As an elite matchmaker, it makes sense to assume that Elite Singles has a salary requirement for members to join. However, assumptions aren’t automatically correct just because they make sense. In this article, we’ll reveal the truth about Elite Singles’ salary requirement with an evidence-based approach to back up our findings.
No, Elite Singles does not have a salary requirement.
Let’s start with the answer upfront.
There is no salary requirement or earnings criteria needed to join Elite Singles.
Again, rumors have swirled for a while that this was the case, but it simply is not true. You can make a million dollars a year or ten dollars a year, and you’re allowed to join Elite Singles.
If you’ve been waiting to hear this to join, consider this your green light. And since we’re talking about income and salary, if you’d like to be fiscally responsible and try Elite Singles for free, we’ve included a link below to automatically get signed up with a free trial account.
Here are three pieces of evidence that show Elite Singles does not have an income requirement.
In case you want to dig a little deeper, we thought it was important to share the evidence as to how we know this to be the case. Here are three definitive bits of evidence.
Elite Singles Terms of Service does not list income as an eligibility requirement.
Section 2 of Elite Singles Terms of Service clearly lays out the eligibility requirements for membership. Here’s what that says.
And if you don’t want to read it, that’s okay. The takeaway is that nowhere in there does it talk at all about salary.
ELIGIBILITY
By accessing or using the Services, you represent and warrant that: (a) you are at least 18 years old; (b) you have never been convicted of a felony or any criminal offense characterized as a sexual offense and are not required to register as a sex offender with any government entity; (c) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Services; (d) you have the right, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to abide by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement; (e) you are not a competitor of us and are not using the Services for reasons that are in competition with us or other than for its intended purpose; and (f) you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any country which the United States has (i) embargoed, (ii) identified as a “Specially Designated National” or (iii) placed on the Commerce Department’s Table of Deny Orders.
Additionally, we pulled out our trusty site search and looked for every mention of “salary” on the Elite Singles website. Here’s what we found:
These were the only three results. As you can see, nothing about a salary requirement. Just a few random blogs that mention the word salary in other, off-hand contexts. If this were a requirement, you’d see it on the website.
We literally asked them…and they said no.
Probably the best piece of evidence we have that Elite Singles has no salary requirement is that we asked them—and they said they don’t. Not much of a better source than going straight to the proverbial horses’ mouth!
It doesn’t make sense.
The last reason we know that there is no income requirement is that it wouldn’t make sense with Elite Singles matchmaking process. The goal of Elite Singles is to match affluent and successful people with a good match. Often, successful people want to be matched with someone who might be successful in areas of life other than financially.
If you were to impose a salary requirement, your affluent members could only be matched with other affluent members. Elite Singles would have to develop two types of memberships, and frankly, that would get messy and ostracize a lot of potential members.
Additionally, over the years, Elite Singles has rebranded its matchmaking service to target educated singles much more than those who are successful financially. Sometimes level of education does not correlate with salary.
