"I joined PinaLove because I wanted to meet a Filipina. When I got in, the home page was full of photos. A few minutes later, it got exciting as messages started flooding my inbox. I wanted to reply to each one of them, but I was limited to one message every 10 minutes. That didn’t stop me, though. The members were responsive, and they even gave me their personal mobile numbers. I think I might upgrade to premium and try to get more experience." - Alex, 27

Exclusively on DatingScout: online member numbers for dating services are usually far off, so we estimate how many people are really on PinaLove from traffic data and interest, updated monthly, with history.
PinaLove is a dating platform that caters to a majority of Filipino girls and ladyboys, and foreign men. And every time you want to switch your preference, you can do so by resetting the tabs provided at the top. Every profile photo also has the user’s name, age, and location. So it is more convenient to identify the ones you want to meet.
The majority of the members are male. One-third of the users are between 25 and 34 years old. And the rest are concentrated on the ages 18 to 24 and 35 to 44.
This dating site has a growing number of members. The frequent visitors are from the United States with 290,000 members; the United Kingdom with 130,000 members; the Philippines with 90,000 members; Australia with 70,000 members; and Germany with 60,000 members.
Though we found members looking for someone to marry, more users prefer hookups. We had several instances wherein they would say outright that they wanted to have sex.
PinaLove claims that they are a dating site for Filipina women. And we thought at first that this was a dating site for men and women. But, as you might have already guessed, there are also ladyboys, many of whom are active on this dating site. We might have been misled as we began using this website. Nonetheless, it is safe to remember that PinaLove also accommodates ladyboys.
Don't worry about not meeting someone because PinaLove has a lot of active members. They diligently send messages to online members and reply right away to your chats. However, it is still better, taken from PinaLove's statement, to only give contact details to other members after you have talked to them for a while and are comfortable doing so.

★★★★★ 4.0/5
Design & usability
Design and Usability
On one side, looking through PinaLove's home page is quite unappealing. Profile photos can crowd the page too much. The pictures are too tight that they can overlap. Chances are, a member's profile will get less probability of getting noticed. This can be a let-down for millennial users.
On the other hand, looking through PinaLove's home page is as convenient as how you want to communicate with the other members quickly. The platform is uncomplicated as the tabs to set your preferences are provided at the top. For example, if you want to meet members from Cebu, then change the location tab to 'Cebu'.
If you go to the homepage, you will also see the online members. The newest members are highlighted as well.
