YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH IT

These stories are real.
Yours probably is too.

Every one of these happened to someone we know. Some of them happened to us.

"I transferred 200k to someone I met on Snapchat."

He sent a location pin and disappeared forever. The money? Gone. The lesson? Expensive.

"The listing photos looked like a hotel."

The real place looked like it gave up on life. The ceiling had feelings. The bathroom had history.

"My flatmate used my towel."

MY towel. And hung it back like nothing happened. We lived together for 3 more months. In silence.

Done cringing? Good. Now let's find you a flatmate who isn't a nightmare.

01 / 04

₦0 agent fees

You deal with the person, not a chain of agents. Browsing is free on both sides.

02 / 04

Verified profiles

ID and phone verification badges, so you know who you are talking to before you meet.

03 / 04

SecurePay

Rent is held at a licensed financial institution until you release it. Never in a Flatmate account.

04 / 04

Report anything

Reports and blocks are reviewed by people. Bad actors lose their listings, then their accounts.

You've got questions.

We've probably heard them before.

Is this actually free or is there a catch?

Free to download, browse and match. Publishing a photo listing costs 2 credits, or 5 with a video, and starting a chat costs 2.5 credits. New accounts get 10 free credits; you can earn more by completing your profile or buy a top-up.

How do I know people on here are real?

Every user can verify with a government ID and a live selfie. Verified users get a badge. You can also video call anyone before committing — see their face, hear their voice, ask the hard questions.

How is this different from just using WhatsApp or Twitter?

WhatsApp groups have 800 people, no verification, and zero structure. Twitter is just vibes and hope. We match you based on 12 lifestyle traits, verify identities, and give you tools to actually manage living together after you move in.

I'm not in Lagos — does this work for me?

Yes. Flatmate works across all 36 states. Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Enugu, Ibadan — wherever you're looking. If there are people searching in your area, we'll match you.

What if my flatmate turns out to be terrible?

You can report any member and our team reviews every report. Bad actors lose their listings, then their accounts. And if you need to move on, your listing and profile are yours to relist, so finding a replacement starts the same day.

Can I list my own space if I need a flatmate?

Yes. Post photos, set your price, add house rules, and let people come to you. You see their profile and verification before accepting anyone — no more blind roommate roulette.

What if there aren't enough people in my area yet?

We're growing fast. The more people who sign up in your area, the better your matches get. Download now, set up your profile, and you'll be first in line when your area fills up.
