EliteSingles

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

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 members’ answers enables EliteSingles to draft a personality profile, which is later on 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.
