C-Date
How do the matching categories work on C-Date?
When you set up your profile, you pick tags like 'Casual Dates' or 'Flings' to clearly state what you're looking for. You can then filter your search by these tags, so you only see people who want the same thing, which eliminates the awkward 'what are you looking for?' conversation.
What is the 'Spark' feature and how does it work?
The Spark feature is a quick tap you can send to another user to show interest without having to write a message. It's lower pressure than crafting an opening line and helps you break the ice easily.
Why am I getting notifications saying someone is checking me out, and can I see who it is for free?
Those notifications are designed to encourage you to upgrade to Premium, as you cannot see who checked you out on the free version. It's a common frustration, and the only way to see the person is to pay for a subscription.
Why can't I send messages or use the Spark feature as much as I want on the free version?
The free version is intentionally limited to encourage upgrades. You get a very small number of Sparks per day and cannot initiate any chats without a Premium subscription, which can feel restrictive.
How does C-Date compare to Tinder for casual dating?
Unlike Tinder, where you often have to guess someone's intentions, C-Date is upfront about being for casual dating only. Its matching categories let you filter by what you want, so you waste less time on mismatched expectations. However, C-Date's free version is much more limited than Tinder's.
