The company's reputation is mixed, with notable strengths in its user-friendly website design and the potential for meaningful connections among massage enthusiasts. Many users appreciate the platform's ability to facilitate exchanges and the community aspect it fosters. However, significant concerns arise regarding the high subscription costs, limited member engagement, and the prevalence of inactive or fake profiles, which hinder effective communication. Additionally, customer service has been criticized for its lack of professionalism and responsiveness. Overall, while the concept is promising, improvements in user experience and support are essential for enhancing customer satisfaction.

I have been a member of this site for over 4 years, and have met many genuinely lovely people from here, who are all interested in the same thing. Meeting up to exchange a relaxing massage.
It's a safe space that allows you to get in touch with like minded people.
Would recommend it. 5 stars
I have been a member of Massage Exchange for some time now. The site is laid out well. Have quite a lot of success in meeting over members too. Well worth a look at yourself.
I have been a member for several years and have had lots of fun and relaxing massage exchanges with some great guys.
Member since 2011 Massage Exchange has enabled me to extend my experience, knowledge and skills. I been able to meet some interesting people that I would not otherwise had the opportunity due to my busy shedule.
Very expensive site for what you get. Many times you receive emails and after you reply your reply is unread because the massage exchange site wants more money. I will not be renewing my subscription after it expires. I would not recommend the massage exchange wedsite to anyone.
As my title says really,, the benefit does not out weigh the cost,- in my experience.
Maybe they need to look at lowering the cost and increasing membership,,
I have been a member for a month and no partners for exchange as most of the ads months old and only one potential partner and she is 70 miles away and not available. Maybe some areas with more interest but not in Lansing, Michigan area

In 3 years only about 5 massages, a waste of money for me. It could be my fault, but for me no more.
Been a gold member for 3 months total waste of my money, e, mailed a lot of members & they don't reply back, won't be renewing my mambership.
We offer a Guarantee. If you've been unsuccessful, contact our support staff.
Have been a paying Gold member for 3yrs now. I enjoy because it connects me w/ like-minded MT's in my area... If you just go w/ any body for an exchange, however, it is REALLY a crap-shoot as to what yer gonna get, more often than not it'll NOT be a good experience. Being fully trained & licensed, here, I've learned to look@ the "Experience" section of profiles & whether or not someone has attended school or rcv'd training. Those folk are more bankable to a good experience!
As a qualified massage therapist, I find that MassageExchange is by far the best way to meet other massage therapists who wish to exchange massage without payment. It is also a good way to find unqualified massage enthusiasts who wish to practice their skills. The site is very user-friendly, and the staff are extremely helpful and efficient. I get a weekly summary showing members who have viewed my profile, and I get a weekly email showing new members who live near me. In the last few years I have met so many interesting people through this site, some of whom are now good friends who meet me for regular massage exchange in my home.
Each exchange I've had has been a great experience. I've learned from each man even when they did not have professional training. It takes some time to get used to how the site works but overall it's been good. Still run into guys who never respond to first email contacts for some reason. I always respond even when I don't want to pursue an exchange with a particular man.
I feel much more comfortable finding a massage partner at massageexchange than using other methods. The people I've met have all been very nice and I felt very safe.
I found MassageExchange by accident. I have been a member for over two years now. As a keen enthusiast and student of massage for many years it is a great way to develop skills and learn from others. I have had no problems on the site and have found most users to be genuine lovers of massage as well. I would recommend a membership, the cost of which is easily made up for with the number of great and free massage exchanges I have had
The site forces you in to paying to really get anywhere. If it was a more modest fee I wouldn't mind, but what you pay for what you get doesn't add up to value.
This site is great for those who enjoy massage. I usually average at least one massage exchange a week. I have learned that everyone has their own techniques when giving massages and have learned several that I now incorporate into my own massages. Sometimes you need to be proactive in contacting people and coordinating schedules but patience is usually rewarded. Some are better than others but all have been good. No bad experiences and have met some really nice and interesting people. I have found that it is important to be fairly specific in your profile. Some do use this site as a "hook up" site but be clear with your boundaries and it is not a problem.
I found the site excellent and have made many massage friends, some very capable.
This website is amazing! The idea of connecting people for unpaid massages cannot be matched. Unfortunately people found another use of this website as finding a partner for mutual touch, even sexual activities. And hence more than 90% of the members are males, gay people are among them more than you think. I personally meet +100 males and 4 females in just a few months of my subscription and got great massages but not many good enough to make it up for the bad ones that I got. Suddenly, most of the male members from here are looking to meet another male and experience mutual touching or sex related activities which spoils the meaning of a massage. Also a lot of lying about the age and weight, even fake pictures or very old.
I have met and exchanged massages with well over two dozen people I have met through massageexchange.com, both locally and as I traveled. The site is helpful, respectful and protective of its members. While any site, one needs to be cautious about whom you meet, I have found primarily good, down to earth, genuine people here--very few flakes to deal with. I have tried several other sites designed to help people meet for massage exchanges, etc. and this is the only one that I actually had luck with, met real people, enjoyed myself but felt fairly safe too. I would highly recommend this site for those into meeting others for learning and exchanging massage.
I've been a member of MassageExchange for the past 10 years. I haven't always been active but when I have I've met some great people and exchanged many massages. Like any site it takes an effort to make contact and the time to meet. The user interface is intuitive and provides helpful email based notifications. There are a number of users that are not active so you don't always get your emails read or responded to. I have a passion for massage and plan to get my certification later this year. I've learned from several of the members and have established a few long time friendships.

Answer: How recently active a member is, is reported on every profile. The statement in question means the last time the member logged in was 12 months ago. More than that, it means the member is not very recently active and their account will be slated for removal soon. In other words, there's no harm in contacting this member, but just don't hold your breath waiting for a reply.

A subscription is all that's necessary to communicate. The comment about "wanting more money" makes no sense since there's nothing else needed beyond a subscription. Member should contact our support staff to receive assistance.
