Meet First

On Pedigree you get to know the person before anything is decided. A match opens a conversation, and a Meet First request asks that match to meet in person, with a note and a public place.

How it works

  1. 01

    Match and talk

    When you and another member both like each other's profile, a conversation opens. A match is a chance to talk. It is not an agreement to anything.

  2. 02

    Video call before you meet

    A video call is a good first step. Someone who keeps avoiding one is telling you something.

  3. 03

    Send a Meet First request

    Ask your match to meet in person, with a note and a public place.

  4. 04

    Meet somewhere public

    Meet somewhere public and busy the first time, and the next few times too. Tell a friend who you are meeting, where, and when you expect to be back.

Good to know

  • Keep your home and work addresses to yourself until you know the person well.
  • Arrange your own way there and back.
