Dating in New York: questions and answers

How do I find singles in my part of New York?

Every town in New York, from New York to the smallest, has its own page with the people within 30 miles of it — start with yours. New York is home to more than 15 million people. You set the distance yourself in the filters, from 5 miles up to 300 miles — or choose “Any distance”.

Is online dating in New York free on YADate?

Yes, completely. Nothing on YADate is paid, in New York or anywhere else: you can browse, like, write first and send voice messages or gifts without a subscription or credits. The only limits are daily caps against spam, such as 40 new conversations a day.

Are the profiles in New York real?

There are no fake profiles here: YADate doesn't create them or chat on anyone's behalf. Photos go live only after a moderator approves them, every account confirms an email address, and reports are reviewed by people. Anyone who asks for money or pushes you to move to another app straight away is worth reporting.
