Introduction
MeetMyAge.com is advertised as a platform where users can chat and discover single people nearby. By becoming a member, users are promised the ability to interact with singles who are nearby as well as those in distant geographic regions. Users are subjected to a personality assessment during registration, allowing the operator to obtain useful information that can help them connect you with members that match your interests.
Users can read incoming messages, send limited responses, and like member profiles with a free account. Users who want to access all the available features must subscribe to a paid membership. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled. Although the operator claims that the site was created to connect individuals 40 years or older, my review of the Terms and Conditions established that the site contains fake profiles managed by chat moderators.

Usability and design
First impression
The site has an attractive and modern design. The operator has put a lot of effort into staying informative. On the landing page, there is a list of advantages users can expect to benefit from by using the site. Common user concerns are also addressed in detail on the landing page and FAQ page.
There are also links to the Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions page. However, the operator is not transparent regarding the presence of fictitious profiles. There is no disclaimer on the landing page. Only users who care to read the Terms and Conditions will learn about these profiles.
Navigation
The platform’s landing page contains the option to register or sign in. Users can create a MeetMyAge.com login by providing their email and password. Those visiting the site for the first time must register and give the information required. Once on the platform, users can navigate and view all the available features. Users can access the member area, search profiles, view members, contact support, upgrade membership, and carry out whatever actions are permitted. I had a smooth experience using the site, and there were no lags when switching from one feature to the next.
Registration process
Those registering on the site have to confirm their gender and sex preference. You can choose whether to register with your Facebook or Google account, or use your email instead. Next, you must provide your name, date of birth, email, and password. New users are required to upload a profile photo to gain more attention. Users also have to confirm their location and describe themselves. Once all these details are provided, they can access their account and scroll through the various features. There is no identity verification, making registration for an account using fake information easy.
General Terms and Conditions
The company employs chat moderators to manage fictitious profiles. These moderators engage real users and entice them to subscribe to a membership for unlimited chats. There is no disclaimer on the landing page, and it is only when users review the Terms and Conditions that they discover the site contains “staff profiles.”
Excerpt from the GTC
Functions and tools
Main functions
“Discover,” “Activity,” “Messages,” and “Profile” are the main features of this platform. The “Discover” feature is the equivalent of a member area and contains member profiles. Users can search profiles using the available filters, including age, location, physical attributes, hobbies, and education level. The “Activity” feature contains notifications regarding your activity on the site. Profiles that you like, or that like you, appear in this section. The “Messages” feature contains the messages sent to you by other member profiles. Members can edit their own information in the “Profiles” feature and make subscriptions.
Communication tools
“Messages” is the primary communication tool available on this site. You can send messages to profiles that have liked you back after you have sent them a like. To send a message when you don’t have a mutual like, you have to send a chat request. A chat request can be sent by clicking the profile and tapping the “chat request” button located next to the “heart” icon used to send likes. Icebreakers are available for members who find it difficult to start a conversation. Users can also send photos using the messages feature.
Special features
A feature known as “Top Profile” allows members to boost their profiles and help them become more visible. There is the option to boost your profile for 30 minutes and get more visits, likes, and messages. Users can also boost their profiles for 3 hours for an extended period of attention. You can access the “Top profile” feature by visiting your account profile.
Security and data protection
Privacy policy
The operator of this platform collects data provided in the users’ profile, including their date of birth, name, and email address. There are cookies that record data regarding user behavior to enhance user experience. Moreover, the operator collects browser and device data and transaction and usage data. Information collected may be shared with third parties contracted to provide services or perform business services on the company’s behalf. Information can also be shared with law enforcement agencies and third parties as part of a merger or acquisition.
Security measures
According to the platform’s Terms and Conditions, the operator makes an effort to ensure there is no unauthorized interception of data. However, users are advised to note that despite encryption of data being transferred, the operator cannot guarantee that the data may not be possibly read or intercepted by unauthorized parties. The operator also notes that users should maintain confidentiality of their username and password and are responsible for all activities of their account.

Target group analysis and matching quality
Demography
According to the information on the landing page, the site can be used by adult single individuals looking to find matches and build meaningful relationships. The site also allows users to find friends and chat with interesting people. The operator also acknowledges that the site was mainly designed for people who are 40 years or older and looking to meet new people.
Although younger members can use the platform, the chances of finding people with shared interests and mindsets are slimmer. However, through a review of the platform, I established that it contains fake profiles. It is more suitable as a digital chat service where users chat for entertainment.
Matchmaking algorithm
When you “Like” a profile and that profile likes you back, you get matched and have the chance to chat. Matching this way is one of the ways to unlock the chat option. The other way is to send a chat request. The operator of this platform also analyzes information about users and their potential soulmates and provides this information to them to help determine their romantic compatibility.
Costs and price-performance ratio
Free vs. paid functions
Registering for an account is completely free. You can also search, watch, and visit the profile of other members without paying a dime. Users are also not charged for likes and matches but can only get three matches a day. It is also possible to read and respond to up to 10 incoming messages per day. Paid membership allows users unlimited access to these services.
Users can send messages, like profiles, and access unique features like the “Top profile” option to boot your profile. It costs 95 credits to boost a profile for 30 minutes and 495 credits to boost a credit for 3 hours. Only paying members can access the astro compatibility and romantic compatibility options. To send chat requests and virtual gifts also cost credits.
Price structure
Users who want access to paid features are required to subscribe to a membership that automatically renews at the end of the period unless the user cancels. Users can cancel their subscription by accessing the settings option found in the “Profiles” feature. The following subscription plans are available:
Credit packages are primarily used to top up services like chat requests, romantic and astrological compatibility checks, and virtual gifts. To access these features, you’ll need to purchase credits, which can be paid for using PayPal, Google Pay, or a credit card. There’s no designated primary payment method, so you can choose whichever is most convenient to you.

Conclusion and recommendations
MeetMyAge.com is advertised as a site where older singles can chat and connect with like-minded individuals. The operator claims the site suits individuals seeking long-term relationships and people searching for friendships. Users must subscribe to one of the available plans to access unlimited features. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled. Users must also purchase credits to access additional paid features like chat requests.
Individuals can still create an account without a paid membership and send a few messages and likes. I did not find a customer service number, but there is an email that users can use to contact support. Still, considering all the pros and cons and based on my experience using the platform, I would not recommend the site to individuals looking to date. The platform contains fictitious profiles managed by chat moderators. The site is not legit.

This site really disgusts me, they have ai bots and people backing up the bots creating the impression of interest, stringing people along and preying on their vulnerability and need to find someone to love. The easiest way to expose the bots is to ask them to meet up in person, most of the profiles claim they just want to chat and flirt online, meeting up is not something they do. Also asking for local landmarks seems to get them in a twist more often than not. They google things and give you some generic answers but cannot tell you anything which is not available online. I was given fictitious places and locations over and over. It is truly disgusting that they prey on vulnerable people like this.
meetmyage it's all a scam. I live in a smaller place and there are so many men it says on there live here also. all in my age range. I've lived here all my life and dont know any of them. start chatting asking one if them where abouts he lived. The address he said wasn't even a address where theres housing its apart of town. businesses are there only. another guy says he lives in the heart of quesnel. he obviously is not from here or ever been. theres not heart of quesnel. This place became a place where I swear they have dropped off bus loads of homeless people and theres drive by shootings and stabbings. and every day someone overdosed and every 3 to 4 week someone dies of overdose. There is no heart here. and every single time I message or respond to a message I get a response back in seconds on everyone. so obviously these people dont have real jobs they have nothing better to do that hope someone messages them so they stay on this site 24/7 just waiting . I dont think so. There are no real people on this site it's all fake profile fake pictures of someone else. It's just a money grabber. they all refuse to talk or text me at my own number. and they all say the same thing. oh I'm only gonna chat here, I'm comfortable here. How is this even legal that they are allowed to do this . theres enough bad reviews of them being scammers why aren't they shut down. i myself did not pay i tried the free trial and it's easy to figure out right away what this dateing site is all about. but some people dont clue in right away and pay the money to chat with these so called single people/robots. and it's not fair these people are being taken advantage of..
