It's getting tougher and tougher finding a love heart. Of course, some people do it offline somewhere in the cafes or bars, while I got used to use dating services. I chose this one because I liked the design of this company and the navigation on their website. It's much better than hyped tinder or something like that. I found here couple of interesting people who gained my attention and we started chatting. They were pretty cute and friendly when they communicated with me. I hope we will be able to meet one day and big thanks to this service as it connects people from various countries of our world.
I started talking with a guy on there. His user name was allinhilarity. That name should have been a clue but I give the benefit of the doubt. He was a racist and just wanted to talk about sex and try to get nudes. For any woman that reads this he will make you think he is a good guy but he is extremely racist and doesn't actually like women he just makes fun of them. Christian cafe of course will not care if you report him. I just hope an innocent woman doesn't get sucked into his games.
This website has a number of fake profiles. I was contacted by about 20 women during my 10-day free trial, almost all of them from Asia and nowhere near America. A few from other parts of the country but seemed too good to be true. I did have one "local" woman contact me but her profile said she actually lived 1600 miles away--when I called her on it she claimed customer service told her that her location couldn't be changed, but that isn't true and I showed her how to easily change it herself, and she continued to say she couldn't. She kept coming on to me, gave me a "work" phone number, we even exchanged email addresses, but her communication stopped as soon as I decided not to continue beyond the free trial. Don't trust the people on this site. The only good thing was that they give you a free trial to communicate with these people--though you can't trust anyone who is contacting you.
There appears to be a lack of eligible senior men on here in my area of Northern California. I wish more people were aware of your site. I think you have the best questions on the profile layout that I have seen so far.
I was referred to it by a friend who recently married a man she met on your site. She research sites ahead of time and liked the questions on the profile the best and your trial membership. She and the guy she met (now her new husband) were both on a trial membership!
The best value for the money.

The best value for the money.
I live in the lower mainland of British Columbia, Canada. There are about 5 or 6 men within 85 kilometers of me within my age range that are in Canada. I emailed the company to say that it wasn't worth it for the 5 or 6 men that I have reached out to and never responded/acknowledged that I sent them a note, but they insist that there are tons of men suitable for me on this app. I don't want to "date" a man in Haiti or France. Thanks very much. It's a waste of money if you're in BC Canada.
Then you have the forums which is no shortage of "Christians" laying out judgement about all sorts of people in different situations (ie divorce etc).
Tip for consumers:
There are not enough people in BC Canada that are signed up, to justify the cost of a membership.
Easy sign up. Flexibility to write personal responses without word count limitation. I live in a tri-state metropolitan area. I find it odd no local members are responding. All responses are out of state which I find VERY odd!
To find compatibility w other faith-based believers.
There were choices of men i could choose. Race playing a factor also men response even if they don't want to pursue me. But disappointed there weren't more Adventist still i thought i wad signing up with an Adventist site.
I saw black Adventist dating site but that was not true i only found 2 Adventist men.
If i don't meet someone in a month this is not where am going to find him. Hope i don't have a problem unsubscribing as in pass experience.
It is sad that this dating site doesn't have more reviews. I love the site, because it is a true Christian dating site. I just think there are very few Christians willing to go on a dating site. Yet, you will find all kinds of "carnal" Christians on POF or Match. Why someone would call themselves a Christian, if it didn't matter to them, is a mystery to me?
It is the same situation for me in that there are very few Christian men from my state (Washington), in my age range (50-55) on there which makes it that much harder. I'm a firm believer that if it's meant to be, it will be.
As a devoted Christian on a "Christian site", I expected more from the "Christian members ", most of the members I chose to write to, with beautiful profiles of how devoted they're in their communities, never took the time to write a note back. Noticed that they all have received the emails and checked my profile. But no response.
One of my best friend married her beloved husband here on this site.
I sent an email to customer service concerning my ability to search for my perspective criteria. I got no response.
2. Better Search criteria: When you select age, there should be a box to input the preferred age range.
3. "Race" or Ethnicity is important for some who want to date within or around there chosen cultural, ethnic, or racial group. This is the freedom of choice in dating and praying for a mate. When you select the race, ethnicity, or cultural criteria, the result of the selection should be the only results view for that particular instance.
3. Searches for the "exact" selective country.
The Customer service has responded to assist me. Thank you.
I'm not a new member, I've been a member since 2001, AND Christiancafe.com erased my old account for no reason, which I lost all my data and had to start over.
I want a one-time purchase-WITH NO RECURRING PAYMENT PROCESSED WITH THE CARD WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. THIS IS A ONE-TIME PURCHASE.

I am happy being a member of this dating site because most of the members are genuine born again Christians. The profile pictures of the members are decent ones reflecting the Christian faith compared to other Christian dating sites. When I see a member dress like non Christians in a dating site, it disturbs my spirits and I quickly move to the next profile.
I first found my former wife through this site in year 2003, got married in November 2005. The marriage lasted for 13 years but I must sincerely tell you God was involved in ending the marriage from what I have seen from 2018 till date. I had to come back again to find my next wife because one can find his or her wife from any part of the world. One significant interest to me is, this site do not restrict me to a particular age range online like a few Christian dating site who will never allow me to search for members below a particular age. From the Bible perspective and looking at great prophets God has used in the Bible, there were no age cape to find ones wife. Some women or sisters prefer older husbands than younger ones. So let members decide and no dating site should decide for them.
Your offer is very considerate, lower in price compared to other Christian dating site who have less large membership. More so, your membership is world wide

The only discrepancy i might have so far is that when certain locations are not checked in order to do a "search" at any time that those locations still appear from profiles. Otherwise, i have enjoyed chatting with a few profiles so far and sure ill continue to do so.
To share with similar faith minded and or heart felt ladies and hopefully broaden my scope of relations and acquired types.
My experience was not as expected. I think maybe the time was too short. I did not like most of the matches that was suggested that were particularly from a specific part of the world. Overall, some men's profile were unfinished.
Additionally some of their pictures were not recent and it appeared as though some of them were no longer active on the site.
On the favorable side, the site was reasonably easy to navigate, offered helpful tips, timely messages and great advice.
Online search
To give myself some more time to find the right person.
Hello, I want to just add that i met my fianec3 years ago here and we have been together since. We both met each other on the free trial and now we are getting married by next week. We are very happy and encourage others to keep the faith and stay positive in Jesus name.
Difficult to navigate, individuals shown are not from my part of the country or even province, unable to delete people who keep showing up as 100% match which are not the case at all. The matches are quite variable, not reliable, very frustrating to reply to a potential match due to erasing the reply if you navigate away from the page at all.
I haven't received a response as yet..they say 24-48 hours.
I desire to meet a Godly man
I believe I can do it in 3 months. If it's longer. I have the wrong site
Straight forward, non threatening questions. Easy to upload pics

Very unhappy as I've sent out many messages to various people and few people have responded. And I don't know if they read your comment to be polite and respond. It seems rude and not Christianlike to act this way..
Want to date, hopefully long term.
Want to date, hopefully long term.
Should be able to find someone within 3 months or website does not justify itself.
As a new member of Christian Cafe I have been blessed to meet many people. Unfortunately I am currently unable to provide any reviews about dating as I am still new to this website. I wish everyone who decides to become a member all the best.
Christian Cafe provides good customer service. The staff at CC responded to my concerns, were polite and professional.
I chose Christian Cafe because it is a Christian based website that has a history of providing friendship and dating services.
Not many on this site. It is inefficient and frustrating to search as it keeps showing those I have already viewed, doesn't list the message content with a profile, won't search by absolute distance on it's own (listing closer and newer matches.) It does not list closer and newer matches.
There are very limited matches in my area. Pay is ridiculously expensive. And the staff sends you a message to trick you into thinking you might have a message from another user to get you to log back in and pay
Because I thought it was time to look at other sites.
We're glad you've chosen to join our Christian singles site to find a mate. There will be more matches in larger urban centers and we've expanded your search to include the bordering states, seeing as they're close to your location. This should provide you with many more matches. Many men will gladly travel to meet a special woman so don't hesitate to introduce yourself to all who interest you;)
Please note that our system will ONLY send you a notification if another member has written to you; any mail from Cafe Staff doesn't trigger that notification.
Login now to introduce yourself to new people. The more people you write, the higher your chances of connecting!
I am happy that you can send messages for free, and browse, and i am happy to pay and honour your web site and the Lord when i find someone that we want to continue talking, and exchange contact information!
Well i mainly only want to find another Christian, it is free to start and the price isn't all that bad, and less than some others, and there are girls from the area and they seem not to be fakes or scammers, so that is good too!
Well i am not much one to be on these sites for the long haul... if i find someone than i do, but if i don't than i do not want to hang around. I just trust in the Lord and this is how He is guiding me, thank you for asking and hope this will help you in your decision making process!
Generally, I think the Christian Cafe is a good site - I think those who post profiles tend to be genuine Christians. My complaint is that they automatically sign you up for auto-renewal payments without telling you. It is also not shown when you look at your settings - and it is very hard to find on their web site. This is supposedly a "Christian owned" company. Even secular web sites where I have an account plainly show whether I have auto-renewal for payments. I think the Christian Cafe is being purposefully sneaky about trying to take more money from you - BAD - VERY BAD!
Hi Bill,
Thank you for your kind words about us being a good site and having genuine Christians. We're sorry for your upset about how our renewal system works. We would never renew you without telling you about it. That would be illegal, not to mention unethical. We are Christian owned and operated, and to do anything less wouldn't be befitting of a Christian service.
Our service is unlike any other dating website, in that we offer all newcomers a 10-day free trial, where they can search, browse, contact other members, and receive mail, during their trial (7 days for your profile and 3 more for posting your photo). After this, if they find value in what we offer, they can sign up for a membership.
Our service is subscription-based, the same as signing up for any online service, dating or otherwise (or offline services such as a gym membership, mobile phone service, magazine subscription, etc.). It continues until you cancel it (which you can do at any time).
We inform you of this not only on your membership page. It is also explained in multiple places, so that there can be no doubt about it and how it works.
Before we go into detail about that, let us first say that our purpose is for our members to connect romantically, not to have any upset over how our membership works! We really want to help you connect:-) You didn't tell us your username, but if you provide it to us, we'll give you 2 weeks free time, so that the above becomes water under the bridge:-) The email address to ask for this is at the bottom of our response.
Here are the places on our website about our membership process:
1). It is clearly explained during the initial sign-up process on your membership page, in regular size font, right below where you entered your credit card information:
"By placing your order on the next page you agree to the Terms and Conditions and understand and agree that your credit / debit card will be charged $xx. Xx USD each renewal period until you decide to cancel, at any time, via your contacts page under the help menu."
2). The above paragraph includes a link to The "Terms and Conditions" page, which goes into greater detail about how the subscription service works.
3). It is referenced in the "Thank you for supporting ChristianCafe.com!" message we send to your mailbox, where it says, "You can check your renewal date at any time by going to the membership page."
4). It is explained in detail on the site itself in the "Help section", under "Membership" (Help > Membership).
5). You can control by turning off the automatic renewal process, which is explained in the Help section (Help > Membership > Does ChristianCafe.com have automatic renewals for payments? > change your renewal status).
Again, we're sorry for your experience. However, while we go "above and beyond" in explaining clearly how the system works, we cannot force you to read what we write:-(
Please email us at help@christiancafe.com and mention your post here, so we can give you the free time we promised!
Merry Christmas!
Cafe Staff
Start out by saying I was frustrated with this site as I had a billing issue regarding the auto renewal program they use. It overdrew my account one night even when I thought I canceled it a few weeks prior. I emailed management and they gave me back the money that was taken out of the account. I was very, very happy. It was the right thing to do. The women I talked to on that site were very nice and totally Christian. I enjoyed speaking to them who lived from around the country. I would totally recommend this site to young men who are looking for that special kind of woman, and who also may not have the dating skills you think you would need to make one like you, as you can make yourself more desirable by practicing on women who are your type, yet won't have to go through the embarrassment of getting shutdown over the internet. Thanks for reading :)
We're glad your billing issue was resolved. We try to resolve every issue quickly! Thank you for the shout out - glad you liked us!
Well time will tell as so new on here and i havent viewed men in my region much atall as im in bancroft ont most are farther away living but god willing new persons will show up closer in my immediate vicinity,
this site first because its christian and right for me as well
I feel this gives me ample time to see if it works within my close proximity of location for meeting someone,
I started my membership well. Unfortunately, when I renewed my membership, I noticed it's been slow in getting matches. Apparently, I noticed the pictures of the matches have been the same. I am sorry to say that I am not happy that I renewed my subscription. I hope I am wrong.
I was only invited to try ChristianCafe by another former member. I thought - I have nothing to lose as long as I take extra care and be vigilant to avoid scammers. Unfortunately, I noticed the matches have been the same, no movement. A little bit disappointing!
So far I noticed that there are more decent Christians matches in this dating site compare to other dating site. I commend how the staff of ChristianCafe screen the matches to avoid scammers. Thank you for your promotions.
Because you have good promotions and you have less scammers because you take care of your matches.
I chose that particular package because that is all I am willing to pay because the cost is in US$. I am from Canada so it is very costly! Moreover, I am already registered in another site; unfortunately, I don't like their matches so I decided to go back to Christian Cafe. Thank you for giving me a chance to have free trial. I am constantly away/busy, so I hope to find an authentic honest Christian friend in 3 months time. God bless you all at ChristianCafe!
While profiles can be a bit verbose, it's an easy site to navigate and view potential suitors. I wish for two options:
1) To not view those you've viewed before.
2) To not view those who haven't filled out their profile.
A possible third would be to not view those without a picture.
Just sayin'.
I'm not receiving the replies I expect from the so called Christian women on this Christian dating site that you placed in my search groups. I don't particularly like being contacted by Christian women that aren't in my search groups. It's not that I don't love them, it's that they're not in my preferred height range and/or from a foreign Country. I would like to stay anonymous because I know exactly what I'm seeking and most of them are in my search groups and that's all I want to deal with.
My calling is based on Romans 12:7,8 and I want to only support or be involved with true Christian Ministries.
Expect to leave soon; hopefully this time I'll be gone.
It really hasn't been a good one but not because of your website. The Christian women that are educated from a secular or worldly institution don't seem to know how to relate to me as a fellow born again, John 3:3, We are even suppose to love even our enemies, Matt 5:44; how much more the Brethren? Of course, that's why I see the same faces on this site and it's sad for them. We shouldn't expect our Lord GODS' Favor and blessings if we don't live by HIS WORDS.
Because I want to meet a born again, anew, or from above Christian that wants to and tries to live by and be married according to BIBLE Scriptures that are inspired by our Lord GOD, II Tim 3:16,17.
Because I don't expect to be here much longer. Like many other born again Christians, I'm eagerly awaiting the Return of our Lord JESUS CHRIST For HIS Church Bride, Rev 19:7-9; I Cor 15:50-54; I Thess 4:16-18. It shouldn't be much longer because our Lord GOD IS ALLOWING the devil and his followers to almost totally take over the masses of people which don't seem to be aware of this.
I like many of your features but I wish you had a private mode where we can't be seen at all. I know what I'm seeking and I really don't have time to be replying to messages I received that I didn't send at message to. I'm 6'4" and I don't want to get involved with a Christian woman that is shorter than 5'11". The tall Christian sisters/women need tall Christian brothers/men that are available to them before the shorter Christian women scoop them up.
To seek tall born again, anew, or from above Christian sisters/women that want to and try to live by and be married according to BIBLE Scriptures that are inspired by our Lord GOD, II Tim 3:16,17
Because I watch and listen to Watchman that are telling us about current events and a possible time when our Lord JESUS CHRIST WILL RETURN For HIS Church Bride, Rev 19:7,9.
Good for the most part but I would like to be totally anonymous because I know exactly who and what I'm seeking in a Christian sister/woman. I don't want anyone contacting me, for their own good, that I haven't initially sent a message to. It's not that I don't love my Christian sisters/women, it's because of height and their personal relationship with our Lord JESUS CHRIST And HIS WORDS.
Good Christian dating site except for the lack of the total privacy features.
Have been expecting to leave for some time
My experience on your Christian dating site hasn't really been a good one but it's not really your fault. Like another Christian dating site I'm on, I wish you would have age and Country restrictions for people contacting us. I have height preferences but that doesn't seem to matter to some Christian women sending me a message. I do receive several messages from foreign Countries but with a restriction or block, I wouldn't receive messages except for the Countries I'd want to receive messages from.
Because I'm seeking a born again, anew, or from above Christian sister/woman that believes, accepts, wants to, and tries to act on or live by All Scriptures that are inspired by our Lord GOD, II Tim 3:16,17.
I'm into current and end time events according to BIBLE Prophecy and I don't think I'll be here after my subscription expires. Our Lord JESUS CHRISTS' Church Bride may or should be gone close to the end of the August. If not, we keep on studying the Scriptures for more clues as to when we will escape all the horrors that will come on the earth after the Church Bride is gone, Luke 21:36; I Thess 5:3.
Excellent! Very good, thorough profile questions. Unmistakably Christian. Good strong filters in search queries that stick to chosen preferences. Fair pricing. Thank you!
Referred by relative of a friend who had tried it, and was very happy with this site being genuinely Christian.
Got entrapped 6 months at another online dating site that I didn't understand the subscription process until too late. Unfortunately, I knew my prospects there were nil about Day #2. However, I was not allowed out of the contract, so had to wait 6 long months before deleting my account and finding another service.
3 months should be long enough to get a sense of what to expect in the quality of men that are likely to use the site.
Gain trust and grow your business with customer reviews.
ChristianCafe.com is a leading online dating service that specializes in connecting Christian singles seeking for long-term relationships. Found in 1999, so it can be said to be one of the earlier Christian dating site exclusive for Christian daters. It is a Christian religious organization and ministry serving a Christian market, based on Biblical beliefs and teachings.
Christian singles visitors can connect with others as soon as they create a simple profile, after responding to several multiple-choice questions, as well as written questions. By creating a profile, the user receives a generous 10 day FREE trial period (7 days for joining, 3 more for posting photos), where they have the opportunity to participate at no cost to them for the full 10 days.
ChristianCafe.com concept came back in 1998 and in the winter of 1999 it was launched to the World Wide Web, as it was known at the time. At first it was created to connect local singles, but soon it became well known by Christian singles all over North America, UK, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand and all around the globe.
The company has been under the same ownership (Christian brothers Samuel Moorcroft and Philip Moorcroft) till date and unlike most of the Christian dating websites out there, ChristianCafe.com has been always a private company, with its owners being Bible believing Christians, while the competition have been bankrupted or sold to non-Christians companies. So they’re truly Christians matching Christians.
Sorry to hear you've not had as many responses as you'd like. You can't control who decides to write to you, however you can increase your chances of connecting by doing a few things:
1) Post your photos. You're primarily writing women with photos, so we trust you can see the importance of having photos on your profile. If you need our help with this please email your photos to us and we'll post them for you.
2) Ensure you respond to the many women who have written to you. It's important to ensure you respond, even if you don't see yourself as a match.
3) Keep writing to more women who interest you. Not everyone will respond favourably but some will. It's these women you want to connect with! And you only need one Special Match, right? :)
