Paktor could well be one of the top Asian dating apps out there, if only for its lack of membership at the moment. It is fairly young so that is understandable, but international members looking to date singles from the East are better off using other sites.

Who is Paktor for and not for?

  • Asian singles who like to chat and meet strangers online
  • For people who are looking for friendships with their Asian types
  • For singles who only want to date Asians
  • If you're searching for erotic adventures and casual encounters
  • Not a place for cheaters seeking affairs
  • People who are not into dating Asians
