Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about how this site works, how it is funded, and why so many cells in our comparison table are empty.
Why are so many fields marked not verified
Because we have not checked them. Status is checked for all sixteen platforms we track. Operator is confirmed for two. Pricing and account deletion are confirmed for none, because both require a paid account and a controlled test rather than reading a marketing page.
An empty cell is a statement about us, not about the platform. We would rather show one than guess.
Why is there no score out of five
A score implies a measurement, and ours would currently be built on uptime checks and ownership research. That is real work and it is not what anyone means by a rating. If we publish scores later, the rubric goes on the method page before the first score appears.
How do you make money
Some links to dating platforms pay us a commission if you sign up through them. Those links are marked. No platform pays for placement or for a better description, and none sees a page before it is published.
Why do you keep reviews of platforms that have closed
Three reasons. Someone searching for a closed platform usually wants to know what happened, whether they are still being billed, or where to go instead, and deleting the page answers none of those. It also creates a record of operators who shut down without telling users.
Do you test the platforms yourself
Not yet, and we do not claim to. Every page states which facts we established and how. When hands-on testing starts, the pages will say what was tested, on what date, and by what method.
Can a platform get a review changed
It can submit a correction with evidence, on the same footing as anyone else. Corrections to verified facts are recorded in the Platform Tracker so the change stays visible rather than being edited away.
