About us

datemymate ™ is a new, fresh and fun approach to online dating for kiwis. We're home-grown and reckon we know how to help you have a great time. We don't think dating should be a lonely experience so we have asked your friends along for the ride. Our philosophy is that our friends know us better than anyone, so why not let them do the talking for us?

Whether you are the single one or you're signing up a single mate, everyone on the site has to come recommended. But it's not only you who has all the fun; your friends can get involved as well. Mates can play matchmaker and pick and choose possible dates for you.

We are here to inject some fun and excitement into the online dating scene in NZ. Who's with us?

A few things we pride ourselves on:

  • We're always available on old-fashioned email - team@datemymate.co.nz
  • We're not hiding our members from public view. You shouldn't have to sign up to the site just to read a full profile. Take a test drive before you dive in.
  • Supporting our product to a world-class and industry leading standard. If you notice any bugs, or something doesn't work right on the site then please use our feedback feature.
  • Our site should be easy to use. If it's not -- please tell us!
  • We want to create a safe environment for everyone. That's why we approve everything first -- no creeps! Please report an abuse. We want an honest and safe site. Remember users will eventually find out if you're not a millionaire or you don't have a PhD!
  • Anyone can join, you just need a recommendation.
  • We love hearing stories of hook-ups, great dates, bad dates and happily-ever-afters. So please, if you do have a story - email us!
