How to find single people in your part of Australia

The path is always the same: pick your state, pick your local area, pick your town. The town page tells you where people meet there, what a first date costs and what to watch for when you meet someone new.

Alongside that there are topic pages, from singles over 40 to speed dating, beach walk dates and country singles, which answer the same questions for one particular situation. If you want to move faster, set up a free profile at the same time and put the search radius at the distance you would genuinely drive on a Wednesday.

What online dating costs in Australia

Joining is free almost everywhere: build a profile, add photos, browse the suggestions and often receive a first message without paying anything.

Money usually comes in at unlimited messaging or a subscription with extra filters, somewhere between twenty and sixty dollars a month depending on the service and how long you commit for. The sensible order is to check for free whether there are enough active people inside your radius, and only then decide. Auto-renewal is by far the most common complaint, so note the date and cancel through the app store if you do not want another month.

Staying safe when you meet someone new

No address, no bank details, no intimate photos to anyone you have not met in person. First meeting in a public place, your own transport both ways, and someone who knows where you are.

Any request for money ends the conversation, without exception and without discussion. Someone who keeps refusing a video call usually has a reason. This site publishes no profiles and no contact details of any kind: it explains how meeting people works locally and links to dating sites where you sign up yourself, if you want to.
