ElitePartner is the ultimate partner agency for sophisticated singles seeking a steady relationship. Based on a personality test developed by a famous psychologist, a detailed matching system calculates which partners are particularly suited to one another. Each member profile is checked by hand to ensure its authenticity. With more than two million members, ElitePartner has become firmly established on the market since it was launched in 2004. It was the first online dating site to be awarded the TÜV quality mark.
ElitePartner is the premium dating site for academics and singles with high standards. Over the for the last six years ElitePartner has stood out from the crowd due to its large selection of high-class contacts, its scientific matching process, and its high level of service. The following principles apply: class not mass, quality not quantity. Anyone seeking a partner does not want to get to know lots of different people, just the one person who is right for them. The mediation process is based on scientific knowledge: relationships are always particularly happy when both partners have a similar level of education and similar values.
Scientific formula for happiness
Registration at ElitePartner begins with the scientific personality test. Developed by qualified psychologist Volker Drewes (lecturer, supervisor and trainer at the Berlin Academy of Psychotherapy, a facility run by the German Psychological Academy in cooperation with Humboldt University in Berlin), the personality test is based on the findings of current relationship research. The EliteMatching system uses the answers from the test to determine which members are the best match.
