Frequently asked questions.

NetHitch is an upcoming app and website for making friends and dating, built for Gen Z and open to anyone aged 18 or over. We are in pre-launch with a working prototype, and pre-registration is open now.

Both. Lots of people want new friends and new dates, and the two overlap more than most apps admit. You choose what you are here for, whether that is a plus-one, a best friend or a bit of both.

Anyone 18 or over who wants a friendlier way to meet people online. We are building with Gen Z front of mind, from every corner of the world, and everyone who likes the idea is welcome.

We do not have a public launch date yet. We would rather launch it right than launch it fast. Pre-registered members will be the first to know when that changes.

Yes. We are building for iOS, Android and the web. Pre-register and we will tell you the moment your platform is ready.

NetHitch will be free to join. Some premium extras will come later, and pre-registering now gets you a discount on your first subscription.

It is one word: N-E-T-H-I-T-C-H. People also write it as Net Hitch, Hitchnet, Hitch Net or Netitch, and every one of those should lead you to us. Our website is nethitch.com.

Go straight to nethitch.com, or search for “NetHitch”. Our social accounts are linked from the footer of every page. If you land somewhere that looks different, double-check the spelling and the address.

A hitch is the place where two things connect, and the net is where we all spend our time. NetHitch is where two people, or a whole group of them, link up.

Head to the pre-registration page, add your name and email, tick the three boxes and send it. It takes less than a minute.

Early access ahead of the general public, founding member pricing on your first subscription, and updates before anyone else. There is a full breakdown on our About page.

No. Pre-registration is completely free and never asks for payment details.

Please do. We do not have a formal referral programme yet, but the earlier your friends are on the list, the earlier they get in too.

You will hear from us by email as launch gets closer, and again the moment the app is ready to download.

Quite a few, and they are a surprise. We are keeping the details sealed until the official launch because we want you to experience them rather than read about them. You can see the teasers on our features page.

Honestly, you will have to try it. We built it around comfort, honesty and fun instead of pressure, and spelling out exactly how it works would spoil the part we are most excited for you to feel.

Privacy and control are core to how NetHitch is built. Exactly how that works is part of what we are saving for launch.

We treat protecting your data as a foundation, not a feature. Read our Privacy Policy for what we collect and how it is used.

Trust is built into the core of the product. We are not publishing the exact mechanics before launch, but keeping fakes and bots out is one of the problems NetHitch exists to solve.

Tell us. Our Safety page has guidance and reporting contacts, and we read every report, even before launch.

Yes. NetHitch is for adults aged 18 and over only, in line with our Terms of Service.

Yes, we are open to the right investors at our current prototype stage. Visit our Invest page for what we offer and what we look for in a partner.

Yes. We are building our founding team across engineering, design, legal, trust and growth. See open roles on our Careers page.
