Who is signed up on CatholicMatch in Singapore?

Exclusively on DatingScout: online member numbers for dating services are usually far off, so we estimate how many people are really on CatholicMatch from traffic data and interest, updated monthly, with history.

CatholicMatch caters to users who professed their faith for Catholicism. This is regardless of how strict or lenient they follow and practise the teachings of the Catholic Church.

The dating site more than a million members all over the world, and it continues to grow. Most of the users are from English-speaking countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada.

Since Catholicism is arguably the world's most prominent religious denomination, the website also gained loyal members from European countries like Sweden, Poland, and Ireland, as well as Latin American territories of Brazil and El Salvador.

The website has a balanced ratio of male and female profiles, with a considerable number going online at any given time. This is somewhat good news: it's highly unlikely that you're not going to match with someone while on the dating site.

The members are most active in the discussion forums where various topics ranging from the likes of prayer requests, divorce, current events to teachings for Catholics, and even more are welcome.

Our field test

★★★★★ 4.5/5

"I met my fiancée through CatholicMatch. No other dating website was an option since I knew my faith had to be paramount in any relationship. And I wasn't in it for fun and games; I wanted to look for my future spouse. She sent the first message, but since I didn't have a subscription, I couldn't read it yet. I tried browsing through other accounts, but something kept pulling me back to her profile. I now know that was divine intervention. Finally, I relented and paid for a premium membership. And it's been nothing but a positive experience from our first chat up to the proposal. Thank you, CatholicMatch!"

Design & usability

Design and Usability

The website has a modern feel. The home page isn't cluttered, and space is designated wisely.

You will find most of the features that you need upfront; no need to click through so many tabs. The functions are user-friendly and can be accessible to users of all ages.

You will find almost no pesky ads, and if there are any, they're also from faith-based organisations. Overall, browsing and navigating this dating website is a smooth and straightforward experience.

Special features

CatholicMatch offers unique features that make up for its lack of a matching algorithm. And that's probably why they work; they let members sort out the matches they like rather than just presenting it to them.

Showing interest 1

FreePaid

EmotigramsFree

These are emoticons that are exclusively available in CatholicMatch. Since talking to someone can be nerve-wracking, CatholicMatch has given users a way to help them make a quick and easy introduction sans the pressure of finding the right words. You can send someone a bouquet, a rosary, or a cup of coffee instead of saying "hello."

Messaging and contact 1

FreePaid

Interview QuestionsFree

You can use Interview Questions as icebreakers before you even start chatting with another member. You can create up to 20 multiple-choice questions and let others answer these on your profile. This can be a great way to know if someone has a "deal-breaker" habit or belief for you. The results of this interview will be delivered as a message in your inbox.

Other extras 1

FreePaid

Temperament

There's a proto-psychological theory stating that there are four fundamental personality types: sanguine, melancholic, choleric, and phlegmatic. They say people can be any single one or a combination of these. A peek into the results can provide you with incredible insights on how to deal with the person energetically.

CatholicMatch offers a Temperament quiz with one of its affiliated websites to give you an insight into your personality. The results are posted on your profile so you can view and compare it with other members' results with ease.
