I am happy being a member of this dating site because most of the members are genuine born again Christians. The profile pictures of the members are decent ones reflecting the Christian faith compared to other Christian dating sites. When I see a member dress like non Christians in a dating site, it disturbs my spirits and I quickly move to the next profile.

Meeting people the easy way
August 6, 2021
Updated review

Billing was easy and the price was appealing as compared with other similar sites. I like that once a contact is made the contact remains in your contact list until you actually delete them. I have been on another site where contacts will automatically disappear without any notice. I could never understand why this would happen, but it is frustrating, Christian Cafe is not like that and I really appreciate that.

Difficulties with Christian Cafe
September 3, 2021
Updated review

Difficult to navigate, individuals shown are not from my part of the country or even province, unable to delete people who keep showing up as 100% match which are not the case at all. The matches are quite variable, not reliable, very frustrating to reply to a potential match due to erasing the reply if you navigate away from the page at all.

I sent an email to customer service concerning my ability to search for my perspective criteria. I got no response.

2. Better Search criteria: When you select age, there should be a box to input the preferred age range.

3. "Race" or Ethnicity is important for some who want to date within or around there chosen cultural, ethnic, or racial group. This is the freedom of choice in dating and praying for a mate. When you select the race, ethnicity, or cultural criteria, the result of the selection should be the only results view for that particular instance.

Sneaky Practice
December 3, 2020

Generally, I think the Christian Cafe is a good site - I think those who post profiles tend to be genuine Christians. My complaint is that they automatically sign you up for auto-renewal payments without telling you. It is also not shown when you look at your settings - and it is very hard to find on their web site. This is supposedly a "Christian owned" company. Even secular web sites where I have an account plainly show whether I have auto-renewal for payments. I think the Christian Cafe is being purposefully sneaky about trying to take more money from you - BAD - VERY BAD!

Hi Bill,

Thank you for your kind words about us being a good site and having genuine Christians. We're sorry for your upset about how our renewal system works. We would never renew you without telling you about it. That would be illegal, not to mention unethical. We are Christian owned and operated, and to do anything less wouldn't be befitting of a Christian service.

Our service is unlike any other dating website, in that we offer all newcomers a 10-day free trial, where they can search, browse, contact other members, and receive mail, during their trial (7 days for your profile and 3 more for posting your photo). After this, if they find value in what we offer, they can sign up for a membership.

Our service is subscription-based, the same as signing up for any online service, dating or otherwise (or offline services such as a gym membership, mobile phone service, magazine subscription, etc.). It continues until you cancel it (which you can do at any time).

We inform you of this not only on your membership page. It is also explained in multiple places, so that there can be no doubt about it and how it works.

Before we go into detail about that, let us first say that our purpose is for our members to connect romantically, not to have any upset over how our membership works! We really want to help you connect:-) You didn't tell us your username, but if you provide it to us, we'll give you 2 weeks free time, so that the above becomes water under the bridge:-) The email address to ask for this is at the bottom of our response.

Here are the places on our website about our membership process:

1). It is clearly explained during the initial sign-up process on your membership page, in regular size font, right below where you entered your credit card information:

"By placing your order on the next page you agree to the Terms and Conditions and understand and agree that your credit / debit card will be charged $xx. Xx USD each renewal period until you decide to cancel, at any time, via your contacts page under the help menu."

2). The above paragraph includes a link to The "Terms and Conditions" page, which goes into greater detail about how the subscription service works.

3). It is referenced in the "Thank you for supporting ChristianCafe.com!" message we send to your mailbox, where it says, "You can check your renewal date at any time by going to the membership page."

4). It is explained in detail on the site itself in the "Help section", under "Membership" (Help > Membership).

5). You can control by turning off the automatic renewal process, which is explained in the Help section (Help > Membership > Does ChristianCafe.com have automatic renewals for payments? > change your renewal status).

Again, we're sorry for your experience. However, while we go "above and beyond" in explaining clearly how the system works, we cannot force you to read what we write:-(

Please email us at [email protected] and mention your post here, so we can give you the free time we promised!

Merry Christmas!

We're sorry you found that some(one) weren't polite. The vast majority of our members are decent people. We're not sure where you are located, but if it's outside our main market (the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, & NZ and a few other countries), it will be difficult to connect with someone near you.

After considering the above, you can email us directly at mailing at christiancafe dot com. Please include more details for us so we can look into this for you further. If you do email us, please also let us know the criteria you'd like for your search and we'll work with you to set it up.

Tks!

It happens so often that i am forced to write this review. It keeps on saying that site not available in your area but we have some great offer(which actually is to join some other website owned by them) they want that a member joins and pays for two sites owned by them and this happens most of the times i try to login. I didn't expect that from someone who runs a site with a Christian name. I wont ever be a member of this site again.

Sorry for the trouble. We're not available in some regions, esp. Areas with high concentrations of scammers. When you see that message, there is a link to other websites. These aren't affiliated with us but are offered as a way for you to find someone on another dating website.

Start out by saying I was frustrated with this site as I had a billing issue regarding the auto renewal program they use. It overdrew my account one night even when I thought I canceled it a few weeks prior. I emailed management and they gave me back the money that was taken out of the account. I was very, very happy. It was the right thing to do. The women I talked to on that site were very nice and totally Christian. I enjoyed speaking to them who lived from around the country. I would totally recommend this site to young men who are looking for that special kind of woman, and who also may not have the dating skills you think you would need to make one like you, as you can make yourself more desirable by practicing on women who are your type, yet won't have to go through the embarrassment of getting shutdown over the internet. Thanks for reading :)
