Elite Singles Review – Find Chemistry That Lasts

Visit Elite Singles

 

Elite Singles is an online dating agency that has operated in over 25 countries since 2009 and is based in Berlin. This site is supported by the Spark Networks Service GmbH company and offers a partnership-related or compatible method.

So, in short, they promise to find a romantic partner for you based on an algorithm.

How does it work?

In some countries, you must be 16 years old (United States) to use this platform; in others, you must be at least 18. In addition, you must register and take a personality test called “the five big factors,” where variables are measured as openness to new experiences, responsibility, extraversion, friendliness or kindness, and emotional stability.

This test is free of charge; from there, you will create a profile that you can administer independently. Once this first part is completed, Elite Singles’ algorithms will present you with a personalized list of possible users compatible with your profile and expectations.

On the other hand, the Elite Singles team is in charge of checking the reliability of the people who subscribe to their site. However, they make some suggestions that you should consider to avoid fraud and catfishing. Among those recommendations are the following:

  • Verify the information that seems unrealistic
  • Be careful with your personal information
  • Do not accept financial demands
  • Do not let other users pressure you

In giving your consent to attend a first personal appointment, you should consider avoiding drinking too much alcohol, taking care of your belongings, and always informing yourself where you will be. Several apps could help you with these security measures.

How much does it cost?

Actually, on their site, the cost of subscriptions is not explicit. However, what we do find is that there are two types.

A free subscription or basic profile that includes the following functions is available:

  • Consult the results of the test
  • Receive suggestions from partners
  • Send smiles, and we like you
  • Upload photos.

As for the premium subscription, it includes the following functions:

  • A more extensive version of the test results
  • You get to be suggested to other premium users more frequently
  • You will be able to see who has visited your profile
  • Send, and receive a limited number of messages
  • You will have access to all the photos of your suggested partner
  • You will be presented with at least 20 additional profiles each day
  • And you will have access from the IOS or Android application.

Credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), debit cards, checks, and PayPal have accepted payment methods. Please note that you should review the payment methods in each region. The cost of the premium subscription will depend on the duration of the contract you choose. It is paid in a single payment of at least six months. If you want to cancel your subscription application, this must be considered, as the refund is a bit complex.

Is it reliable?

The company is verifiable, has several years in the market, has at least 310,000 monthly subscriptions, and is available in 25 countries. On the other hand, users reflect that the algorithms used sometimes do not match their expectations, so the poor response time for customer service can take up to more than a week to clarify the doubts and/or requests made by users.

On the other hand, there is no transparency regarding the price of the paid membership, which is not a good sign.

Pros

  • More and more couples are getting to know each other and making their first approach through the internet.
  • You can make new friends from the comfort of your home.
  • Elite Singles platform has a matchmaking-based algorithm that seems to be realistic.

Cons

  • The subscription is charged in a single payment and not monthly.
  • The payment has already been debited, even if you wish to cancel your subscription.
  • The technical support service is faulty.
  • The recommendations of possible appointments or contacts are often not in your city.

Verdict

The application is not very good. Most people complain about paying for additional services not stipulated when hiring the service. On the other hand, users also comment that it has a high cost for the advantages they offer and otherwise do not comply.

We suggest you always read the terms and conditions when contracting the service so you will have a detailed view of what to expect. On the other hand, giving your credit card information to sites with low transparency is not advisable.
