A-List Extras
The perks and privileges.
Enhanced Match Search
By Match Questions
You can filter your matches by how many questions they’ve answered. The more questions someone has answered, the more accurate your match percentage number with them will be.
By Dating Persona
Looking for someone deliberate, random, gentle, or brutal? How about a love master, love dreamer, sex master, or sex dreamer? A-List members can filter matches based on the results of our Dating Persona Test.
Attractiveness & Body type
A-Listers can filter match searches by people's Quickmatch ratings. A-list users also have the ability to filter based on someone’s body type.
By Personality Traits
Sorting matches by personality traits gives you access to 14 of the personality traits we calculate for our users. You can make any combination of five and set each trait’s importance.
By Your Customized Filter
The “Custom” ordering option lets you sort users using a combination of our default options, such as match percentage, distance, and join date. But we’ve also added the option to sort by profile and Quickmatch ratings.
Find Similar Users
You’ve found someone interesting on the site, and you want to find people similar to them. No problem—enter their username in the “Similar to a user” option, and we’ll show you a list of people who are like them.
Totally Random
No explanation needed. This option will show you a healthy mix of randomly selected users.
Multiple Saved Searches
We’ve always saved your most recent search settings for you. With an A-List membership you can save more than one and load them up at any time. Simply click the save icon under your match settings and name your search.
Photos and albums
Visibility
Public or private—it’s your choice. By using the settings menu on each photo album you can limit who has access to your photos. Those who are excluded won’t even know the album exists.
Privileges
Staff Robot is pretty picky about profile images, and for good reason. But photo albums don’t have to be only of you. Feel free to upload photos of your dog, your grandma, or most other things. That includes mature photos. You can mark albums as mature and they’ll only be available to other A-List members.
Attach!
You can also send photos along with your messages. Check out the next section to learn more.
Message attachments and storage
Attachments
You can send any of your photos to another member on the site. There is even an option to upload new photos directly from your computer or a url.
Storage Space
By default you can store 300 messages, but with a membership you’ll be able to store up to 5,000 messages.
Special Delivery
There are plenty of users with no more message space, and that means we can’t deliver more messages to them. Messages sent by A-Listed members always get through. And the recipient can respond without having to free up space.
General stuff
No Ads
OkCupid is free and supported by ads, but an A-List membership entitles you to a completely ad-free experience.
Change your username
Changing a username requires a lot of programming effort on our end. But A-List members have this privilege. You can change your username (and reactivate old ones) once per month, and your new names will last as long as you are A-Listed!
Enhanced anonymous browsing
OkCupid members can choose not to appear in the “Visitors” list of people they look at. Normally, you have to give up seeing your own Visitors list for this anonymity. But A-List members can browse anonymously and see who visits their profile. They can even choose to let select people know that they visited.
