New Zealand is similar to Australia as well in that it doesn’t have the racial mixture that you will find dating online in the United States or in Canada.

When you go to cities like Auckland, Wellington, or Christchurch, don’t expect to see people of different skin colors, body shapes, and sizes like you would find in a country such as Brazil.

Once signed-up, you have a few options to locate potential matches: How to Communicate with Other Members Favorite other members, send them a message (text only), or send them a free “hug”, “kiss”, or “smile”. There are also Men-only and Women-only sections, which felt like a nice touch.

Finally, there is a tab dedicated solely to events organized by and for members of Find Someone.

Next, fill out your basic information (username, first name, location, main reason for joining NZDating, email, birthday, password) and agree to the terms of use.

Enter a code from a verification email, and you are done.

NZDating does this in an attempt to warn members that Overseas and Standard members may be less trustworthy.

All that said, NZDating does have over 100,000 members and sports enough features to make it worth a try.

Although not as big or as pretty as its main competitor in New Zealand, Find Someone, NZDating does have one leg-up on the competition: it allows overseas members.

Nevertheless, with enough work on your part, you might be able to find some hidden gems.

I believe beauty is present in just about every culture (some more than others).
