How it works
How Over 60 Love works.
From signing up to your first conversation, here's exactly what happens on Over 60 Love and what's free.
- Free to join
- No app to download
- Support 24/7
From hello to first date.
Create your account
Sign up for free in a few minutes. You must be 18 or over to join. Your real name and email are never shown publicly, and your location appears only as your nearest town or city.
Build your profile
Add photos and a few lines about yourself: your interests, what a good day looks like, and the sort of person you'd like to meet. Your answers help shape the matches we suggest.
Get daily matches
Every member receives daily match suggestions, and you can browse profiles yourself whenever you like. Like someone to let them know you're interested.
Start talking
Send a message when you're ready. Free members get a limited number of messages each day; VIP members can message as much as they like.
Your profile, your way.
A profile is simply a way of saying hello before you've met. It doesn't need to be clever. The profiles that get the warmest replies are usually the most honest ones: what you love doing, what you're looking forward to, and what you'd like to share with someone.
A few tips that help:
- Use a recent photo. One clear picture of your face, plus one or two doing something you enjoy, works well.
- Be specific. "I love walking the dog on the beach and trying new recipes" says more than "I like the outdoors".
- Say what you're looking for. Friendship, companionship, a relationship or something you'll work out together: all are welcome.
You can edit your profile at any time, so there's no need to get it perfect on day one.
Free and VIP, side by side.
You can do plenty on Over 60 Love without paying anything:
- Create your account and a full profile with photos
- Browse profiles and get daily match suggestions
- Send a limited number of private messages each day
- One free Super Match each week
- Optional ID verification, video verification and profile validation
VIP is for people who want to talk more freely. It adds:
- Unlimited private messaging, with read receipts so you know a message has been seen
- See who likes you, with unlimited likes
- Advanced search filters, such as city and distance
- Incognito: stay hidden from anyone you haven't liked
- Three free Super Matches and one free Boost each week
VIP Plus can be added on top of VIP. It's about standing out rather than unlocking more features: priority placement for your profile, your messages highlighted in other members' inboxes and a VIP Plus badge. Prices for every option are on the pricing page.
On your phone, tablet or computer.
Over 60 Love works in the web browser you already use. There's no separate app to find in an app store. On a phone or tablet you can add the site to your home screen, so it opens with one tap just like an app.
Safe from the very start.
You can block anyone instantly, so they can no longer contact you or see your profile, and report a member or anything they've posted from within the site. Photos, videos and text are screened as they're uploaded, and complaints are resolved within five business days. If someone tries to move your conversation to another app, we'll warn you, because that's a common scam tactic. Read more on our safety page.
How it works: your questions
How long does it take to join?
A few minutes to create an account. A good profile takes a little longer, but you can come back and add to it whenever you like.
I'm not very confident online. Is it hard to use?
We've kept these pages simple, with large text and clear buttons. You can make the text even bigger with the A buttons at the top of the page, and our support team can help by chat, phone or messaging at any time.
Do I have to put my photo on?
It's up to you, but profiles with clear, recent photos tend to get more replies. You don't need professional pictures; a well-lit photo taken by a friend is perfect.
Who can see my profile?
Other members can see your profile, username and nearest town or city. Your real name and email address are never shown publicly. VIP members can also switch on Incognito, which hides them from anyone they haven't liked.
What does it cost?
Joining, building a profile, browsing and daily matches are free, and free members can send a limited number of messages each day. VIP adds unlimited messaging and more. Current prices are on our pricing page.
How do I cancel or leave?
You can delete your account whenever you like. To cancel a paid membership, contact our support team, which you can reach from the members area.
