ABOUT THIS PROJECT
DareLisa is a private, 21+ dating app for open-minded singles, couples and the unhappy, built for the lifestyle community: Bull, Hotwife, Cuck, Cuckqueen and Explorer.
We're raising R120,000 to build our Global User Acquisition Engine and Phase 2 Matching Features: about 1,300 new members and smarter ways for the right people to find each other.
THE BACKGROUND
Mainstream dating apps are built for one-to-one, monogamous dating.
Open-minded singles, couples and people in relationships that need something more have very few places built for them, and even fewer that take privacy seriously.
DareLisa launched on 24 August 2026 on iOS, Android and the web. Members can blur their photos with a privacy slider, so others must request access to see them.
They can post anonymously or with their username in the Confession Booth and send a DM to match instantly. Most members are photo-verified, it's free for women, and it's available in five languages.
Since launch: 5,000+ downloads, 1,200+ members in 20+ countries and 25,500+ Instagram followers, on a lean ad budget.

Project FAQ
Meet the founders
-
DareLisa is built by two co-founders whose skills fit together:
-
Andrew Du Preez founded WorkWhiz, a Johannesburg AI automation and software company that builds custom AI agents, dashboards and integrations for South African businesses. His background is in relationship management and tech delivery. He solves real problems first and builds trust by showing results, and he leads partnerhsips at DareLisa.
-
Oboh Christian Oseahu (Chris) is a marketing and brand entrepreneur who has worked with Flying Fish, Savanna, Hyundai, MTN and MAXHOSA. He founded the creative agency Vegas House, which was featured on SABC’s Young Entrepreneurs, and he is also a co-founder of WorkWhiz. Chris works full time on DareLisa, leading marketing, brand development and user acquisition.
-
Together they have already built and run a business side by side. Andrew brings the technology and the client relationships, and Chris brings the storytelling and the reach. That is the mix DareLisa needs to build a product people trust and to grow the community around it.
Where are we based?
- South Africa, serving members in 20+ countries.
Why Crowdfunding?
- Because our members are our best investors.
- Crowdfunding lets the people who use DareLisa back it directly, get Premium for less, and help shape what we build next, without us giving away control of the company.
What is the plan once 100% funding is received?
- Within 7 days we activate every backer’s reward on their DareLisa account.
- We then put R66,000 into reaching about 1,300 new members over the following months and build our Phase 2 matching features, with updates to backers along the way.
- Lifetime Founders get early access to new features in private beta and VIP access to our premium events.
