Zoosk vs Match - Which is the better dating site to find true love?

Carousel is Zoosk’s main matchmaking feature. It presents you the members through a roulette, who you can send flirts to or skip if you’re not into them.

When you do things such as send a message, accept a connection, or express interest in someone, Zoosk’s Behavioral Matchmaking™ engine learns more about your preferences. The site then uses this information to help introduce you to other users who it thinks you’ll be interested in.

The more you use Zoosk, the more information it has to help recommend better matches and SmartPick™ introductions. Make sure to respond before time runs out or else your SmartPick™ introduction will disappear.

Zoosk collects data on your activity to give you insights regarding who you like, who likes you, and your dating style. You can use these dating insights to learn about what type of people you’re likely to attract, what you tend to have in common with the people you’re attracted to, and much more!

Adding someone as a connection lets him or her know you’re interested in them. Anytime you send a smile or a heart and they respond back, they automatically become a connection. Labeling someone as a connection is like putting them on your ‘Favorites’ list.

Super Send allows you to send a flirty message to many people at once. Zoosk provides you with some pre-written messages so you wouldn’t have to think about what to say.

Boost increases your visibility to make even more connections. It is a great way to get noticed by other Zoosk members, but it is a paid feature.

This is the newest and timely feature of Match. It gives the users the chance to set their preferred dating styles with all the details and their preferences. This feature was released during the time of the Covid-19 pandemic. It aims to protect the members and keep them safe from the virus when they meet each other. Dress codes and favorite date venues are covered by this feature.

Some people are not good at coming up with good conversation topics. Thanks to this feature, there are tons of suggested conversation points and ice breakers that they can use.

"Boost" is Match dating’s add-on special feature that most people like. Availing this feature puts your profile as the top suggestion on ‘Matches’ and ‘Discover’ for one full hour.

"Reverse Matches" is a list of who you are not compatible with. You can choose to browse through your "Reverse Matches" list and interact with them if you want something different.

"Likes" is a tab that lists all the Match members you like, as well as the members who like you. Seeing who likes you is a paid feature.

"MatchPhone" is a premium feature where you can do voice calls to another member. Match.com assigns you with a custom number so you can do voice calls anonymously.

Match.com has a "Match Dating Guarantee" that offers you a free six-month Match membership if you don’t find a match within the duration of your membership. This is only available for members who subscribe to at least six-month membership package.

To ensure a member's safety when they go out and meet their match, Match.com included a Date Check In feature. This safety function allows a member to designate three emergency contacts. These selected contacts will receive details such as the date's name, time, and location of the meeting. During the date, Match.com will send automated messages asking the member if they're feeling uncomfortable or unsafe. If they select "Yes," the dating site will send an SOS message to the emergency contacts.

Members get to interact on a personal level with Vibe Check, an in-app video chat feature by Match. To ensure that both members are willing, the Vibe Check will only be accessible if members have already matched and conversed. A black video icon will appear at the bottom of the messages; once pressed, a request will be sent o the other party. A Match member may choose to join or decline a Vibe Check invite.

Have fun and intimate virtual dates with your matches using this feature. You can talk to them using the platform's video calling feature.

Through this matching feature, members will receive one match per week based on their andswers to a number of serious questions about their dating and life goals. This feature aimed to find meaningful connections and dates ultimately avoiding ghosting instances among matched members.
