Book of Matches Review (2020)

We have seen many premium dating sites until now that provide numerous basic and advanced features. However, today we will be looking at a site that provides all these features without any price tag. The name of this site is Book of Matches!

Many dating sites on the internet claim to be free but they have hidden costs inside.

Some of the most important features come with a price tag and therefore, you cannot call them a free site. However, that isn't the case with BOM. It offers everything for free, including instant messages, email messages, and much more.

Also, it will never ask you for your credit card details. Therefore, you can register on this site without any preconceived notions. It provides many privacy options to the members, which enables them to keep their information away from strangers.

The quality of the matches is also up to the mark, and they even provide a quality score for every profile, which depends on how they utilize this dating platform. Book of Matches supports straight, gay, and lesbian relationships.

Also, you can indulge in online dating, casual relationship, a serious relationship or even friendship on this site. It supports both short time and long-time relations. Therefore, it pretty much works for everyone.

What are the noteworthy features of the Book of Matches?

The Book of Matches is a dating platform that works as a social media platform as well. It allows members to send requests to each other. You can see certain details like blogs, images, personality tests, etc. only when that person accepts your friend request.

This even keeps your private data safe from scammers. Moreover, you can add members to your favourite list as well. BOM is a free dating site, but some of its features are better than premium dating sites. For example, you can set certain preferences in your profile based on gender, age group, location, etc.

Now, only the members that match these preferences can contact you via email or direct messages. Thus, Book of Matches helps you to stay away from people who do not suit your dating requirements. Members can even send winks to each other.

This not only acts as an icebreaker, but it also can be used to flirt with members who are already your friends. Each member is associated with a quality score. The quality score is calculated based on whether you are using all its features or not.

This score can range from zero to a hundred and is always displayed on your profile. Members with a better-quality score are likely to receive more requests and winks. Users who achieve a quality score of 100 get a mark of certification which is displayed near your display picture.

The quality certificate provides numerous benefits to the users. For example, members who have a quality score of 100 can exchange email addresses and numbers with each other. Not only that but it also provides several other benefits.
