Independence
We decide what to review and how to rate it. Nobody can buy a rating or positive coverage.
How we make money
We earn commissions from some sites when readers sign up through our links, and we show advertising. Whether a site pays us has no effect on its rating or its place in a ranking, and the footer of every page carries this disclosure.
What we cover
We cover popular and niche dating sites and apps for adults. Before we add a brand, we confirm it is live through its own help center or app store listing. When a service closes or changes owner, we say so on the page or remove it.
Accuracy
We check facts against the sites themselves and official sources. Prices are labelled as indicative with the date we checked them, because they vary by location and change often. If we can’t confirm something, we say that on the page rather than guess. How we test dating sites explains the process and the five areas we score.
Sources and research
We link to the sources behind specific claims wherever we can. We cite a study only when its subject and sample match what we’re saying.
Updates
Brand pages show the date we last checked them, and we re-check key details regularly. We update a page when a service changes its prices, features or rules.
Corrections
If you spot an error, contact us and we will review and correct it promptly.
Use of AI
We may use AI tools to help draft or structure content. Every article is reviewed, edited and fact-checked by a person before publishing.
Sensitive topics
Safety content is general guidance, not legal advice. If you are in danger, contact local emergency services.
