Description

Our focus at Raya is to provide members with access to exciting people and opportunities around the world. We are a private community where people come to connect for dating, networking, and friendship. – Prospective members may download the app and submit an application. Once submitted, applications are placed in queue and reviewed continually. An applicant's status can change from "waitlisted" to "accepted" at any time. Once accepted, members have the option to purchase a 1, 6, or 12 month auto-renewing membership and will have full functionality of the entire service while their subscription is active. Raya's community values – trust, respect, and privacy – are core to the membership experience. Members who act in a manner that is not reflective of these values and other community guidelines may have their accounts suspended or terminated. Similarly, Raya exhibits those values as a company by giving members full control over their visibility within the community at all times and ensuring that personal information is secure and never shared, among other things. Initial payment is charged via iTunes Account at confirmation of purchase and auto-renewals are charged within 24 hours prior to the end of the applicable period. Auto-renewal may be turned off at any time through iTunes Account Settings. Any subscription cancellation will be effective at the end of the applicable period.

  • Good Potential, Poor Execution

    By Anna C Smith
    Pro: higher quality dating prospects Cons: - There’s no ability to limit radius on member suggestions. I see the idea behind showing potential matches that you might not otherwise see, but someone on the other side of the globe is not on my radar as a potential match. - When you do use the Members Nearby option, neither age nor gender preferences line up. - What’s the point of your plus membership benefits? The benefits are for show only. There’s no actual use for them. The one benefit I wanted was the “see who likes you”. What it doesn’t clearly define is that it will only show that a profile likes you if they also are in your suggestions. If I’m paying that much more for Plus, I want to see who likes me anytime someone likes my profile. - Travel isn’t helpful unless you’re traveling to a big city. - Personal issue: Height isn’t required. This does matter to most tall, heterosexual females that I know. I won’t date someone shorter than me.
  • They make you reapply if you take a break

    Paid for this app for awhile and thought it was ridiculous that they put you back on the waitlist after funneling so much money into it. It’s much less exclusive than you think and I haven’t found the connections to be better than elsewhere.
  • Literally no one respondes

    And Raya does nothing to incentivize people to care. No genuine connections.
  • Waitlisted

    The waitlist is atrocious. Only social media members get in. Not real classy people. Need 20 referrals to get in.
  • I was on a waiting list for this?

    Awful. Catalog photos of pretty people who appear completely detached from reality while presenting false lives. Got enough of that in LA for free. Nobody talks, nobody connects, most are on the app for the sake of it. File this under “can’t believe I paid for an app that’s a combo of LinkedIn and MySpace”.
  • Limited options

    By Lauren Wallett
    You get limited options and they’re international so don’t expect to match with people in your area code. There are more attractive people but it’s not very conversational.
  • Wasted potential. Who is on the SE team for this?

    The premise of this app is great— and it’s done a really good job at becoming a popular app for “higher quality” networking and dating. But the interface is so bad. I could design a better smoother app overnight with Cursor and Im a 20 year old girl who can’t code. Wasted potential.
  • My phone number is being used without permission – No support response!

    I’ve been receiving verification codes from Raya even though I never tried to sign up or log in. This suggests someone is trying to use my phone number without my consent, which is a serious privacy violation. I contacted support twice and received no response. Their website doesn’t work (Error 505), and their Twitter account seems to be gone. At this point, there is no way to communicate with the company or protect my information. If I don’t hear back soon, I will report this issue to Apple directly for further investigation. Raya must be held accountable for failing to protect users’ data and ignoring support requests.
  • Worth absolutely nothing

    This app maybe had its time in the sun 5 years ago. This is just another tinder, but worse. There is no value to this platform and you’re better off using other similar apps. They also make you pay to access your profile once you get “accepted”. I looked around for maybe 5 minutes and couldn’t see why there is any hype at all. Oh and the company doesn’t offer refunds. Terrible experience. Terrible customer support. Don’t waste your time or $!
  • Applications???

    I thought this was a dating app, not a job opening. Dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.
