EliteSingles is focused on serious dating. If you are looking for a long-term relationship there is no better place to try. Their user base, although smaller than others, is fresh and active and full of like-minded professional people looking to find that special someone with thousands finding love every month. Most of their users are university graduates, which sets their dating pool apart from others. EliteSingles operates in 20 countries and has been creating around 2000 new couples monthly.

Registration process

Once you create your basic profile with your username, email, and password, set aside a solid 30 minutes as Elite Singles has a questionnaire for you measuring 29 personality traits to find your best match. Don’t worry, it gives you the opportunity halfway through the questionnaire to skip and come back to it later.

Profile set-up

Prepare to bare your soul with a very detailed profile. Your personality quiz results are displayed on your profile, along with sections you’ll fill in to answer questions about what you’re looking for in a relationship, quirky interests, and lifestyle highlights.

Notification settings

Go into the ‘account settings’ tab where you can choose which notifications you’d like to receive, from newsletters to push notifications when you receive a new message or match.

Approved photos

Your photos must meet EliteSingle’s photo criteria with guidelines such as no nudity, no animations, no duplicates, etc.

Messaging

Interact with other members with likes, messages or select a pre-written question for your match to answer. Actual back and forth correspondence, however, is reserved for paid members only. Once you’ve signed up for a paid subscription, messaging is easy and straightforward.

Matches

Instead of browsing an infinite sea of profiles, you are given 3-7 matches per day, which you can file through to select the ones you’re actually interested in contacting.

EliteSingles bases its matchmaking process on personality traits analysis based on two factors: your profile, which is created after you finish the personality test, and your search preferences. Focusing on serious relationships seekers, this online dating site asks new members to fill in a detailed questionnaire. The data obtained from the member’s answers enable EliteSingles to draft a personality profile, which later on is completed and refined by the member’s activity on the site.

Hide your profile

You can activate or deactivate matching in order to hide your profile. This means that the main pool of members will not be able to see your profile, while your matches will still have access to you.

Delete matches

Once you delete a match, they can no longer contact you and your message history will be deleted.

Verification

There is no profile verification or photo verification on behalf of the members.

Fake profiles

EliteSingles promises to delete profiles that seem to provide false information or represent false identities. They use “SSL Encryption, Fraud Detection and Manual Profile Verification” to weed out the scammy profiles.

Report catfish

Members can report other member profiles which they believe to be fake. The EliteSingles team will review the profile and make a decision on whether or not to remove the profile.

Data collection

According to EliteSingles, your personal data is only collected and stored for the duration of your membership.
