Please stay safe while getting to know someone online.

Never send money to someone you've only met online.

Don't share sensitive personal or financial information.

Take your time—don't let anyone pressure you into a relationship or meeting.

Video chat before meeting in person if possible.

Meet in a public place for your first few dates and let a trusted friend or family member know where you're going.

Trust your instincts. If something feels off, it's okay to end the conversation.

Report and block anyone who is abusive, threatening, or suspicious.

User Reviews of PinaLove:

(I used this app around January 2024, so things may have changed since then, I have not used this app since)Like many other men, I was very desperate jumping from many different dating apps.  After deciding I was open to long distance and wanted an Asian girlfriend, I gave this app a try.Upon creating an account, I was instantly bombarded with many likes.  The free experience doesn’t let you see these likes, but through phone notifications you can see the names of who liked you, and then search their profile.  The free version also limits you to one message every 10 minutes.  Once again, this can be circumvented by inviting others to chat with you by putting your Discord, WhatsApp, etc in your profile.The number of likes I got led me to believe these were just bot accounts, but as I chatted with these women, they were not bots and indeed real.  I found one girl in particular who was very genuine and sincere, and we have been girlfriend and boyfriend for 8 months, and I have already been to the Philippines once to meet her in person, with another trip planned already.My experience with this app was very positive and I understand others may not find the same success I was so lucky to find, but compared to every other dating app out there, this app was a breath of fresh air (though it required much out of the box thinking to get around the free restrictions) 

First off I want to say, there aren’t that many trying to scam you, but there are a lot of solicitors who desire money for nude photos and sometimes more. I’m not interested in that aspect, but I did find it refreshing that they were not rude. The women on PinaLove are very forward about their intentions never leaving room for mystery and wonder. Careful who you send money to if you do. Other than that, you can find a wonderful Filipina woman who is engaging in conversation and willing to cooperate with your goals whether they have goals of their own or not. This is of course my personal experience, but the women there are not always interested in appearance nor age. Worth a try and worth a premium after trying.
