Price units differ
On 2026-10-20, businesses in this directory published prices in different units on their own sites. These are examples:
- A private registry at 450 USD, one time (Master Matchmakers).
- A consultation at 200 USD and priority membership from 20,000 USD (Matchmakers in the City).
- A course at 17 USD (Men of Action).
- Twelve weeks of one-to-one coaching at 4,985 USD (Dating by Blaine).
A registry fee, a consultation fee, a course, a program and a membership are different things. Do not compare two figures until you know the unit of each.
Ask for the scope in numbers
For each package, ask:
- How many sessions or introductions are included, and how long is each?
- What does the business count as an introduction?
- Who does the work: the person on the website or a team?
- What is not included?
- For a monthly fee, what is the minimum term and how do I stop?
Ask for the answers in writing.
Wide ranges
Some businesses state a range. LUMA states that its fees typically range from 0 to 250,000 USD. Select Date Society states that memberships begin around 100,000 USD. Master Matchmakers lists premium matchmaking from 3,500 to 35,000 USD. A wide range means the price depends on the case. Ask for a written quote for your own case, with the scope and the unit.
Use one currency
Listings use US dollars, pounds and Canadian dollars. Convert every price into one currency before you compare. Use a rate that you can check.
