Getting started

How do I download Peck?

Get Peck from the App Store or Google Play.

Can I use Peck on desktop?

Peck is built for mobile, so it's only available on phones. That way you can connect on the go.

How do I verify my profile?

You don't need to do anything extra. The Peck team reviews and verifies your profile picture within 24 hours of upload.

No, location can't be hidden. Peck uses it to help you connect with potential matches.

How it works

What are Coffee, Drink, Ride and Flower invites?

A like is a simple sign of interest. The Wingman feature goes further: you can invite someone for a coffee, a drink or a ride, or send them flowers. It's the next step toward a real date.

Can I schedule a date through Peck?

Yes. Send a Coffee, Drinks or Ride invite, then chat to plan your outing with your match.

What's the difference between a Like and a Golden Like?

A normal Like is free and unlimited, and it puts you in the other person's Liked You list. A Golden Like is part of Peck Pass. You can send one per profile at a time until it expires, and it sends the other person a notification so your interest is clear.

Do matches expire?

No. Matches stay until one of you disconnects. Invitations do expire, though: accept or decline them within 7 days, or they disappear.

Does distance matter for matching?

Peck shows you potential matches regardless of distance, so you can connect wherever you are.

What is Peck Pass?
