Whether you're a busy professional, a business owner, or simply someone looking for a serious relationship, our matchmaking service is built around your lifestyle, your values, and your aspirations.
Your matchmaking journey starts with a chat—simple, friendly, and completely obligation-free. Talk to one of our membership advisers and discover the membership that fits you best.
Through a private consultation, we’ll get to know who you are, what you’re looking for, and what truly matters to you in a partner. Our experienced matchmakers listen, understand, and refine the search to find the right match.

At the Platinum membership level we usually get professionals and have Judges, Lawyers, Accountants, University Lecturers, Doctors etc already on the books. But we also get small business owners, entrepreneurs and people in more modest jobs joining at lower levels, as it is such good value and often no more than online dating. So a range of people but one defining characteristic is that they are usually comfortably off.
We always feel that our Platinum membership level represents the best value as it includes working with a professional Headhunter as well as a Senior Matchmaker. It also has a very high degree of confidentiality and priority over the other levels for matching. It is sold with a hold option, to ensure that you do get to enjoy the full benefit of membership.
Yes we take a full range of credit and debit cards and there is no additional charge for paying that way.
Searchmate was founded in 1998 and so has been around longer than many. It was also set up in the era before online dating became popular, so is based on those traditional values of honesty, integrity, fair dealing and good old fashioned customer care and service but all at a great price too, particularly when compared to those London based agencies talking in telephone numbers.
We don’t normally offer instalment facilities, but they can be arranged in special circumstances.
Our service is considered to be much more personal than online dating, so the usual route is to join after a telephone consultation with one of our Personal matchmakers, who will take responsibility and will guide you through the whole of the onboarding process.
