Our review
★★★☆☆ 3.0
Jiayuan (shiji jiayuan, "Century Love") was founded in a Fudan University dorm and grew into China’s first NASDAQ-listed dating company before merging with Baihe. It remains one of the country’s default names for serious matchmaking. Same caveats as its sibling: Chinese ecosystem required, sales pressure documented.
Pros
- Pioneer brand with massive base
- Marriage-serious members
- Deep matchmaking services
Cons
- China-only in practice
- Upsell-heavy offline arm
- Dated product in places
