Japan Cupid Review 2023 - Is It The Real Deal?

How it works?

The JapanCupid.com landing page is quite welcoming, with a large picture of a smiling model. The site is also available in multiple languages.

The profile creation starts after you click the “View Online Now” button. A pop-up will appear, containing a preliminary form where you can indicate your basic information or log in with your Facebook account.

After completing this process, check the “Yes I agree…” option and click the “View Singles Now” button again. And that’s it: your account is ready without the need for any additional verification. While this process might be convenient, it encourages the appearance of fake accounts.

Next, you will see another pop-up to upload a profile picture. You can skip this process and get to it later.

When completing the preliminary stages, you will be redirected to your dashboard to start searching for your preferences. From the outset, you will notice a few suspicious (too-good-to-be-true) profiles with flawless avatars. These fake profiles fit the descriptions in Japan Cupid reviews. Searches can be narrowed down to preferences by age, proximity, country of residence, and age range.

You can also visit your profile to upload pictures (up to five for the standard plan). Including a detailed bio and a Cupid Tag will help your account stand out in searches.

You cannot chat with users or enjoy the rest of the features unless you have a Gold or Platinum subscription.

Remember to turn off auto-renewal if you don’t want to continue your membership.

Audience

JapanCupid.com caters mostly to Japanese citizens or people living in Japan. But recently, the site has lost its niche appeal due to the influx of singles from other nations. While Japanese Cupid reviews are mixed on this issue, it seems Cupid media has decided to go against its own policy.

Consequently, the relaxation of the niche restrictions has opened the floodgates for criminal activity. To stay safe, report any user that explicitly asks you to share personal information. Also, do not send money to people whose motives you are yet to determine.

Pricing

The cost of creating a profile is free. You can also browse the site to see the quality of profiles present on the platform. However, your fun ends here if you don’t have a standard subscription. Here are the subscription plans for members:

Gold Membership Plan

This membership plan gives you access to instant messaging, as well as allows you to make your profile invisible and communicate with all members.

• 1 month — $35 flat rate
• 3 months — $70 ($23.33 per month)
• 12 months — $140 ($11.67 per month)

Platinum Membership Plan

The platinum membership plan includes all the perks of the Gold membership as well as VIP profile highlighting, exclusive search parameters, and higher ranking. The costs of the various plans are as follows:

• 1 month — $40 flat rate
• 3 months — $80 ($26.67 per month)
• 12 months — $150 ($12.50 per month)

How to Make Payments on JapanCupid.com

JapanCupid has a few modern and secure payment varieties. Clients can pay for membership using several options:

• PayPal
• Credit and debit cards
• WebMoney
• YandexMoney
• Money orders
• Cheques
• Regular bank transactions

Safety

JapanCupid has an extensive guideline page of how to use the website without getting scammed. But these safety tips are mostly ineffective. JapanCupid.com denies responsibility for any illegal activity that takes place on its platform. So, you have to protect your data when using the service.

On the bright side, JapanCupid protects user’s anonymity. The company will never post anything about your engagement on your Facebook profile. They also make use of encryption protocols to protect user communication.

Conclusion

To conclude, JapanCupid is a fairly average site if you want to find Japanese singles. The website is easy to use and also affordable. However, the dating company has to update its privacy rules. Also, they should consider adding a two-step verification procedure to ensure the legitimacy of registered accounts.
