    MatureDates Review

    User Rating 3 / 5
    MatureDates logolnkr.com/55us64x

    Lately I've been finding myself connecting better with people who are more mature. That kind of confidence is extremely attractive! MatureDates is a cougar dating site for 18+ to connect with singles over 30 and promises that 61% of members hook up within the first week!

    What is MatureDates & who is it best for?

    MatureDates is a mature dating site from The Perfect Match LTD in Bulgaria, seeking to connect younger members with older (30+) singles. Options include men looking for men, men for women, women for men, and women for women!

    Best for: People 18+ looking to date 30+ and those looking for fun hookups.

    How Does MatureDates work?

    Pretty simple. Look at your main feed for popular and new members, browse with quick search or advanced filters, then like profiles, send messages, or icebreakers. Note: the cams just go to an external site — not a native MatureDates feature! 😑

    Is MatureDates legit?

    Email verification required, profile verification and photo approval process. I couldn't find a way to report profiles though, which was a red flag.

    The tl;dr on MatureDates.com

    ✅Most mature users over 30. ✅Free to register. ✅Sign up under 10 minutes. ✅Photo and profile verification. ✅Focused on hookups and casual dating. ⛔No mobile app. ⛔Can't report profiles.

    Is there a MatureDates app?

    No mobile app, but there's a mobile optimized site.

    Signup process

    Super easy! 2 steps: Choose what you're looking for (man/woman) and location. Then add age, nickname, email (or connect with Google). Click email verification link and you're on the main feed!

    Main feed & interface

    Clean and intuitive with sidebar (search, messages, visits, likes, favorites), quick searches, popular members, new members, VIP members, and a big blue "buy credits" button.

    Profiles

    Simple profiles with username, marital status, DOB, location, "about me" (500 chars), pics, and preferences including date types (chats, one night stands, dinner dates) and partner character traits.

    Search capabilities

    Both basic and advanced search for free! Filter by photo, gender, distance, marital status, hair color, ethnicity, physique, height, weight, "open to" options, preferences, and character.

    Free vs. paid subscriptions

    Free: Basic and advanced search, see popular/new members, check out all profiles, create/edit profile.

    Premium ($9.99-$19.98/month): 5 free icebreakers daily, rank high in searches, popularity badge. BUT doesn't allow sending messages — need credits!

    Credit packages: 150 credits/$29, 300/$49, 750/$99, 2500/$299.

    What sets MatureDates apart?

    • Date Guarantee: No date within 6 months? Get a refund on purchases!
    • Icebreakers: Start conversations without individual messaging.
    • Badges: Shows others you're a paying member.

    Final thoughts

    MatureDates got me interested in dating outside my age range. However, I didn't like that I couldn't send messages without credits after paying for Premium, and how they kept showing me men despite my preferences being for women. The concept is great but the execution needs work.
