Thai Love Links Review (Thai Cupid)

Main Features

• Registration

When you want to finally dive in and register as a member of ThaiLoveLinks, you’ll have to go through the registration process, which is actually quite quick and painless. You’ll be asked for some basic information about yourself, which is quite similar to other online dating websites.

In order to register, you’ll need to share your name, gender (male or female), and where you’re from originally. Once you do that, you’ll be asked to give your e-mail address, a unique username to use on the website, and a unique password, which you’ll be able to use in order to log-in to your profile after registering.

• Basic Profile

Once you finish your profile registration, you’ll be asked to give more personal information about yourself in order to create your public profile.

You will have to be specific about your physical characteristics such as your height, weight, body type (athletic, average, overweight, etc.), eye color, and hair color.

This will allow the Thai and Western members of the website to have a better idea of what you’re like in person in terms of your physical traits. If you don’t want to be too personal, you may want to avoid adding the following information.

ThaiLoveLinks will inquire more about your personal details but you can choose not to answer given that some of the information they ask of you is optional and not mandatory.

However, it’s important to keep in mind that the more detailed your profile is, the easier it will be for you to get more visitors and receive more matches.

ThaiLoveLinks will ask about your opinion on marriage and whether or not you would like to have some children in the future.

Lastly, they’ll want to know about what kind of traits and characteristics would you like to see in a potential friend or romantic partner. By filling this part out, you’ll be able to get more compatible matches and more visitors to your profile.

Since ThaiLoveLinks focuses primarily on making sure that Western singles can meet and date Thai singles, this website will also inquire about your English and your Thai level when it comes to speaking and understanding these two languages since it will be very important to communicate with each other verbally in a relationship.

The website will also want to know about if you would be willing to relocate to a new country for a potential romantic partner if it was a really serious relationship or you were both planning on getting married.

• Uploading Photos

No online dating profile would be complete without adding some personal pictures of you.

Fortunately, ThaiLoveLinks gives you the option to add some photos of yourself to your profile in order to receive better matches and get more visitors as well.

It’s important that you make sure to add pictures only of yourself and not of your friends, your pets, or your family members instead.

• Personality Profile

You also have the option to create a ‘Personality Profile’, which is apart of your regular profile but includes you being able to describe your habits, routines, interests, likes and dislikes. It’s a feature with a much more expansive look into who you are, what you’re all about, and what do you want out of life.

• The Matching Process

When you fill out your profile as well as upload a few pictures, you’ll be able to start receiving matches based on your interests, hobbies, and what you’re looking for in a partner.

Like many other online dating websites, ThaiLoveLinks uses algorithms that help to connect like-minded users together who share common interests and values.

• Reverse Matches and Mutual Matches

In addition to being able to receive regular matches based on good compatibility, you’ll also be eligible for ‘reverse matches’ and ‘mutual matches.’ ‘Reverse Matches’ are when you are looking for other users who are similar to you but whom don’t fit into your personal criteria based on your personality profile.

‘Mutual matches’ occur when you’re able to find another user who directly fits into your personality profile and is extremely compatible with you based on your results.

• Search Function

One of the most valuable parts to any online dating website is the ‘search’ function. ThaiLoveLinks allows its’ free and paid users to utilize the search function as one of the main features of the website.

If you’re not satisfied with your mutual or reverse matches, you can choose instead to search for other users based on a criteria and range of information that you specify for members that you’re interested in.

If you have someone specific in mind along with their username, you can enter that information into the website’s system so that person will pop up in your search results and you’ll be able to communicate with them.

The ‘search’ function can be as advanced or as basic as you would like it to be. It’s a useful tool, which can come in handy when you’re not satisfied with the ‘mutual matches’ or ‘reverse matches’ of the day.

• Cupid Tags

 If you’re looking to improve your ability to search for certain members of the website, you should consider using ‘CupidTags.’

CupidTags are basically keywords that you can add to your profile, which will allow you to better search for specific members who fit into your given criteria. CupidTags are most similar to the hash tags that are used in Twitter and InstaGram, where you can help get your message seen by people who are discussing the same topic on social media.

By using a CupidTag like ‘loving’ or ‘happy’, you’ll be able to see all of the other members who have wrote that specific tag on their profile and believe that they display that specific personal trait or characteristic.

CupidTags can help you even more with finding someone who you’ll be compatible based on your personal values and habits, which you find most important to have.

• Profile Verification

If you want to be sure that the member of the website who you have been talking to is real and isn’t a robot, it would be best to know for sure that their profile has been verified.

In order to verify your profile on ThaiLoveLinks, you’ll have to submit and scan your passport information page or you can use another form of identification such as a driver’s license, or regular identification card.

You’ll be able to know which profile is verified because the member in question will have a ‘verified’ badge next to their profile.

To be a member of ThaiLoveLinks, it’s not mandatory to verify your profile but you’ll rest easy knowing that the members who you talk to who have the badge on their profile are who they say they are.

In any case, it would be worth it to you to verify your own profile so that other members will feel more comfortable in messaging you or viewing your profile because they’ll know for a fact that you’re a real member of the website.

• Other Main Features

If you’re a free member of ThaiLoveLinks, you’ll be able to access most of the features that this website has to offer. As mentioned before, you can fill out your profile with information about yourself and your personal pictures.

You can also use the ‘search’ function in order to find other members, be able to be matched with other users who are similar to you, and you can receive private messages in your inbox from other users of the website. If you’re not willing to spend any money on the website, you’ll still have a good experience on ThaiLoveLinks.

Additional Features

If you’re willing to spend some money on a paid subscription to ThaiLoveLinks, you’ll be able to choose from two separate types of paid memberships, which offer all of the free features as well as some additional features that you’ll be able to use in order to enhance your online dating experience.

• Gold Membership

The first paid membership plan is the Gold membership, which is the first of two options when it comes to advanced subscriptions.

The best additional feature that the gold membership has to offer is the ability to send and receive unlimited private messages whether they are in an instant chat, text messages, or private messages to another member’s inbox.

Also, you’ll be able to choose which members are allowed to view your profile and your profile photos as you can restrict access to certain members if you’re not interested in them or they are giving you unwanted attention.

• Platinum Membership

When you sign up for the second paid membership option, which is the platinum membership subscription, you’ll be the cream of the crop on ThaiLoveLinks.

In additional to having access to all of the free features and all of the additional features of the gold membership, you’ll also gain access to some other special features that are only available to platinum members.

With a platinum membership, you’ll be able to gain access to ‘advanced matching’, which can allow you to have your private messages sent to Thai or Western members of the site to be translated from English to Thai or from Thai to English.

If you’re desiring to see the special member who you have been chatting with for a while online through instant chat or through text messages, you’ll be able to get to see them live in a video chat feature, which is only for those platinum members of the website.

You’ll be able to enjoy chatting with them face-to-face, seeing their mannerisms and expressions, and getting to know them on a higher level by doing a video chat.

Costs of Membership

Unfortunately, paid membership subscriptions whether they are gold or platinum will cost you some money so it’s important to know your options before you make a choice as to how much you’re willing to spend and how long you would like your membership to last for.

For the gold membership subscription, there are four options to consider in terms of price and longevity.

• One Month Gold Membership

The first option is the shortest in length but it is also the most expensive on a monthly basis. You will pay about $26 for a one-month gold subscription.

• Three Months Gold Membership

The second option is three-months total for $54 with a per month price of $18 so you’ll save some money when you choose this particular option.

• Six Months Gold Membership

The third option is longer in length at six-months total with a price of $78 and only $13 per month.

• One Year Gold Membership

The last option is the longest for a yearly membership with a total price of $108 and about $9 per month, which will save you a good amount of money. You’ll be billed for the total amount of money for your membership at the beginning of your subscription period.

• One Month Platinum Membership

When it comes to the platinum membership of ThaiLoveLinks, there are only two options available for purchase when you want to get a subscription.

The first option is about $26 for the one-month subscription, which is the more expensive of the two options.

• Three Months Platinum Membership

For the three-month subscription, you’ll pay $48 for the total membership period at only $16 per month saving you some money but for which you’ll have to ensure a longer commitment with this online dating website.
