Compare requirements, not promises.

Local features, prices and eligibility can vary. A platform’s interaction model is not evidence of its local member quality or your chance of a reply. The profiles distinguish documented controls from the questions those controls create.

The Match profile uses the US help center; readers elsewhere should check the regional service. See our research method for scope, or open the comparison tool to examine two records side by side.
