# Postcode Match

> Postcode Match is a UK dating site that starts with your postcode area, so you see local date ideas, guides and single people near you rather than one long national list. Every photo is checked by a person, and members who pass an ID check get a Verified badge. Joining and browsing are free.

Postcode Match is part of High Intent Media Inc and runs on the DatingPartners.com platform.

## Facts
- Is Postcode Match free? Joining, making a profile and browsing are free. A membership is needed to read and reply to messages, and you see the options before you pay anything.
- How do I know people are real? Every photo is checked by a person. Members who pass an ID check carry a Verified badge, so you can see who has been checked.

- Does it cover Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland? Yes. Postcode Match covers the whole UK. Scotland and Wales also have their own sister sites, scottish-dating.co.uk and welshdating.co.uk.
- Can I look at a different area if I am moving? Yes. You can change the postcode area you search, so you can get to know people and places before you move.
- Where do I report a romance scam? In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, report to Report Fraud at reportfraud.police.uk or on 0300 123 2040. In Scotland, call Police Scotland on 101. Also use the report button on the profile.
