The Short Version: The web has a dating site for just about everything these days. No matter where you live or what type of people you love, there’s a niche community out there for you. If you’re in New Zealand and looking for a date, you can sign up for a free membership with NZDating to get your flirt on. On this premium dating site, a community of diverse New Zealanders (aka Kiwis) come to meet new people and form lasting relationships. The site’s streamlined search functions and accessible message boards offer plenty of opportunities to find the person (or people) of your dreams. Whether you’re looking for a new friend, a one night stand, a threesome, or a lifelong relationship, NZDating gives you a secure and vibrant setting to start chatting.

Paulette felt skeptical about online dating, but signed up for NZDating because she liked how it catered to New Zealand singles like her. “I really only joined for a bit of a laugh,” she said in her testimonial. She chatted with and dated many guys before the right one caught her eye.

John and Paulette had a pleasant chat and exchanged photos. Unfortunately, the conversation fizzled before they could meet. Months passed, and they both moved on. Though, neither forgot that almost connection.

One night Paulette went for drinks with a man she had met on NZDating. He seemed nice but nothing special. Her gaze was wandering when she spied a familiar face. John was on a date at the same bar. “For some reason, our eyes met, and it was instant recognition,” she recalled. “It was like a moment stood still as our eyes met, and we both knew this was a special person.”

Just like that, John came back into her life. He emailed her that night, and they took up right where they had left off. The spark was undeniable this time, and they went on a dinner date to seal the deal. Two and a half years later, Paulette and John are living together in a house they built for their new family.

“We are very happy together and have so much in common,” Paulette wrote. “We have a heart and soul connection and the most open and honest communication I have ever had with a male partner. ”

On NZDating.com, New Zealanders enjoy a friendly place to make new connections.

NZDating brings couples, like Paulette and John, together in a dating community intended for New Zealanders (aka Kiwis). Whether a single man in Hawkes Bay or a single woman in Canterbury, anyone 18 or older can join the dating site and start chatting for free.

The site’s simple chat features, easy-to-use search tools, and local member events engage daters on the web and make it easy to meet new people of all backgrounds, education levels, and orientations. NZDating can help members find a new friend, a hot date, a long-term relationship, or a fast hookup. There’s even an option to sign up as a couple (male/female, male/male, or female/female) so online swingers can have some fun of their own!

Every day hundreds of members come to NZDating in search of compatible mates and make fast friends in private chats and active message boards full of singles and couples living in New Zealand.

Free Membership Offers Immediate Access to Flirty Conversations

New Zealand singles (and couples) over the age of 18 must have a valid email address to sign up to NZDating. You simply input your name, location,  email address, birthdate, and what you’re hoping to find (relationships, friendships, or adult encounters) to get started. The site only allows one profile per member — no double dipping!

After NZDating has verified your email address with a confirmation code, you can start filling out your profile and browsing the site for dates immediately.

NZDating gives daters a variety of search options so finding a date is fast and simple.

Singles who know what they want can set specific dating criteria in the site’s Match Settings and go to the Perfect Match page to view member profiles who meet that criteria. Only interested in dating someone within a certain age range? A specific marital status? Or specific ethnicity? This simple tool lets you weed out people who don’t meet your criteria and only see matches who are perfect for you.

Another fun and free feature on the site is the Swipe Match, which shows you a profile picture and basic information (name, age, and location) that you can choose to either like or dislike. Free members have a Like Limit (you earn one “like” for every half hour of being online) so use each thumbs-up wisely!

As a secure dating site, NZDating won’t post your personal details on Swipe Match or any advertisement without your say-so. A new member must submit a profile to the team for approval before anyone on the site can see it. However, even if your profile isn’t yet live on the site, you can still search through adverts, play Swipe Match, read your horoscope, and browse community events on the site to get a feel for what it has to offer.

Looking for even more premium features? You can upgrade to Gold Membership to get all the benefits of a “serious dating service for sincere Kiwis” for up to one year. Gold Members appear ahead of free members in the search results (in bold print) and can add up to 40 photos to their profiles. You’ll also get access to profile stats that show you how many members have viewed your profile.

According to the website, “While [a] NZDating membership is free, [a] NZDating Gold Membership dramatically increases your profile visibility on NZDating, making sure you are noticed and taken more seriously by other NZDating members.”

Plus Straightforward Search Listings & Fun Daily Horoscopes

On NZDating, there are many avenues to short-term and long-term connections. Straightforward search features help singles and couples browse by age, sexuality, location, star sign, religion, and other important personal details. To find your special someone, you can conduct a quick search or a full search — or you can browse by who’s online or track down a specific username.

While you browse profiles, NZDating protects all users’ privacy and sensibilities. You can set your content filter to “cautious” to censor profiles with inappropriate photos or bios.

If you ever get tired of searching for partners, you can take a mental break by reading your daily horoscope on the dating site. NZDating offers horoscope readings through NZCity and encourages members to check them out — and maybe post a quote or two in your profile!

The NZDating Messageboard separates threads by topic so people can find one another. You can go to the Tech Talk thread to join a discussion about issues with the site or visit the Relationships Thread to muse about relationship etiquette. The Adult Thread is a particularly racy place for daters to trade innuendos and some graphic content. From brainstorming icebreakers to listing the worst places to get horny, these threads definitely get members talking!

NZDating members can get to know one another in an open forum on the message boards.

Online chitchat is all well and good, but many online daters are eager to take such interaction IRL. To help, NZDating offers a Members Events page where members can sift through featured events ranging from an intimate picnic to a popular NZD Christmas party. Gold members organize the events and all members are welcome to attend.

Whether you want a party buddy with whom to hit the night scene or a music lover to accompany you to a concert, these events are a great portal to meet fellow Zealanders who share your interests.

Making Thousands of Romantic New Zealanders Happy

NZDating has matched thousands of couples in happy relationships. Its many  success stories give hope to young romantics, as well as disillusioned daters, that the site can actually work and lead to meaningful relationships between New Zealanders of all ages. Couples gush in lengthy testimonials about how they’ve found the love of their lives on the dating site and tell many touching, unique, and remarkable stories about deep bonds made online.

The NZDating community can change people’s lives. Some couples who met on the site have even brought a baby into the world. “To add to our happiness and little NZDating family,” wrote username VanillaAngel in her testimonial, “we are due to become parents in just seven days time.”

“I fell in love with this man as strongly as he fell in love with me. Without NZD, there is more than likely no way we could have ever met, and we could have missed out on so much.” –Vanilla__angel and Forestblue, a married couple who met on NZDating

One member wrote that she was ready to give up

on dating after being on NZDating for two and a half years. She thought, “There was nobody out there for me. All plonkers, fat, bald, and boring. I can forgive bald… but boring is unforgivable.”

After a long series of misses, she finally met the one for her. Andrew was a laid-back 40-year-old with an understated but promising profile. On their date at a coffee shop, she was completely blown away and entranced by him. “The eyes!” she wrote emphatically. “They were very clear and a melting deep olive color. And, with those eyes, he looked right into me like he was ready and open to discover who I was.”

The single New Zealander knew she wanted a second date, so she sped home and messaged him, “At last, a man with integrity!” He answered back, “When can I see you again?” Three years later, she reports they are still together and very much in love — thanks to NZDating.

On NZDating, Single Kiwis Find Friendship & Dating Prospects

NZDating provides a hot spot for the New Zealand dating community. From message board banter to members-only events, the site helps daters of all backgrounds come together and find common ground. Singles and couples can use the dating site to browse for partners by certain criteria and connect with the right guy, gal, or couple in moments.

Kiwis hailing from all corners of New Zealand log in to NZDating to chat, flirt, and date in a safe online space. A Gold Membership can further enhance your dating experience on the site with premium features like unlimited likes and sleek search functions. Plus, NZDating prominently displays Gold Members in search results to attract more eyes and messages to these adverts. You can try out the site and chat with singles for free for an unlimited amount of time to see if it’s worth upgrading.

Thousands of people have met their significant others on NZDating, a simple dating site tailored to New Zealanders. The clean profile setup, easy search options, and many other fun features make the website an ideal place to mingle and forge lasting connections.

“I am very grateful to NZDating for bringing us together,” Paulette wrote in her testimonial. “I continue to encourage friends of mine who still belong to never give up hope because you never know who or what is around the corner.”
