Member Structure
DateMatch welcomes all types of people. Still, most of the members are within the 25 - 34 age range, and most of the members are men. And although this is not one of the senior dating sites for mature singles, you'll still find some senior singles looking for partners through the platform. For example, you may find a profile of a 60-year-old man looking for a 30-year old lady for hangouts and fun. The website has around 350 000 members worldwide and 100,000 members from the United States.
DateMatch App
Research for this review found out that DateMatch does not have a mobile app. If you want to use your smartphone to access the website, that's possible because it is mobile responsive. However, not all desktop features are available on the mobile version of DateMatch. Important features such as messaging are available on the mobile site.
One of the requirements to access features on the mobile site is a java plug-in. You can check if your phone has a java plug-in through settings. Overall, the mobile version of DateMatch is simple and is easy to use.

Besides, all data on DateMatch is sent through an SSL connection. Your messages will, therefore, not be intercepted by anyone. The website has a privacy policy, and the link is available at the bottom of all pages. You're encouraged to be cautious of profiles that may appear suspicious on the platform. Going through a member's profile will help you determine whether it's genuine or fake.
Our Experience
Sign up Process
Our preparation for this review included actual signing up with DateMatch.com to experience the whole registration and profile creation process. Creating an account was easy and fast. You'll provide information about your gender, birthday, location, and the gender of the person you're looking for. You'll then receive a confirmation email message and click the link to verify the email address.
Profile Creation
Creating your profile on DateMatch is also easy. You can either create a basic profile or an advanced profile. A basic profile only has your name, gender, location, age, a brief description of you and your age. The advanced profile lets you tell members more about yourself. The administrators will check out your profile before approving it. Advanced profiles on the website are detailed enough for you to make a decision about the members.
Searching and Matchmaking
The advanced search filters are the best and quickest way to find a compatible match on DateMatch. Once you access a profile of your interest, you can check out their photos as well as personal information and decide whether to make contact or not.
Contacting with Other Members
You can make contact with other users on DateMatch through email, making comments on their photos, creating a chatroom, flirting and sending winks, video chat, or through instant messenger. You can also build your buddy network to make it easier to communicate with the members in your buddy list. DateMatch.com only allows users to interact with verified members. Use the 'who's online' feature to see who is online and start chatting with them.
Experts Conclusion
I like using DateMatch.com because of the free environment. Being both a social network and dating site, users can freely express themselves. In addition, this website is packed with nice features that make online dating fun. Features like video chats ensure that there's never a dull day for you on DateMatch.
