Dating built for the over 60s, and nobody else

Most dating sites are built for the young, then leave older members to make the best of a service that was never really meant for them. We thought the over 60s deserved better than an afterthought. 60 Singles is built for one group of people and one only: singles over 60 who'd like some genuine company again, whether that's friendship, a companion for days out, or a real second chance at love.

That focus changes everything. When everyone shares a stage of life, the awkwardness falls away. Nobody needs the grandchildren explained, or why some weekends are spoken for, or what it means to have been married a long time. You're among people who simply understand, and that's the foundation everything else is built on.

What a dedicated over-60s community gives you

A site made specifically for your age group isn't just a nicer idea. It genuinely improves your chances, because it's designed around what matters to people over 60 rather than people a third of your age.

• People your own age, with similar goals. No wading through a much younger crowd. Everyone here is over 60 and looking for connection, so a better chance of meeting someone you truly click with.
• Easy to use, however comfortable you are online. Clear, simple and uncluttered, with no confusing gimmicks. If you can send an email, you can use 60 Singles.
• Secure, private messaging. Chat safely within the site, with your real name and contact details never shown. You decide who you talk to and how quickly things move.
• A genuine community feel. Beyond one-to-one dating, our chat groups and interest groups gather people around what they enjoy, from walking and gardening to travel, history and music. It's often where friendship starts, and companionship grows.
• Helpful support from real people. A friendly team you can actually reach when you need a hand, by chat, phone or message.

A premium community, kept genuine on purpose

60 Singles is a premium dating site, and that's a deliberate choice that works in your favour. Anyone can join free and look around, but our fuller features are available to paying members. That paid membership isn't just about extra tools. It's one of the most effective ways there is to keep a dating community genuine.

The reason is simple. Scammers and time-wasters rely on free, throwaway access. When membership carries a real subscription, the people who aren't serious tend not to bother, which keeps the community weighted heavily towards genuine people looking for a genuine connection. Paying members also unlock unlimited messaging, our private chat and interest groups, advanced search and more, so you get both a safer community and a better experience. You can see exactly what's included on our membership and pricing page, and the full comparison is below.

Everyone starts with a free account. VIP and VIP+ open up the features that help you get the most from the community. Here's how the three compare.

Safe by design, and held to real standards

Safety matters more later in life, and we treat it as a feature rather than a footnote. Profiles can be verified, our team and technology moderate the community actively, your privacy is protected by default, and there's always a real person to turn to. You can read exactly how it all works on our safety page, which also includes a practical guide to safe online dating.

We're also a proud member of the Online Dating and Discovery Association, the global body that sets and champions safety and trust standards across the dating industry. Membership means we follow, and help uphold, recognised best practice for protecting people online. It's a commitment we're glad to be held to.
