How We Make Money
DateScout is a free resource supported by affiliate partnerships. When you click links on our site — including "Visit App," "Try Free," and other call-to-action buttons that use our /go/ redirect system — you may be directed to a third-party dating app or service. If you sign up for or purchase a subscription through these links, we may earn a referral commission at no extra cost to you.
Editorial Independence
Our affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content, ratings, or recommendations. We review and compare dating apps based on our own research, hands-on testing, and analysis. Apps that pay us commissions do not receive preferential treatment in our reviews, comparisons, or rankings. We frequently recommend free apps and features that generate no revenue for us.
Our editorial team operates independently from our business partnerships. Writers and editors are not compensated based on affiliate performance, and they are not informed which apps have affiliate agreements when creating content.
What We Are Not
DateScout is not a dating service. We do not create user profiles, facilitate matches, store personal dating preferences, or provide matchmaking services. We are a content and review website that helps you make informed decisions about which dating apps and strategies are right for you.
Your Trust Matters
We believe transparency builds trust. If you ever feel that our content is biased or that an affiliate relationship has influenced a recommendation, please let us know at [email protected]. Our reputation depends on honest, helpful content — and we take that seriously.
