Introduction
Match.com is an online dating platform that enables you to connect with singles in your preferred location and within your local area. To register, just fill out all the required details and edit your profile later. However, you need to include your location when signing up, but you can always edit this when you move to another location or when you prefer to look for singles in other places. If you have just moved to another area, read this helpful guide for the step-by-step instructions on how to update your location on Match.com.
Sign in to Your Account
Enter your login credentials and click Sign In. If you've forgotten your account password, just click on the Forgot Password link on the sign-in page. Enter your email address to receive the password reset email from Match.com. After resetting your password, go back to the login page with your new login credentials.
Tap on Your Profile
Click the Pencil Icon Next to Your Location
Edit Your Location
Change the location under "I Live Near" and make sure that you select "Where I Live" to update your new location.
Click Done
Your new location is only saved when you click Done.
Note that you can also edit the username and email address associated with your account, but in order to do so, you need to contact Match.com Support. The age on your profile can also be edited, but you won't be able to edit this on your profile. You have to send an email to resolutions@support.match.com if you accidentally entered an incorrect age or birth date.
Check the Updated Location
After saving your new location, refresh the page and check if the new location is now displayed on your profile page.
You can also edit other details on your profile page, including your age, photos, interests, background, and lifestyle. Just click on the pencil icon next to the section you want to edit and update it. Don't forget to click Done to save the changes.
If you want more members to see you, the profile page also includes a Boost Me feature. With this feature, your profile is displayed on top for about one hour, helping you find more matches. To take advantage of this offer, click on the Boost Me link and fill out your payment information, and click Buy Now.
For questions regarding billing, paid features, and searching and matching, feel free to visit the FAQ page on Match.com. You'll find a ton of information there on how to use the website and whether you can take advantage of a free trial.
