traumatic, but that ultimately showed me how strong I am and what I'm worth. My longest relationship before that lasted almost ten years.

Recently I stepped back into online dating, and it broke my heart in a different way. I had guy after guy try to scam me for money. I got ghosted constantly. I'd plan a date, feel like I was finally connecting with someone — and then they'd just vanish. It's crazy-making. And the apps themselves? Either they're expensive just to be allowed to talk to anyone, or they're wide open to scammers and people who treat other humans like disposable swipes.

So I decided to build something different. UBeLong isn't a money-grabbing company preying on people who are lonely and longing for connection. It's a real, safe community — human-verified, genuinely moderated, affordable on purpose. A place where you can find your person or your people, and where you're protected while you look. That's the whole point.

Why $30 a year, not $3 a month?

If we did our job, you'd leave. So this can't be just dating.

That's the honest truth most dating apps won't say. If UBeLong were only a matchmaking tool, the moment you found your match we'd lose you — and you'd feel weird paying for a year. But UBeLong is a community. You come for dating; you stay for the friendships, the couples hub, the game nights, the meetups, the people who have your back. Annual isn't a trap — it's the whole point.

Custom date curation — and it's free with your membership.

Matching is only the start. UBeLong acts like your personal date curator — and the curation itself is included in your membership at no extra cost. Tell us the vibe you want, and we build a custom date using discounted tickets and gift cards we source for you. You only pay for the actual date package, at a member rate. No planning anxiety, no "where should we go" — just arrive and enjoy.

① Date ideas on your profile

Share your interests and the vibes you love, and we build out potential curated dates that live right on your profile. When someone's checking you out, they can see real date ideas you'd enjoy — and pick one to surprise you with. It's a menu of ready-to-go dates, tailored to you.

② Custom curation after you match

Once you've matched and you're talking, ask each other what you'd like to do — then have us curate a custom date based on what you both said. Fully customized to the conversation you just had. The most personal date possible, handled for you.

  1. Share your vibe. Tell us the kinds of dates you love — it shows up as ready date ideas on your profile.
  2. Match & talk. Connect with someone, or let a match pick a date idea right from your profile.
  3. We curate it — free. Custom or pre-built, we source discounted tickets & gift cards for the date.
  4. Show up & enjoy. You only pay for the date package itself, at a member rate. The planning was on us.

💷 Dutch-first — no free-meal hunters

Every curated date starts as Dutch (split evenly), so no one's here just for a free meal. But if the date goes really well, either person can choose to cover the whole bill and send the money back to the other afterward. Generosity earned, not expected.

Zero money between members. No exceptions. Asking another member for money — for any reason — is strictly forbidden and grounds for removal. UBeLong is not a place to be be hit up for cash, ever.

🆓 Not every date needs a price tag

Paid packages are great — but some of the best dates cost nothing. UBeLong curates free date ideas too, so connection never depends on your budget:

Your safety is part of the date.

  • We can plan the trail or place. Tell us the vibe and we'll suggest a specific, vetted spot — a park loop, a public trail, a cozy café district.
  • Verified means accountable. Because every member is video-verified, if anything ever happened on a date, we'd know exactly who you were last with.
  • Check-in when you're ready. A built-in check-in lets you quietly update us that you feel safe — or flag that you don't. No drama, just a safety net.
  • Optional live location share. During a date you can choose to share your location with UBeLong so someone always knows where you are. You turn it on, you turn it off — always your call.
Membership

Our annual costs less than their monthly.

A full year of UBeLong is literally the price of one month on most dating apps — and on some, that might only buy you a couple of weeks. We give you a whole year for $30. And there are no "premium" pay-to-talk scams here: you pay your low membership fee and you get full access to everything. No tiers. No paywalls on conversation. No "upgrade to message" tricks.

Start monthly

Your paid time doesn't start until you're approved — verification can take up to 72 hours because a real human reviews every video and photo.

Safety is the whole point

Verified, not exposed.

Every member submits a live video so a real human can confirm they match their photos. That video is never recorded or stored. You get a Verified badge — other members get peace of mind. It's the moat no big app will build.

📹

Human verification

Every video & photo reviewed by a person — not an algorithm.

🎭

Discreet mode

Not out yet? Stay faceless publicly — verified privately. You're safe here.

🛡️

Anti-ghost dates

Deposits, strikes, and accountability. Flaking has consequences.

🚨

Scam-prevention

Free courses and alerts. And no member may ask another for money — ever.

Not ready to be out? You belong here too. We verify you privately and protect your privacy publicly — and before any in-person date, both people share faces privately in-app. Safety for everyone, on every side.
