The Problem

  • Online friends you'll never meet in person
  • Missing out on real friendships

  • Gaming leads to coffee, LAN parties, and hangouts
  • Build lasting local friendships
  • Join a thriving local gaming community

Safety-First Approach

We understand meeting new people can be intimidating. That's why we've built LANder with your safety in mind.

Gradual Trust Building

Start with online gaming sessions. Only meet in person when both parties are comfortable, typically after weeks or months of playing together.

Verified Profiles

Multi-factor verification including gaming accounts, phone numbers, and social media. Know you're talking to real people.

Public Meetup Locations

First meetings happen at gaming cafes, coffee shops, or public LAN events. Never at private residences until trust is established.

Community Ratings

Comprehensive rating system for both online behavior and in-person meetups. Bad actors are quickly identified and removed.
