For a monthly or annual fee, there are many dating apps and sites that will give you access to their pool of suitors
TORONTO — Jennifer Lopez might have sung "Love Don't Cost a Thing" more than 20 years ago, but these days, it’s not uncommon to drop some cash in the hunt for a partner.
"Do you have a good profile? Do you have good photos? If no, I don't know why you are already joining the membership." The success of services that only accept paid users often hinges on the quantity and quality of daters it attracts. "If you're putting money into anything, whether it's a dating app or working with an expert, I think you are more intentional and you're going to take it more seriously," said Tebb.
The payment gave the Vancouver journalist access to Hinge's preference filters, which narrow down potential matches based on criteria such as their religion, ethnicity, education and height.Her roommate insisted she was too picky, so she dropped some deal-breakers like having an undergraduate and a master's degree.
Before plunking down cash on paid dating offerings, she recommends people look closely at what their profile is projecting and ask friends or a dating coach how they can spruce it up.
