FAQs
Can I really start learning The Dating Code™ for free?

Unlike other dating courses, ours is:
- Tried and tested, first-hand (with in-field demonstrations)
- Reviewed and approved by psychotherapists
- Developed with and approved by single women
- Aware of confidence issues and men's mental health
- Research-backed
- Led by experts

I have severe 'approach anxiety' - will this course help me?
Yes, this course teaches you methods to help overcome approach anxiety.
However, please note that our course is not a replacement for medical, psychiatric or psychological treatment or support. We strongly encourage you to work with a suitably qualified professional if you are suffering from general anxiety.
I have low self-esteem / low self-confidence - can this course help me with dating?
Yes, we teach methods that can work even for men with low self-esteem, utilising positive psychology, cognitive behavioural coaching and guided imagery.
However, please note that our course is not a replacement for medical, psychiatric or psychological treatment or support. We strongly encourage you to work with a suitably qualified professional if you are suffering from low self-esteem.
I am on the autistic spectrum - can this course help me with dating?
Absolutely, yes.
In fact, autistic people may benefit the most, since some people with autism like structure and logical rules, which this course offers. Additionally, some people on the autistic spectrum can sometimes unknowingly break social conventions - but this can actually be beneficial when speaking with women in some scenarios.
Steve also has experience of coaching men with autism to become good at dating, some of whom have gone on to have loving long-term relationships.
Can I get a full refund if I am not satisfied?
Yes, there is a 30-day money back guarantee in case you are not satisfied for any reason.
No fuss, no quibble.
However, we're confident that you will get lots of value out of the course.
Does your course feature in-field demonstrations with real women?
Yes, we have in-field footage recorded when approaching real women (who are not identified visually or otherwise in the footage).
Have you hired actresses for any in-field footage?
All of the in-field footage in our course of approaching women was made with real women, and their reactions are completely authentic. They were not briefed in advance.
For showing what a successful date looks like, as well as demonstrating certain techniques, we may use actresses from time to time. Such clips will be marked for transparency, to let you know we are using an actress for demonstration purposes.
Did you get consent from the women shown in your in-field footage, to use it in the course?
While not a legal requirement when filming in public, we have, in nearly all approaches (where feasible), and out of an abundance of courtesy and respect, told the women after we approached them what we were doing, why we were doing it, and asked for their verbal consent to show them in our course with their face censored, to which they agreed.
Additionally, we have removed any personally identifiable details (such as names and phone numbers) in line with privacy and data protection laws.
How long do I have to complete or access the course?
Your purchase of The Dating Code™ comes with lifetime access.
So you can take as long as you need to complete it and can revisit it any time.
Will I be able to ask the course instructors questions?
Yes. You can do so in student forum discussions. Either Nick or Steve, or a trusted associate, will be on-hand to answer questions. However, the course is pretty comprehensive, and we invite you to refer to the course materials in the first instance. Alternatively, if you'd like to discuss one-to-one coaching with Nick you can book a consultation here.
Which psychotherapists have reviewed and approved this course?
One of them is Frances Masters, a female psychotherapist in practice for 20+ years who has been accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has over 30,000 hours professional experience. Here is what she said about The Dating Code:
"In a fast changing world that can feel bewildering for many of us, men in particular are facing increasing challenges in navigating the landscape that is the world of dating.
The rules have changed.
What’s acceptable? What’s unacceptable? What’s downright dangerous?
As a practising BACP accredited psychotherapist, I am noticing increased levels of anxiety amongst younger male clients in particular. They want to know what the new 'rules' are.
Tired of the online dating scene, many are now returning to a real-world experience and are asking the question 'just how do you approach a woman for a date?'
I see this science-based training by Nick Hatter and Steve Hopper as the antidote to some of the toxic, personality-led 'programmes' currently out there.
The Dating Code is a light-hearted approach based on some serious psychology about inter-personal relationships.
The Dating Code gives lots of practical advice and plenty of much-needed guidance about what to do, what to say and how to respond."
Does this course teach 'pickup artistry' ?
No, this is a dating course. That means we teach techniques for maximising dating opportunities and success.
Pickup artistry (PUA) is more about manipulating women to sleep with you using unethical or dark psychological tactics, and we absolutely do not condone or recommend such methods as ethical coaches.
While there may be a small amount of useful information for straight men in the PUA world and 'Red Pill' community, much of it is toxic and harmful to both men and women, and often employs what we call 'dark psychology' which is unethical. We also do not agree with the sole mission of PUA and 'Red Pill' which seems to revolve around sexual conquests and turning women into trophies.

Which dating app was Nick a CEO of?
FDBK® - for around two years. During this time, Nick invested about £17,000 surveying men and women and gaining some deep insights into the challenges of modern dating.
FDBK® was the next generation of dating apps and had a number of innovative features like anti-ghosting, anti-catfishing, AI coaching, peer verification, and more. It ended up selling thousands of pounds in subscriptions ahead of its launch.
Sadly, Nick had to shut the app down due to difficulties in raising funding for the project (note: a lot of venture capitalists and angel investors do not like funding dating apps due to low user retention and high user churn).
FDBK did get an honourable mention on Global Dating Insights news.
