Match.com Review 2021

Function or how Match.com works?

Sometimes you might receive messages from people you don’t want to interact with. Or, you might get more invitations than you can handle. If this is the case, you have the option to block other users. This is especially useful if someone is behaving inappropriately, or not following the site’s code of conduct. Once you engage the “block user” feature, you will no longer see or hear from that person. It is also possible to report these people to the site moderators.

The ability to filter users by region is useful if you are looking for a partner in your area and you are not interested in commuting or having a long-distance relationship.

Online dating could not exist without chat and messaging. Match gives users the ability to send and accept chat invitations. Chat also contains other communication features for you to express yourself (these include emojis, virtual gifts, etc.).

An instant messenger feature is available on the site for communication with potential matches.

The messenger feature allows you to see who is currently online

In the messenger feature, you can switch your status freely between “online” and “offline” if you don’t want to be disturbed.

It’s no secret that text messaging can make people impatient. You might be waiting for a response––not knowing how long it’s been since your match read your last message. Therefore, Match has a feature that allows you to see when a response is being composed.

Getting noticed is always a challenge. Therefore, Match offers a paid feature that will give you priority status on the site. You will be given a higher listing and be able to see others with the same feature. This is a great way to be more visible and increase your chances of matching.

Basic searches are not available. Also, more specialized searches based on filters (gender, age, photo, users online now) are not available.

Advantages

You can block selected users, if you wish. They will not be able to contact you.

Local search filters allow users to find people in their immediate location.

You can invite users, or join a private chat.

Instant messenger is available. This is the best way for users to communicate with one another.

If you wish, you can show your “online” status if you want people to see that you’re available.

Messenger allows you to change your status to “offline” (if you don’t want people to see that you are online).

Messenger also has a graphic that allows you to see when someone is writing to you.

You can sign up with your Facebook account.

Moderators will manually verify photos to approve the creation of your profile. This is an added security feature that disables people from creating fake accounts, or sharing explicit images.

You can download the application to your mobile or tablet with iOS.

Android offers an application that can be downloaded from the Google Play store.

Disadvantages

Registration - How to register to Match.com?

Applications and Mobile Versions

Privacy and anonymity

Dating sites are generally divided into public and private. For public dating, an overview of all user accounts is accessible to anyone. In contrast, private dating offers a higher level of privacy and anonymity, as your profile is only accessible to registered dating members (no one else can see your profile).

User profiles are visible to anyone not registered with the service. Therefore, anyone could potentially see your profile, or information. This means users should take caution with what kind of information they share on the platform.

Prevention of false profiles and fraud

Email confirmation is not necessary for Match. Because verification is a common tool for preventing the creation of fraudulent profiles, it is possible that you may encounter bots, or fake accounts while using the service. Be wary of other users that seem suspicious, and be careful about what information you share.

All photos and images that users upload to profiles are subject to a manual approval process (conducted by moderators and employees). This service is designed to filter out unauthorized photos (these can be photos of celebrities, animated characters, explicit content, or targeted advertising).

Terms and Conditions (TOS)

This dating site has its Terms accessible (you will find a link to them on the main page). We recommend that you read them before registering. Although the text can be lengthy, it is important to familiarize yourself with it.

Membership Cancellation - How do I cancel a paid account at Match.com?

Cancellations can be done online. If you have decided to purchase a paid membership, it is worth knowing how to cancel it. Because payments are automatically deducted from your account and your membership is renewed after the paid period, resolve the cancellation as soon as you decide you no longer need it.

Canceling Your Account - How do I delete my account on Match.com?

You can cancel your profile on Match for free. This can be done online. Or, if you wish, you can contact user support, which will advise you on how to delete your account.

When you cancel your account, you also have the option to unsubscribe from the mailing list, so you will not receive any unsolicited emails or news from Match.
