A free dating site to connect through your interests
Matchin — Free dating site for shared interests
Dating, friendship, sport and leisure: discover Matchin in your language.
Matchin is a free dating site: create your profile, meet people nearby and chat without a paid subscription after a mutual match.
Free conversations after a mutual match
Sign up, create your profile, get mutual matches and chat — all completely free.
With Discovery, both people must send their first message within 48 hours of matching. After that, you can keep chatting without a paid subscription while the match remains active.
Discovery allows up to 2 active universes across dating, friendship, sport and leisure, within 1–100 km. Limits: unlimited PASS actions and 30 Likes per UTC day, resetting at midnight UTC.
Getting started
Create your profile, choose your interests and adjust your preferences. Discover suggested profiles, chat when interest is mutual and explore activity ideas nearby. Profiles and events depend on your area; no meeting is guaranteed.
Meet people through shared interests
A shared interest gives you a starting point for a conversation: a concert, a hike, a film or a trip you would like to take. Choose Dating to express your intention, then add the activities you would like to share to your profile. You can also choose Friendship, Sport or Leisure depending on the connections you are looking for.
Read the suggested profiles and take time to understand what each person is looking for. A common interest can help start a conversation, but does not guarantee a relationship.
