There are a lot of sites designed for meeting people worldwide, as well as a lot of sites where men can choose among lots of profiles created by young and attractive foreign women from Asia, Latin America, or Europe only. 

The Wingtalks dating site is nothing like that. Moreover, it’s nearly the opposite of such sites. But does it mean it’s worth joining? I decided to find it out so I joined the community and then wrote this Wingtalks review.

How much does Wingtalks cost?

Wingtalks.com is a freemium dating site. There are quite many free features, but members still need to pay to enjoy direct communication with others. The good news is that as a newcomer, you always get 20 free credits that can’t be spent on any premium features. Still, once you run out of them, you’ll need to upgrade your account by buying one of the credit packages. 

At the moment, costs are as follows: 

  • $2.99 — 20 credits for newcomers
  • $9.99 — 20 credits for everyone else
  • $19.99 — 50 credits
  • $44.99 — 125 credits
  • $69.99 — 250 credits
  • $149.99 — 750 credits

Note that members don’t have to buy credits to keep using the site. You are the one who decides whether to buy or not to buy credits and chooses the time when to do it.

Free and premium services on Wingtalks

I read quite many Wingtalks reviews before I even set up an account on the site, and I still couldn’t understand what I would pay for and what I would be able to do for free. So, after around two weeks on the platform, I distinguished all the main free and paid features. 

Free Wingtalks features

  • Registration & profile upgrade. You don’t have to pay for anything when you join the community. Any information or photos can be shared for free. 
  • Access to profiles. Access to profiles, bios, public photos, and posts from members isn’t restricted either. 
  • Search & Followers. You can use any search feature for free and follow anyone on the site. 
  • Winks, likes, and favorites. These are the only free ways to let someone know you’re interested in having a conversation and getting to know each other better.

Premium Wingtalks features

  • Live chat & Mails. Both features work equally well, but I personally prefer real-time conversations on a messenger. Also, whatever you choose, you’ll be able to send photos, videos, and custom stickers. 
  • Say Hello feature. This may be really helpful for those who don’t know what to say in their first messages to someone attractive. 
  • Profile videos. Some members have them, and you’ll need to spend extra credits to view them. 
  • Gifts. There are only virtual gifts at the moment, but a real gift delivery service may be launched soon.

This is a good set of features. I appreciated that I didn’t have to pay to see profiles of people I could meet on Wingtalks. However, unlike most other sites, it doesn’t let members view videos without spending any credits. 

How does Wingtalks work?

Wingtalks is a mixed platform that works like a dating site and a social networking site. Still, the algorithm for most users is the same—the process of using the platform always consists of the following stages:

1
Setting up an account
Registration won’t take much time, and it will be completely free both for men and for women. At the first stage of the process, you’ll need to share your email (which will also be your Wingtalks login), username, date of birth, and gender. Then, you’ll be redirected to the Quiz page. There’ll be multiple questions about you, your hobbies, interests, previous online dating experiences, etc., as well as questions about your perfect match. Also, you’ll be offered to add a photo and write a bio. Most questions can be skipped, but I wouldn’t recommend doing it. The quality of profiles is high, and people with low-effort pages just won’t be able to withstand the competition.
2
Search
All types of search features are free to use, which is not always the case on similar websites. You can choose what you prefer—more randomized swiping, classic search by filters, scrolling posts on the Feed page, or just browsing profiles on the Search page. I definitely preferred looking through the posts on the Feed, following people whose posts I liked, learning more about these people, and then choosing those I wanted to chat with.
3
Direct communication with other members
In this case, a member also can make choices. In particular, you can choose between the two main communication features—live chat and Mail service. Also, you can use the Say Hello feature that lets you choose one of the standard first messages, send winks, or just contact someone right away (custom messages get more attention overall).

The rest is absolutely up to you. If you join the community to find a partner, I’d recommend you focus on your best matches and move on if you notice any red flags. After all, communication will cost you credits, so why waste them on the wrong people? 

Wingtalks profile examples

What about the quality of profiles? It’s higher than on most niche websites, let alone mainstream free dating apps. 

Here’s what a typical profile on the site looks like. 

Wingtalks profile

As you can see, the member has multiple photos and also a profile video. Moreover, she started sharing posts on the site, and if she keeps doing it, she’ll get an outstanding profile as all the posts will be shown on her page. Though her bio isn’t exceptionally detailed, there’s still enough information to understand whether you should or shouldn’t contact this person. 

Summary from Wingtalks 

Mari Kovanen

What I appreciated most was the concept of the platform. This dating site isn’t promoted as a platform to meet Latin wives, Eastern European brides, or Asian brides. It has its primary focus on women seeking communication and love, especially women seeking them overseas. 

 

There are multiple interesting features, too, but it’s not a free site, so I’d recommend everyone set up a free account and spend bonus credits first. That will help you find out whether or not you are ready to pay for the service.
