About Us
Our Mission: Connecting Halifax Singles
At Halifax Matchmaker, we understand the challenges faced by singles in and around Halifax, NS. In today's digital age, with dating apps and remote work minimizing social interactions, meeting the right person can feel daunting. We've heard stories of people even considering leaving Halifax solely because they feel they won't find a match here. But we know there's a wealth of quality singles in Halifax—you just haven't met them yet.
That's why we founded Halifax Matchmaker: to change how people meet and create opportunities for meaningful connections. Our mission is clear—to facilitate quality introductions and foster healthy relationships within our vibrant community focused solely on finding life partners.
Join Halifax Matchmaker today and embark on a journey to find love, connection, and happiness right here in Halifax. Your perfect match may be closer than you think.
How it Works:
When we find a great match for a member, a mutual introduction is created. We send out new introductions on Tuesdays to ensure everyone is active on the platform on the same day. We limit the number of active introductions sent each week to allow time for matches to set up in-person dates over the weekend before our next round of introductions the following Tuesday.
If you’re currently exploring a connection and would like to pause receiving new introductions, you can notify us directly through your profile. Each introduction will have an option to provide private feedback to our matchmakers, including 'Interested,' 'Not Interested,' and a comment section. This is where our members can update our matchmakers with feedback on current introductions, helping us refine our search moving forward.
By reviewing past introductions, we prioritize and reward those who are active in their dating approach—committed to communicating and meeting in person. This ensures our members receive high-quality matches.
We host in-person events across the Halifax area, including exclusive invite-only gatherings. Event invites and availability will be directly accessible through your Events tab. Our events are thoughtfully curated to bring the right people together, maximizing the success of meaningful connections.
We offer both free and paid plans. Free profiles receive new introductions when a high match is found with a current member, while our paid members benefit from our matchmakers actively searching for individuals who align with their preferences through our database, in-person events, and social media network.
Our platform is accessible both directly on our website and via the mobile app for the best user experience.

Frequently asked questions
1. Do I need to be a paid member to access the Member Portal, receive introductions, or attend events?
No. You can create a free profile and sign in to the Member Portal.
