About Us

We're revolutionizing how people from the diaspora connect, date, and build meaningful relationships worldwide.

Our Story

Love should feel like home—even if you're miles away from it. We know the struggle: you're in the diaspora, trying to find someone who actually gets your culture, your humor, and why jollof rice supremacy is non-negotiable. But most dating apps? They miss the mark. They don't factor in the magic of shared traditions, deep-rooted values, and the unspoken bond that comes with cultural connection.
That's why we built Lyne—a space where Nigerians (and those who love Nigerian culture) can find real, meaningful connections beyond the swipe. Whether you're in Toronto, Houston, or still chilling in Lagos, we're bridging hearts across borders—one shared laugh, memory, and late-night gist at a time. Ready to meet your match?
