THE GOOD:
- The registration is simple and does not take much time. It’s a several-step process that allows to start finding Asian female users inside the service.
- Cupid Media doesn’t produce low-quality products. The standards of quality in this service are higher than among other generic dating services that promise you to meet real Asian women.
- Reasonable prices. Costs are not too steep and basically everyone coold afford at least a gold subscription.
THE BAD:
- No dedicated mobile application for iOS and Android. We haven’t found the traces of it at the website, and not even in the App Store or Google Play.
- You can read the messages only from the premium users as a free user. It fairly limits your opportunities for finding a romantic connection with an Asian girl.
- Some profiles are bots. This fact points to a relatively fraudolent scheme this dating platforms resorts to.

How it Works
On the main screen, you can find the traditional setup of the landing pages from Cupid Media. The smiling Asian girl like in other JapanCupid reviews speaks for herself, calling you to register immediately. Choose the language suitable for you in the right upper corner near the Login button. After that, you can either log in with an existing account or register as a new user. To do that, hit the button with the inscription “Discover 100% of Singles”.
After that, the popup modal will appear on JapanCupid.com. The service asks you to fill some information about you to get started. You have to provide the following details that will be on your profile after registration:
- First Name
- Your Gender
- The Gender of Person You Want to Date
- Age
- Your Email
- Password for Logging in
Alternatively, you can join JapanCupid via Facebook – they have a third-party integration for that. When you’re ready, press the “View Singles Now” button.
Voila, you can now check on the singles online who want to have a new romantic connection with someone. Some profiles look awkward, but that’s the Japanese dating website, so keep that in mind if you wish to date an oriental girl.
You can tailor your search according to personal preferences by filling the fields like on the screenshot below. You could get a very specific list of women in a province of your search or within a certain radius around.
Audience
As you can see, the audience has become very diverse in the past few years. It’s strange but we could find people even from Sweden there. Sounds a bit far from Japan. Rumors say that the website has a substantial percent of fake and fraudulent accounts. We advise you not to provide any personal data to the users who explicitly ask for it. Unfortunately, online catfishing isn’t that rare these days, and JapanCupid isn’t the safest haven in the context of online dating out there.
It would be a huge disappointment that the bride you were chatting with for so long could end up being an ordinary fake who was interested only in your pocket or personal data. Not all users use the verification system provided by CupidMedia, so be careful and think twice when sending something deeply intimate.
Pricing
The price jumps between three types of membership. The model of monetization is the same as many other Cupid Media products. For the gold membership, you’re getting a few extra features on top of the standard free package. Platinum membership guarantees complete access to what JapanCupid offers. Once again, Cupid Media hasn’t invented the wheel in terms of the financial model.
The prices for Gold and Platinum are the following:
Gold
- 1 Month – $34.99
- 3 Months – $69.98
- 12 Months – $149.99
Platinum
- 1 Month – $29.98
- 3 Months – $59.99
- 12 Months – $119.98
Below is the chart we took from the JapanCupid website to get a better understanding of what you’re going to pay for.
Safety
In terms of protection of scam and fraud, the service has a dedicated terms of use page with guidelines on how to avoid being catfished. However, the rules are very average and not that informative – the website won’t be responsible if someone steals something from you.
Nevertheless, in terms of financial safety, Cupid Media makes a great job. They have all the modern payment systems included to make the transactions safe and verified. You can use the following payment methods:
- Credit or Debit Cards
- PayPal
- Yandex Money
- WebMoney
