Never arrive cold.

Start conversations around places and rooms before walking in.

Built for real life. Not endless scrolling.

The best moments don't always announce themselves. They happen nearby — at a rooftop, a campus, a coffee shop, a market, a venue, a room. Proximate helps you notice them before they're gone.

Privacy first

Privacy is what makes real-world discovery feel safe.

People will not use a location-based social app unless they believe they stay in control. Proximate is designed around visibility you choose, not exact public exposure.

✓ Neighborhood privacy bubble instead of exact public position.
✓ Profile control before joining public rooms.
✓ Block, report, and leave rooms quickly.
✓ Verified venues and safety cues where available.
PRXM rewards
Rewards

Rewards should feel like momentum, not noise.

PRXM works best when it is tied to useful behavior: joining real rooms, inviting friends, checking in, and helping the map feel alive.

Before you jump in.

The quick answers people usually want before trying Proximate.

Is my exact location visible?

No. Proximate is designed around privacy controls and safer location discovery, not exposing your exact spot publicly.

Is Proximate only for dating?

No. Dating can happen, but Proximate is for real-world social discovery: people, hubs, venues, events, and conversations nearby.

What are Live Hubs?

Live Hubs are active rooms or places where people are gathering, chatting, or discovering what’s happening around them.

How do Rewards work?

You can earn rewards for actions that help the community grow, such as joining, inviting, and completing your profile.

Can I leave or block someone?

Yes. You can leave rooms, block users, and report behavior that makes the experience unsafe or uncomfortable.

Where is Proximate available?

Proximate focuses on South Africa, with Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban highlighted as key cities.
