What is OkCupid Dating: Date Singles?

Data-Driven Matchmaking

OkCupid stands out in the crowded dating app market by focusing heavily on data. When you sign up, you don't just upload a photo and start swiping. The app asks you a series of questions—ranging from your stance on climate change to your favorite movie genres.

The Compatibility Percentage

The answers you provide, along with how you want your ideal match to answer them, are fed into an algorithm. This generates a 'Compatibility Percentage' with every other user. A 99% match usually indicates highly aligned values and lifestyles, making it easier to find a serious relationship.

Inclusive and Diverse

OkCupid is widely praised for its inclusivity. It offers over 20 sexual orientations and 22 gender identities, allowing users to express themselves authentically and find exactly who they are looking for.

Premium Tiers

While the basic features and messaging are free, OkCupid offers 'Basic' and 'Premium' subscriptions. These allow you to see exactly who liked you, browse invisibly, and avoid advertisements.

  • Messaging

  • Location-Based

OkCupid Dating: Date Singles — FAQ

How does OkCupid work?
OkCupid recommends profiles in Discover and uses profile preferences plus answers to compatibility questions to calculate a Match Percentage. You can send a Like and add an Intro to a profile. If the other person Likes you back, you form a Match and can continue the conversation. No percentage or method guarantees compatibility.
Is OkCupid free to use and message?
Yes. OkCupid says free members can send and receive Likes and Intros, view Matches, and chat with their Matches. Free accounts have limits, including a restricted number of daily Likes and seeing incoming Likes differently. Optional subscriptions and individual purchases add features, but payment is not required for mutual Matches to chat.
How many Likes can I send on OkCupid per day?
OkCupid's current help page says free members receive a limited number of Likes per day but does not promise one fixed worldwide number. Limits may be tested or vary by account. Paid plans can include unlimited Likes; check the current plan screen rather than relying on an old number from a review or forum.
Does OkCupid have Read Receipts?
Yes, but Read Receipts are not a standard free feature. OkCupid lists them as an individual paid purchase for a selected conversation or in bundles, while Premium Plus currently includes unlimited Read Receipts. Plans and availability can change, so review the purchase screen before paying.
What is an Intro on OkCupid?
An Intro is a first message attached to a Like before a mutual Match. You can write one by commenting on a specific part of the person's profile. The recipient can review it and decide whether to Like you back; after a mutual Match, both people can exchange messages normally. Sending an Intro does not guarantee it will be accepted or answered.
Does OkCupid verify every profile?
No. OkCupid requires SMS verification for account access, but that confirms control of a phone number rather than a person's identity. Optional Photo Verification uses a video selfie, a liveness check, and facial comparison with profile photos. A badge can add context but does not guarantee identity, intentions, compatibility, or safety.
Is OkCupid safe to use?
OkCupid provides reporting, blocking, moderation, Photo Verification, and Safe Message Filters, but no dating service can guarantee another person's identity or behavior. Never send money, financial details, passwords, or SMS codes. Keep early conversations in the app, meet in a populated public place, and arrange your own transportation.
What is the difference between OkCupid Premium and Premium Plus?
OkCupid Premium includes benefits such as seeing everyone who Likes you, viewing more public question answers, and weekly SuperLikes. Premium Plus adds Priority Likes, unlimited Read Receipts, more weekly SuperLikes, and a monthly boost token. OkCupid Basic is no longer sold to new buyers. Benefits and prices may vary, so check the live offer.
What does Incognito Mode do on OkCupid?
Incognito Mode hides your active profile from everyone you have not Liked or messaged. You can switch it on and off and block or unmatch someone to remove their access. It is a separate paid subscription, not an included part of OkCupid Premium or Premium Plus, and two Incognito members cannot discover each other unless one becomes visible.
How do I delete or disable my OkCupid account?
In OkCupid settings, open the Need a Break or Disable account option and follow the prompts to disable or permanently delete the profile. Disabling hides the profile and allows a return; deletion is permanent. Uninstalling the app does neither. Apple and Google Play subscriptions must be canceled separately through the relevant store.
