Dominican Cupid Reviews (2024) - Is It Worth Trying?

Dominican Cupid is one of the best Dominican dating sites out there, so it’s packed with beautiful local women looking to meet someone. If you’re traveling to the DR (or would like to if you had the right women waiting), it's worth signing up.

How do we know? Because we've been in the dating industry since 2009, optimizing profiles, swiping, and sending messages on behalf of all the clients we represent online. 

We’ve experienced how all the dating apps and sites have evolved over the years, so we understand the unique benefits and drawbacks of each one. This accumulated knowledge allows us to guide singles toward the platform that best suits their dating goals.

These Dominican Cupid reviews have all the details you’re looking for, from cost to pros and cons and how it works, so you can decide if it’s the right dating site for you.

We’ll even share a few tips on making your Dominican Cupid profile irresistible at the end!

Let’s get this DominicanCupid review started with the pros & cons:

PROS:

  • Owned and operated by Cupid Media, a company with a strong reputation for quality international dating sites. Other dating sites in their portfolio include Caribbean Cupid and Latin American Cupid.
  • The site is popular in the Dominican Republic and is primarily focused on helping local women find North American men.
  • Narrowing down your search results is easy with the site’s detailed search functions.

CONS:

  • Prepare to put in time screening your profiles. As with any international dating site, there are some women just looking to separate foreign men from their money.
  • The site has its share of fake profiles, but spotting them is fairly easy. If she’s only got one photo and she’s in an overtly sexual pose, it’s probably not legit.
  • Only a premium member can message any potential match on the site. So without a paid subscription, you can't contact Dominican Cupid members who use the site for free.

What Others Are Saying In Their Dominican Cupid Review

This online dating site has a solid reputation.

TrustPilot gives DominicanCupid a solid 4-star rating, with the majority of user reviews in the 4 or 5 star range.

On Google Play, the companion dating app has 3.6 stars, with the most common complaints being app glitches and the messaging restrictions for free users.

Addison Sears-Collins, founder of VisaHunter.com, called it “the best website for finding love in the Dominican Republic.

Other bloggers have given it praise for the ease of meeting stunningly attractive locals. They’ve also said the site’s easy to navigate.

Here at VIDA, we agree. If you’re looking to find a gorgeous Dominican woman, this is the site to try. (We’ll even find her for you - click here learn how!)

Dominican Cupid Cost & Features

It’s totally free to create a profile, browse your matches, and exchange messages with women who pay to use the site. Communication with "Standard" (meaning free) members requires an upgraded membership.

There are 2 levels of premium membership: Gold and Platinum.

Here is a side-by-side comparison of all 3 levels:

Dominican Cupid features

Dominican Cupid costs $40.99 for 1 month if you sign up for a Platinum membership. It's $34.74 for 1 month of Gold level access. The Diamond level costs $81.98 for 1 month.

Setting Up An Account

Creating a Dominican Cupid account takes about 30 seconds. You can sign up via the website or the Dominican Cupid app. The dating app is only available for Android users currently.

Enter your first name, gender, age, email, and password... and boom, you’re up and browsing.

You need an attention-grabbing profile if you want to eventually meet the site’s hottest Dominican singles. Most of them are specifically looking to meet a foreign gentleman, and you’ve got to show her why you’re a contender.

In a nutshell - if you don’t take your profile seriously, she’s not taking you seriously.

On Dominican Cupid, your primary photo is front and center (no surprise there, right?). Success on this site hinges on more than just your looks.

Sure, you’ve got to look good, but she’s going to be imagining life with you while she’s scrolling through your photos. Make sure your surroundings are as visually appealing as you are.

There are 5 sections to your profile, but don’t worry - the first 4 are all pull down menus:

  1. Basics
  2. Your Appearance
  3. Lifestyle
  4. Your Background
  5. In Your Own Words

The last section is the most important part of your profile. She won’t get a good idea of your personality based on pull down menu selections, so you need to make the "In Your Own Words" section count.

When you’re writing a profile for an international dating site, you need to take a different approach than you would on a site like Match.com.

Her English could be just good enough to understand the very basics, but otherwise, unless she works in tourism, she’s probably using Dominican Cupid’s automatic translation feature. That’s why you’ll want to keep both your profile and your messages simple.

PRO TIP: Google Translate is an easy way to make sure nothing gets “lost in translation.” Simply translate your profile into Spanish, then translate the Spanish version back into English. If something doesn’t make sense, rewrite that part using more simple language and test it again.

Keep these 3 tips in mind when writing your Dominican Cupid profile:

  1. Highlight a few alpha male qualities. If she’s looking to start a new life, she wants a good provider. For example, if you’re fairly successful, it makes sense to briefly describe your career and living situation.
  2. Mention a few hobbies and interests. You’ve got a multifaceted personality and an active social life. Make sure it comes through on paper.
  3. Imply you’ll be visiting the DR soon. She’s not looking for a long-distance relationship any more than you are, and she’s not going to waste her time on a guy she thinks she’ll never meet.

You might want to write your profile in a separate document, then copy it onto the site. Dominican Cupid automatically logs you out of the site after a few minutes of inactivity, and for some reason it doesn’t register you typing into the form fields as activity.

That means if you’re writing as you go on the dating website, you risk losing all your work before you have the chance to submit it.

Next up is editing your match criteria. Using additional pull down menus, you can specify details like height, weight, body type, ethnicity, etc.

Once that’s completed, there’s a screen for selecting various interests you have, like your favorite foods, activities, music, etc.

It’s worth your time to click a few boxes in each section, as shared interests can help build attraction with a potential match. Besides, if she thinks you have no fun activities in your life, she’s going to think you’re a pretty boring guy and move on.

The “Personality” section gives you the opportunity to answer up to 12 fill-in-the-blank questions about everything from your favorite book to your physical appearance.

Answering at least a few of these questions is a good idea, as it’s one more chance to highlight all your most attractive qualities.
