The Client route means you receive our matchmaking service

‍

1. There is no membership fee. To get started and begin receiving our service, you just must confirm and have us get to know you through a deep-dive video call, which is $195. This fee is for our time in clarifying your search, getting more personal about your relationship history of what has worked and not worked, reviewing your photos, and answering any questions you may have. This allows us to create your “sharable profile” and send it to you for review, and identify any initial candidates. The fee is non-refundable, even if we do not find any suitable candidates.
2. The fee to meet a match is $499, no matter whether they’re a DateSpot member or client of a partner matchmaker, or whether they are a DateSpot Client or Candidate. By joining as a Client, you agree to pay this price should we find a suitable match and there is mutual interest. If you ever want to opt out, please email support@datespot.love with the update and downgrade in your Account Settings.
3. Being a Client allows you to receive match options from anyone within our network and partner networks when there is mutual interest. They would pay either $0 if they are a Candidate or $499 if they are a Client to match with you.  If they are a client of a partner matchmaker, they would not pay DateSpot anything as they have already paid their matchmaking company.
4. There are no guaranteed intros or match options - we will bring you as many people as we see fit, with no quota. The frequency and quantity of Recommended Dates varies per client and is dependent on your unique situation and search parameters. We will conduct an initial search for you but may not report on the results. We may search for you at any time during your membership. Do not expect us to be continually proactively recruiting and searching for you.
5. A paid video consultation is not required, but is recommended so we can get to know you, clarify your search, and match you best. This is $195 and can be booked here.
6. We recommend a 2 month check-in call that you schedule from the link in the Client Handbook. This ensures that we touch base about your initial search and can discuss next steps for additional outreach if needed. Beyond that call, we will contact you when we have something of value to provide. Feel free to check in with us up to once per month by email.
7. Introductions are on a pay-per-match basis, where each intro occurs after your payment.
8. Payment is accepted through Zelle, Venmo, PayPal, or credit card. Pricing may change over time, but you will always have the option to pay for the intro fee at the time of a potential match. We will never automatically charge you.
9. We can vet all U.S.-based Recommended Dates by video call. We generally will include in each Recommended Date whether the person has already been met with. If that info is not provided, you can ask us. If you need to have us meet someone to help make your decision, we will by request after knowing you have some interest. International members may not be vetted due to the time difference, but we ask for photo verification – a photo of the candidate holding a piece of paper that says “DateSpot [date]”. If a potential match is a partner matchmaker's client, matchmakers generally trust each other and rely on multiple photos and account info. This means that most of those clients will NOT be vetted live.
10. n the U.S., introductions are generally done via text to protect privacy of last names and get the fastest response. Internationally, we generally do intros by email to avoid anyone paying phone fees.
11. Date planning is done by you and the match, which allows you to choose a mutually desirable time and location and easily reach each other in case of last minute changes.
12. You can pause your membership for an unlimited amount of time if you become exclusive with someone, or for any reason. Please notify us or change your tier in your Account Settings if you ever want to pause, change your tier, or cancel.
13. We maintain your privacy. We occasionally post “Client Spotlights” on our social media platforms, only when you have given your explicit permission. The Client Spotlight photos would NOT contain images of your face unless it was specifically agreed upon. We may share your profile with anyone at any time who may be helpful in the search, including any private matchmaker-specific group.
14. Information about any members is confidential and not to be shared without DateSpot’s explicit permission.
15. You also agree to the full Terms and Conditions of the website.

We look forward to working with you and helping you find lasting love!
