Match Ireland⭐️Review, Prices, Experiences 2023

What is Match.com?

Match was founded in 1995 in the USA and is one of the oldest providers in online dating. Through constant mergers with other providers, match.com has become the largest dating  family in the world with almost 22 million members.

Currently, Match has around 50,000 active members in Ireland.

Its success must have something to do with:

Start Something Real

Match is something for the average wallet. That's why you'll find a wide audience from all professions.

Match success in numbers

You probably know someone who is active on Match or has already found a partner there. The large number of members and the diverse flirting possibilities result in a remarkable success rate:

• 59% of members have dates
• About 25% fall in love on Match

The Match matching principle

...does not exist in the classical sense. Match is rather built for singles to actively search on this dating site with its many "advertisements". 

At Match you will meet very active and flirtatious singles. From casual contacts to friendships to relationships, everything is possible here.

You must find your dream partner yourself somehow... Some find this annoying and prefer to choose a target-oriented dating agency. Others appreciate exactly this tingling sensation and the uncertainty of what will become of the next date.

Match offers its members different approaches and methods to find the perfect partner:

• Match users constantly receive new profile suggestions. The system selects these suggestions for you based on the data from your profile and the answers to the questions during registration. Therefore, the suggested candidates already match you very well in terms of personal interests and wishes.
• Classic partner search: You can use search filters to narrow down partner suggestions. In the settings, enter your desired age, place of residence and other details that are important to you.
• Offline dating: Meet potential partners at an event organized by Match. The events take place in larger cities on all kinds of topics.

Is Match serious? Fake profiles or real singles?

There are very few fakes at Match because the provider has taken effective measures:

• Every new photo and every profile change is checked within 15 minutes. This is followed by approval or blocking.
• A photo AI is used that automatically compares profile photos with pictures from photo databases or from celebrities. 
• There is a team that preventively detects scammers and romance scammers and removes their profiles.

Match.com is the most famous dating site worldwide.

How Match.com.ie works

Four steps to your dream partner on Match:

Registering with Match

Registering with ie.Match.com is very simple. You go through a few short questions about yourself and enter your email address and password.

During the registration process, the Match coach will already ask you a few questions. The answers will later be incorporated into your profile.

You can prepare yourself for these questions:

The Match login for members

If you already have an account, you can sign up directly on the Match website by clicking the login button in the top right corner of the homepage.

The Match personality test

Match does not rely on the matching principle like other dating agencies. Therefore, there is no actual personality test at Match. 

You will only be asked some questions about yourself during the registration process. These include facts such as height, which language you speak, ethnicity, education level, if you smoke, if you have children, and if you want children one day.

The most important thing is that you then complete your profile. This is the only way you will receive contact suggestions that are a reasonable match for you.

Advantages & Disadvantages

Who is Match.com suitable for?

Match is for all users who simply want to try out sophisticated online dating. The focus is clearly on flirting. If you really want to fall in love or are looking for a non-binding date, you have to find out for yourself...

Good for your purpose?	Good for your age group?
Life partner Flirt & Date Intimate encounters	18-25 years 25-50 years Over 50 years

In contrast to other well-known dating sites, Match does not focus on matchmaking with partner suggestions. What is needed here is your own initiative.

You get access to a huge database of profiles that you can browse for hours.

With Match, you can see the photos of all the other singles directly and clearly. While this makes the selection large, it does not necessarily make the search for your dream partner any easier

Match is not suitable for you if you

Age structure of members

GBasically, Match shows a broad and relatively even distribution of members across all age groups up to the mid-50s.

The average age for men is 38, for women just under 40. All singles over the age of 18 are welcome on this platform.

With 61%, there is a surplus of men on Match. The older the members, the more women are active on the dating site.

Educational level of the members

At Match you will find singles from all professions and walks of life. There really is something for everyone here.

The big difference to the many free dating sites, however, is the higher level among the users.

The reason for this is that the Match editors expect a certain standard in the profiles. In addition, Match charges a fee as soon as you want to actively participate in flirting.

Your Match profile

Most Match singles have invested time and effort into their profile, providing detailed information and uploading beautiful photos. You can also use the many options to catch the eye of other Match users.

The following options are available for you to personalize your profile:

• My pictures - your profile photo and up to 8 additional photos 
• My voice - Describe your personality using your voice 
• My personal ad - tell a little about yourself

• I am - Main information such as height, education, smoking habits, children, want to have children. Other information such as marital status, gender identity, I think marriage is…, eyes, weight, hair colour, hair length, nationality, I live…, religion, occupation, sports, practicing religion, diet, personality, romance, pets, My best feature, interests, entertainment, my favourite films, my taste in music, my style, my little imperfection.
• I'm looking for - this is what your dream partner should look like: In addition to the information you have already provided in the registration process regarding height, age, etc., you have a few options here to narrow down your search a bit. You can specify here what is important to you: Is it looks such as hair colour or eyes, or character traits? Perhaps you are also looking for someone who shares your hobbies and interests? Then you can specify that right here. 

How to get in touch

At Match, you have a number of ways to contact other members:

Match voice and video call

Similar to other dating platforms, the video date function is used diligently by match users.

It is especially helpful for shy singles to first get an impression of the other person. 

If this is too fast for you, you can also arrange a voice call and talk to your flirt on the phone.

You can activate the function to start a voice call or a video in your profile.

The Match app for mobile flirting on the go

With the Match dating app, you can be flexible in your partner search and never miss any interesting contacts.

Simply download the Match app free of charge from the Apple App Store for iPhone or the Google Play Store for Android.

These functions are available:

Cool additional functions with Match

We find these functions very interesting: 

• Photo Boosts: This feature pushes your profile to the front of other singles. This means that you will be displayed much more frequently to Match users who matchyou. This gives you more attention and contact opportunities. We have listed the costs below.
• Love Notes: Your messages get bumped to the top.
• Incognito Mode: If the hustle and bustle on Match becomes too much for you, you can make yourself invisible with this function. You can visit profiles without the person noticing and you will not appear in the search results. Unfortunately, incognito mode is also subject to a charge.

Match Charter of commitment

Match puts a lot of emphasis on making you feel comfortable and enjoy the best dating experience possible. 

The golden rule at Match is: only say, show or do online what you would say, show or do in real life.

There are also the following four Match behavioural principles:
