Frequently Asked Questions

Ah, the FAQ page. Where the word 'frequent' typically comes into question. But we'll try our best, and if you don't find what you're looking for, definitely contact us.

"Why Dateafied? I mean, why you guys?"

Well, the copout/easy answer is that we are the first and only company that offers you the opportunity to verify yourself, which is one of the best ways to stand out and attract women. 

In this age of online dating, social media, mobile hookup apps, and pretty much all things digital, being able to show that you've already been vetted through an accurate background check will give the other person peace of mind and that you're worth meeting.

With the rampant truth-stretching and dangers of online dating that's become so common on dating profiles, being able to show you are who you say you are will help you stand out and give you that competitive edge in the dating field. 

And akin to a college that's been accredited or a business that's been inspected by the Better Business Bureau, you will have a digital certification that you can use wherever and however you like.

"I'm frustrated with online dating, can you help?" 

Dating, and online dating specifically, can certainly be frustrating. We've definitely been there. Spending an inordinate amount of time tweaking your profile and searching for the perfect person - with no payoff is pretty much the definition of frustration.

From our own experience, not having someone to go out with and do all the fun things you want, takes that frustration to another level. 

So, being Date Certified can boost your dating profile, which in turn will help you meet more people, and ultimately put you in control of your dating happiness.

"If I submit my materials, am I guaranteed to be certified?"

Nope. You must have a clean background. That means having zero infractions on your criminal history and you must be single (in whichever form that might be: separated, divorced, etc.). 

And since we have to go through the entire process of inspecting each person's background thoroughly, we can not offer a refund. So, if you're questioning whether you'll pass, please hold off until you're positive you will pass.

"Will this be the end to catfishing?"

Sadly, no. Since it's so easy for a complete stranger to pretend to be anyone, catfishing will be hard to eradicate. Back in 2011 (sorry that's the most recent data we have), catfishing caused $50.4 million in loses.

It was reported that there were 15 complaints every day. So, that's about 5,500 each year with about $9,000 lost by each victim.

But you can do your part - and be rewarded for it. By verifying yourself, you'll be offering peace of mind while separating yourself from your competition, who could be, well, anyone.

"Do you guarantee I'll date more?"

Nope. Nothing in life is a guarantee, and getting Date Certified is no exception.

A quick analogy might help explain. Picture two colleges. One is accredited and has passed a series of quality tests, and the other hasn't. It's not guaranteed that the accredited college will get more prospects, but if you had to choose, which one would you pick?

"Is this certificate just for my dating profile or can I use it anywhere else?"

It's totally up to you. Once you're Date Certified, you'll receive a digital certificate with your name and the date you were certified.

So, you can include the digital certificate with your dating profile description, as well as any social media or mobile dating sites you use. 

You can also include a link to the Dateafied Members page, so others can see your specific information.

"Is my information secure?"

One-hundred percent secure, since nothing is kept or saved. Once you upload your documents, and we complete the verification process, all information is promptly expunged. 

"Is Dateafied just for men?"

Nope, not at all. Our research has shown that men (typically) are the pursuers and are looking for ways to meet women online. 

On the other-hand, competition for in-demand guys is equally fierce, so females can certainly benefit from improving their dating profile as well. Guys tend to shy away from drama and deal-breaker-level surprises.

"How does Dateafied answer - how to attract women?"

First off, research is showing that we’re all basically looking for someone like us who we get along with.

And evolutionary speaking, in our modern era (compared to even 100 years ago), women are no longer as interested in the uber-masculine guys to father and protect her offspring.

Instead, traits like thoughtfulness, sense of humor and dependability are quickly becoming more in-demand.

So, if you’ve passed the test and have been Date Certified, chances are good that you’re a catch. And now you have a chance to proudly communicate how great you are to the world. That kind of confidence is attractive to any woman.
