The quick answer is YES! There is no big difference to ordinary dating. The nicest thing about online dating is the easy access to so many more people and the fact that you can decide who you talk to when you want to. You can spend hours, days, weeks, month communicating with potential dates before you even contemplate meeting up.
You must still take the usual precautions you would in your day-to-day life, never reveal any private or personal information. All the personal details such as full name and email addresses you provide to DateME Kenya are NOT featured on your profile and will be kept safe and secure. Please read out safety tips for more info.
We do all we can to keep the site full of genuine, fun, professional people. But you have the final say and you are responsible for your own safety, please read through our dating safety advice when considering meeting someone – and always remember we are here to help and will always do our best to keep you safe and secure online.

We are a members-only website. This allows us to eliminate all the jokers from the pack and only allow genuine people access to the site. We personally approve every new member and check that they pass the high benchmark set by DateME Kenya. If we ever find anything suspicious then the person will not be accepted.
We have also made it easy for YOU to report any member stepping out of line; we DO NOT tolerate anyone asking for money in any form, soliciting sex or abuse. Anyone doing so will be instantly banned and no refund given!
All your personal details like your email address, phone number or full name that you give to datemekenya.com are always kept confidential and never revealed to any 3rd parties.
No one at datemekenya.com will ever have access to your bank or card details. We do not handle or store this type of information. When paying for your membership you pay through a safe and secure server that will take a one time payment and you will not be re-charged unless you choose to renew.
After you have chosen the membership package you want, you will be prompted for payment through our secure payment server and given several options. Select the payment option you prefer and simply enter your details. This will be a one-time payment and you will then receive a confirmation email confirming your membership.
After your membership has ended it will not be automatically renewed. We let you decide if you want to renew your membership and will email you a friendly remider prior to your membership ending.
Don’t worry… Lots of people find this part a bit of a pain, but the important thing to remember is that you can say what you want, as long as its all true of course! Keep things positive and talk about things you like, tell a funny story that’s happened to you. Below is a list of things you can write about...
Whatever you do make sure it’s all true and keep it fun. Stay away from being too negative. Try and stand out, profiles that are positive and full of life usually get the most attention.
All sales are final. If you purchase a membership and then later decide not to want it any more then we do not offer a refund. You can delete your account, but no refund will be given.
Memberships are NON-transferable for security reasons. Sorry.
We work around the clock to make sure profiles, picture etc. are approved as soon as possible. Our general guideline is that we ask you to give us 24-hours for profile approval and between 24/48 hours for pictures. It’s usually within a few hours though!
Please make sure your picture is the correct size (not too big and not too small). In most cases the picture is too large and you need to resize it. If you don’t know how to do this then email us the picture and we will do our best to help.
Also be sure it’s in a jpg, gif or png format.
