OkCupid is as safe as many other popular dating applications and websites such as eHarmony.com. OkCupid is designed to make quick connections with matches in your area, while focussing on compatibility. OkCupids privacy depends on your personal settings, so it is your responsibility to set these once you join OkCupid.

Does OkCupid verify your account?

Adding your phone number is now a requirement on OkCupid. Youll need it to create a new account, or (if you already have an account) to send messages or intros. Confirming your phone number helps keep your account safe and secure, and makes it easier for you to log in to OkCupid.

Can someone see your message on OkCupid?

They will not be told that you Passed on their profile. They also will not see your profile again on the site, and you wont see them, so it wont be awkward. If youd prefer to tell someone in a message that youre not interested, thats fine!

Why does OkCupid keep banning me?

We consider unsolicited sexual content and messages to be sexual harassment. If we find you to be in violation of our Community Guidelines and/or our Terms of Service we will ban your account.
