The WORST

After 1.5 years of being on the waitlist, I was accepted to Raya. I paid the monthly fee. The pictures I saw reeked of social climbers. Absolute nobodies. I exited the app after a few minutes of browsing. I was in another app that’s completely separate from Raya. I took 1-2 screenshots in that app with Raya still open in the background. When I went back hours later I opened the app only to find out I was BANNED for screenshotting in a completely different app!! I emailed Raya support and they said someone would get back to me. I never received a response after that. This app is a total sham—stay as far away as possible!!

The worst

It’s honestly the worst app. They will take you money and not even try to fix problems if you email them. They’re pretentious and feel very entitled. Waste of money

Love

So much better than every other dating app. Not even close.

good community

Met my partner here so…. high quality people, great for dating and networking. thank you Raya

Restrictive dating at its finest

You can’t filter by age or location. Just gender and if you are looking for networking or dates. A LOT of AI profiles which is wild for them being so “selective”. You constantly fed people thousands of miles away. Also everything is a paid feature on top of membership dues. I had this for a good three-month run and was really unsatisfied.

Not worth the price

$30 a month to only be able to see 10 profiles at a time. The occasional celebrity profile will pop up to keep you interested, but honestly i feel like they are paid to have fake profiles on Raya to make money off the people they let into the app

Not inclusive of everyone

Would be an excellent fit for Raya, but if you don’t have an instagram (like myself) you immediately get waitlisted. Some people actively choose NOT to be on social media and there should be other means of verification.

Insulted

I’m worth millions of dollars I am number one in my field. I’m famous all over my state. I’m probably the top one percent as far as looks go but yet they don’t accept my application. I’m insulted.

Terrible

Waste of time. I make great money, have plenty of talents and opportunities, but still wasn’t admitted. This is an app for narcissists who spend must spend all their time on Instagram. What about the rest of us who are too busy living amazing lives without posting every single moment on Instagram? You’re leaving out a whole huge part of the market who are interesting, qualified people who don’t live every moment on Instagram.

Doesn’t work

Never got a date off this as a good looking guy. Don’t recommend and it’s a waste of time.

Not that much for the money

Considering you are paying a lot you really don’t get that many likes or people to swipe on each day

Why am I paying if I can’t use it?

What is the point in having a paid service if you have to sit around for an undefined period of time, waiting to be able to use it? What’s the point of a Premium subscription if you can’t even see who likes your profile? This app is a joke.

Disappointing

Maybe 95% of members are in finance, real estate or “founders.” I was hoping for a higher concentration of creatives than on other apps not branded as exclusive but the ratio actually seems to be worse. What exactly is exclusive about this?

Do not recommend

They make it sound like they’re better than other apps just by making a little harder to get in, then you have to pay a lot for a dating app that in the end doesn’t work very well, show you just a few people every 24h, don’t let you do anything or see anything, biggest regret of my life

No sirve para conectar

Usuarios que viven a miles de kilómetros, nno se logran conversaciones ni tampoco un mínimo intercambio de saludos, nadie conecta. Incómoda de usar
En fin, Malísima.

Not great

While it has some very attractive high profile people on there, they don’t talk to you, hardly anyone located in Australia, or maybe there is and you can’t see them and they aren’t matched with you. I’ve had a few people match and they don’t talk to you so it’s a bit redundant unless you are very famous or a model

Cancellation

I have been trying to cancel for several months now. Not once have I received correspondence from your team. This app is a scam and you can’t get out of it despite their agreement stating you can cancel any time.

Sorte no jogo e no amor

Saí com três pessoas, o terceiro é o amor da minha vida e os outros dois eram tão legais que apresentaria para minhas amigas

Worst dating app I’ve used

The problem with this app is it’s really only good for NY or LA. If you live anywhere else then good luck finding matches. The app also does not let you narrow down profiles by location or age, so it’s a big mixed bag. Hinge will give you a much wider selection. It’s also hard to get an idea of someone’s personality on this app since very few people fill anything out. I tell people this is a great app to see attractive people around the country that you’ll never date. I think the only reason anyone is on this app is to say they are on the app. So if you’re looking for “clout” then I guess it’s worth your money.

Hinge is better

Hinge is better no one uses or responds on Raya because they prioritize feminine men who curate their instagrams lol.
