SITE FUNCTIONALITY

By scrolling down the page other profiles will gradually appear. You can choose to view more details of a profile that has particularly impressed you by clicking on the preview, giving you access to the user's personal page.

Match section

In the "Match" section you will be offered photos of users near you and be given the opportunity to express your preferences based on the initial impact of the photo. You will be able to choose whether to put a like by clicking on the heart icon and notifying your interest to the user, or clicking on the "x" icon, preventing that profile from being replayed in the future. If you wish to contact that user right away, just click on the messaging icon.

How do you get a match?
A match is a mutual like between two users. If you express a preference about a user, and that user expresses a preference about you, you will see in the notifications section the mutual match and compatibility of your profiles.

How can I change user search criteria to find profiles that are more akin to me?
You can decide to fine-tune your profile search by clicking on the search settings on both the "Radar" and "Match" pages. You can change for example the age range, area etc.

Chat

How do I send a chat message to a user?
You can contact a user by sending him/her a message via different Site pages.

If you receive a new message you will see a red dot on the chat icon.

How many messages can I send?
The number of messages you can send depends on your subscription type. If you have a Free profile, you have a limited number of messages available, which you can increase at any time by subscribing to one of the offers presented to you.
If you have purchased a subscription, the number of messages you can send depends on the number of available credits, which may vary based on the type of subscription selected. At any time, you can increase the number of available credits by purchasing additional packages.
If you have purchased credit-only packages, the number of messages you can send depends on the type of package selected. All prices and the corresponding credit amounts can be found on the page shown during the purchase process. We recommend carefully verifying that the amount is the one you desire before proceeding with the purchase.
You can check your available credits at the top of the website, indicated by the relevant icon or in your profile.

What are credits and how do they work?
Credits give you the chance to send more messages in the chat section, and thus to be more active. From the On-Demand Section it will be possible to view the different purchasable offers of packages of credits. If you decide to purchase an additional package of credits, the increase will be visible at the top of the site marked by the token icon. You can check your credit position from all Site pages. The corresponding number of credits will go down as they are consumed.

The gift credits received with the first daily log in will expire at the end of the day.

How long are my messages kept?
All messages are kept in your history. For technical reasons, however, and to make the chat smoother and more usable, after a certain number of days older messages may be historicised, especially in chats having a large number of messages. This is to allow better and more efficient chat use.

How can I view the profile of the user I'm chatting with?
To view the profile of a user you are chatting with, simply click on the username that appears in the chat window.

To delete chats, simply click on the "x" symbol next to the chat you wish to delete.

SECURE ONLINE MEETINGS

Advice on secure online meetings
We strive to make online dating a fun experience for all our members. We strive to provide a high level of privacy and security on our website. Although you can trust the overwhelming majority of people, you must always be aware of the possible online presence of fraudsters, liars and scammers. There have been cases where online dating services have been used for improper purposes. For example, some users sign up for the Site, but they are not actually looking for partners. They use your personal data to send unwanted advertising or ask for money (actions known as "scams" or fraud). To protect you from unwanted contacts, we have compiled a list of suggestions to help you stay safe.
Trust your instinct. If at any time you feel insecure or uncomfortable, for your safety and protection, keep your distance. Beware of those who seem too good or perfect to be true. Start communicating with other users exclusively through this dating site, pay attention to any strange behaviour or inconsistencies in their profile, conversations or actions. The person on the other end may not be who or what he/she claims to be.
Do not provide personal information too soon. Never provide your first name, surname, home address, phone number or other sensitive personal information if you do not know who you are dealing with. This Site works using a chat system in which none of your personal information online will be made available to other members. Use only our internal messaging system; take your time to get to know people better and develop a relationship of trust.
Be careful. Some take advantage of people looking for fun by sending them a friend request and trying to get information through illegal advertising or redirecting them to other paid sites, or making requests for credit card data or cash.


Sharing your computer with other people
Make sure no one else can access your personal e-mail messages and obtain access data to our Sites. This is the only way your profile could be read by other people. If you use a public computer, we strongly advise you to follow these rules:
Exit our site (click on "Leave") and any mail account or provider before leaving the workplace or public computer. Use "Incognito" mode (private browsing). While browsing incognito, the web pages you open and the files you download will not be recorded in the browsing and download histories. After closing all the incognito windows you have opened, all cookies will be deleted. You can use the following keyboard shortcuts to access the browser's "Incognito" mode:

Mozilla Firefox - Ctrl + Shift + P
Opera - Ctrl + Shift + N
Google Chrome - Ctrl + Shift + N
Remember that browsing history and information about your account are stored in browser cookies. We recommend you delete all cookies after browsing the site.

TIPS FOR SUCCESSFUL MEETINGS

How to successfully meet other singles
There is no secret to succeeding with online dating: you just have to be yourself, be active, send likes to members you like, send messages and chat with like-minded people. We advise you to add new photographs regularly, update your profile details frequently, use instant messaging features, access the site as often as possible and try to get to know as many members as possible. The most important thing is to be honest, positive and patient in everything you do on the site.
