Millionaire Match Review
Background
Because it has been around for over fifteen years, it has been able to gain a couple of million members total. The most recent count for total members on MillionaireMatch.com is pegged at about 2.9 million. There have been thousands of success stories over the years with wealthy couples finding love and relationships with each other because of this website. The strengths of this website have been documented by major media outlets such as The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, CNN, ABC, etc. which has helped to improve its’ reputation overall.
MillionaireMatch.com is not exclusively for the wealthy elite as it is also possible for non-millionaires to join as well just as long as you make over $200,000 for your annual income. However, if you’re a man or woman who is attractive physically with desirable personality traits, the website will likely allow you to join as long as you make it clear that you would like to find a partner that is successful financially and can verify their income. While not a sugar daddy / sugar baby website, MillionaireMatch does not discourage attractive users, men or women, from joining to see if they can date and have a relationship with someone who is very successful financially in return for their companionship.
MillionaireMatch.com’s millions of users come from all over the world including countries such as the United States, Germany, Canada, Japan, etc. Because of its’ international appeal, the website is now available in German and Japanese as well as English. The countries that are represented by its’ users on MillionaireMatch.com usually come from the wealthiest parts of the world. As MillionaireMatch continues to grow and expand, it is likely that other countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America which are becoming wealthier each and every year will also begin to have more of their citizens sign-up to find love and relationships with other wealthy singles in their countries.
Main Features
- Creating a profile
As with other online dating websites, when you sign-up and register on MillionaireMatch.com, you will be able to create a personal profile regardless if you’re a free or paid user.
When it comes to your profile, you have to include some general information about yourself such as your username, regular name, gender, age, race, height, weight, current location, and what you’re looking for on the website.
- Detailed information
In addition, depending on how much you would like to reveal to other users on the website, your profile can also include more personal information about your current salary, profession, religion, whether you’re single or in a relationship, and if you have any consistent smoking or drinking habits.
You may also put down if you would like to have children or not, more of your physical attributes such as hair and eye color along with your level of education (Bachelor’s, Master’s, high school degree, etc.)
- Income
The most important part of the profile since the website is known as MillionaireMatch is to ask each user what their annual income is. There are ten different income levels to choose from that go from less than $150,000 to more than $1 million dollars.
You can also choose not to disclose your income but you’ll have to give a good reason for not doing so.
- Profile essay
It’s also optional for the profile but MillionaireMatch will give you the chance to write about yourself in a paragraph or more in an essay on the profile page. In that paragraph about yourself, you’ll be able to include additional information such as the languages you speak, which hobbies / interests you have, if you have any pets, and what your political beliefs are.
If there are any specific likes or dislikes that you want to make known to potential visitors, the ‘describe yourself’ paragraph is a good place to put it.
Lastly, you can also list some key words that best describe your personality and who you are to other members. If you have any questions for your matches, you can list them at the end of the paragraph as well because they should be able to answer those questions when they send you a message later on.
- Preferences about your matches
The last part of the profile’s completion involves highlighting any particular preferences about your future matches to-be and to state what you would like to see from them if you are going to start a serious relationship in the future.
Each user will have a different priority when it comes to personal preferences but the ones that are usually cited the most include sexual preferences, physical characteristics, religious and political beliefs, age range, and whether that person wants children or not.
It’s also important that your match information includes which language(s) the person should be able to speak, along with their personal hobbies / interests so that you can see whether or not they line up with your own.
- Essay about your ideal match
You also have the option as a member to write an actual essay about your ideal match and what you want to have in a match’s personality, character, and appearance. In order to get the most compatible matches, it’s important to complete the profile fully, especially if you’re a free member. The matching system heavily depends on both the profile of a user and how honestly he or she answers the questions about a number of factors.
- Photos
Every user, whether they are free or paid, also gain access to a number of other main features besides the main profile. You can upload up to thirty photos to your profile in order for other members to get a better sense of who you are physically in terms of your appearance.
- Search
Each member gets access to both e-mails from MillionaireMatch as well as an instant messaging system where they can contact members they have matched with or other members whom they are interested in getting to know better. These features are accompanied by a basic search function, where you can look for specific users or others who you have matched with in order to find their profiles and their pictures.
- Forum
MillionaireMatch, unlike most other online dating websites also comes with an official forum where users can pose questions, interact, and discuss their experiences on the website.
- Blog
There’s also an official blog run by the website where members can write entries about their time on MillionaireMatch if they have been selected to do so. This website gives many different means of communication (e-mails, IMs, blog, forum) available to all of its members so that each of them can have a more interactive experience.
- Verification
In order to prevent spammers, fakes, and scam artists from signing-up for MillionaireMatch.com, each member whether they are free or paid has to go through a verification process in order to become a registered member. Personal aspects of members have to be verified with proof of identity such as age, job, education, and a photo of you.
Without being verified, you won’t be able to join the website successfully. The verification feature serves two purposes in ensuring that members are who they say are and that members won’t be able to do harm to other members intentionally by falsifying who they are when they sign-up and register.
- Questions about yourself
To get better matches, you have to answer questions about yourself. Each member can get access to these questions, which are generated by MillionaireMatch’s algorithm. There are hundreds of questions to be answered about your personality, likes / dislikes, and emotional intelligence.
The more questions that you answer, the likelier you are to have more compatible matches and better relationships.
- Support
If you have any questions, comments, and queries about MillionaireMatch, there is live tech support provided by the website which you can e-mail or chat with immediately in case there’s an issue with the site or you need to communicate something to the staff.
Perhaps, best of all, the tech support team is available 24 / 7 which makes it easier if you’re in a different time zone than the support team but are still seeking help.
- Winks
In case you want to flirt a bit with your matches or visitors to your profile, there is a ‘wink’ option, which members can either ignore or send back to you if you happen to also pique their interest.
The ‘wink’ is good way to show direct interest in the person and if they return it back, you can feel good knowing that if you then send a private message or e-mail, it’s likely that it will be replied to.
- Facebook option
Because social networking websites are becoming bigger and bigger, online dating websites including MillionaireMatch are now giving you the option to save time and allow you to use your Facebook account information to create your profile on the website.
It’s a good way to connect your social networking profiles to your dating profiles but be aware that MillionaireMatch will be able to access everything on your Facebook account if you don’t manage your privacy settings when it comes to external applications.
Additional Features
There are many positives when it comes to being a paid member of MillionaireMatch such as:
- Advanced search
The ‘advanced search’ function is an important additional feature that is only available for paid users as well. It allows you to be much more specific in your queries when finding members especially when you can be more selective about physical features such as height, weight, eye color, hair color, etc.
This advanced search function makes it easier to find those members who exactly fit your dating and relationship profile and who most matches up with that profile based on your search query.
MillionaireMatch, on its main website page, posts dating tips and news that can help you if you’re a member but it’s only seen if you are a paid subscriber as well.
- Wealth certification and verification process
If you want to be seen as a millionaire on MillionaireMatch, it’s important that you’re able to certify that fact about yourself in order to look good to other members and show that you can have that kind of wealth.
However, you must be a paid member in order to have the option to certify your millionaire status. It’s currently not available to those free members who would like to show their income status to others.
- Relationship counselor
MillionaireMatch also provides its’ paid members with a live dating and relationship counselor who you can chat and e-mail with if you need advice or tips regarding the website or its members. This is an exclusive service that you won’t be able to find with many other websites.
MillionaireMatch has made this feature only available to paid users so if you find that you’re not able to see a ‘live counselor’ option on your profile, it’s because you’re still a free subscriber. If you need a lot of help with your dating profile, it may be worth it to spend the extra cash for the ‘live counselor’ feature.
- Gold Membership
The Gold membership is the highest form of membership when it comes to MillionaireMatch. It includes all of the paid, additional features of the website but also exclusive ones. You can respond to other members’ first date ideas and give your own on your profile.
You can also send birthday cards and/or greeting cards to other members who you are interested in and have gotten to know during your time as a user.
Full mobile access to the MillionaireMatch application is another unique feature that will allow you to stay in contact with your potential matches, and your prospective visitors even when you’re not on your computer.
On top of that, a gold member gets priority access to MillionaireMatch customer service as well as the online counselor who can help with dating advice and tips. If you’re willing to splurge for a Gold membership, there are a number of useful features that you’ll be rewarded with as a result.
Free vs. Paid Membership
When you’re a free user, there are certain limits that the website puts on you which prevents you from having the full experience.
A free user is not allowed to communicate directly with other members who are paid subscribers. This makes it more difficult to have dates or even start relationships when you’re unable to send a message to a paid member whom you’re interested in.
In addition, not all privacy options are able to be changed when you’re a free user so if you’re concerned about that, it may be worth the extra money each month to ensure that you have control over that aspect of your profile.
When you’re a free user, you can only see the main large photo displayed on other members’ profiles but you won’t be able to access all of the twenty-seven photos that can be shown to you if you sign-up as a paid member. It will be difficult for you to tell whether or not you’re attractive to another member if you’re only able to see one of their photos from their profile.
Moreover, free users are unable to use additional paid features mentioned above.
Millionaire Match Costs
If you’re looking for an upgraded membership for MillionaireMatch.com, you’ll have to pay some money for that kind of subscription. The costs of membership for this website were last updated in January of 2016.

When you sign-up for a membership subscription, your membership will automatically renew at the end of your subscription. However, you can take off the automatic renewal option in your login page or by contacting customer service.
Positives and Negatives

There are many positives to MillionaireMatch, which is why it has lasted more than a decade and has garnered millions of members looking to make connections between and among a wealthy clientele.

MillionaireMatch has a thorough verification process, which allows the site to be trustworthy in terms of guaranteeing that the members who you match with and the ones that you talk to are actually millionaires.
Those millionaire members when they go through and pass the certification process are rewarded with a ‘diamond’ icon next to their name on the main profile page to indicate that their income level is in line with the website’s name.
Another positive is that the verification process even goes beyond income level to include name, photo, age, education level, occupation, etc. so that other members will know for sure that you are who you say you are. When you complete the verification process for those personal aspects of yourself, you will be rewarded by a ‘verification’ symbol being placed next to your name on the main profile page as well.

There are some of the positives and reasons why MillionaireMatch has been around since the early days of the Internet and maintains millions of members to this day.
Negatives:
MillionaireMatch isn’t perfect and there are still some flaws which prevent it from being the best website.
- Expensive subscription
It is too focused on a certain niche and only caters to a specific part of the population, who is wealthy and has the means to pay for an expensive subscription.
- No video or audio features
There’s also the fact that their website lags behind others in terms of advances in communicative technology with not having the options for video or audio chat for any of their members. It’s something that they will have to improve upon in the future given that some of their competitors have a leg up with offering their members either audio or video chat and something both options.
