A premium membership in be2 is crucial if you want to get something from the dating site. All of the contacting features of be2 requires a premium subscription. If you are a free member, all you can do is view your daily matches. However, most members choose to hide their profile pictures to free members, and you can only request access to see them if you have a premium membership.

Premium membership is auto-renewed in be2, except for users who are registering from the states of California, Oregon, Virginia, Louisiana, Connecticut, and New Mexico. Your premium membership is auto-renewed for the same price and package duration you have initially availed.

Scam Controversy of be2

Be2 has undergone much speculation after premium members of the website called their services a scam. These members said that they received several messages, likes, and favourites (all of which are not available to free members) even if they haven’t uploaded a profile picture yet. They claimed that all these are enticements for them to get a premium membership, and when they upgraded their accounts, the messages stopped pouring in. These messages seemed like they came from fake profiles.

Who is signed up on be2 in Australia?

Exclusively on DatingScout: online member numbers for dating services are usually far off, so we estimate how many people are really on be2 from traffic data and interest, updated monthly, with history.

The majority of be2's members are from different countries in Europe. The members of this dating site are varied in age and gender. Since be2 is a matchmaking dating site, most of its members are serious about looking for love and long-term relationships. However, it seems like there are only a few active premium members on the dating site because of its hefty premium subscription fee.

Some sources say that be2 has over 30 million users worldwide. However, on be2’s home page, it clearly states that the dating site has over one million singles. A possible cause for this would be the site cleaning up its member base, removing inactive and suspicious profiles after dozens of their scam controversies have been publicized.

The be2 app

★★★★★ 3.5/5

  • Signing up through the mobile app is quicker and easier
  • Mobile app is designed to give a pleasurable user experience
  • All features are the same as its website counterpart
  • There is no chat function unlike other dating mobile apps
  • App is available to download for free from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store

Be2’s mobile app offers the same features as its website counterpart. It is designed to give an excellent mobile dating experience to all be2 members. The features are organised as tabs on the top menu, and the account settings can be found on the collapsed menu on the right.

While your matches are displayed in a list on the website, the mobile app shows your matches through a two-column grid. The grid shows the profile pictures of your matches together with their names, ages, locations, and compatibility score.

As with the member profiles, the user’s profile photo takes up most of the screen, and you would have to scroll down to see his or her profile information. The contacting buttons such as messaging and adding to your Favourites list can be found on the right side, hovering on the member’s profile picture.

Overall, the mobile app is good to use when you want to check your daily matches and reply to your messages.

Our field test

★★★★★ 4.5/5

“I found out about be2 through one of my colleagues. He met his wife there after six months of online dating. I was hesitant at first to sign-up because of the somewhat large subscription fee but was convinced by the same colleague that it would be worth it. He said that users there were serious in finding love, so if I want to meet someone for long-term dating (possibly marriage), it would be a good investment because other premium members think the same way. I signed up for the 3-month membership and was surprised by how it turned out. After a week of browsing my daily matches, I found a woman that attracted me. We talked, and I realised that we had the same humour and interests. We went out on a date, and that was the beginning of our love story. I’m happy I took that leap because now, we are happily married for three years, and have twins on the way.” John, 32, Perth

Design & usability

Be2’s website design is simple and easy to use. Since it has no special features to begin with, the website has no clutter and only has two primary tabs on its header main header menu. These two features, Matches and Message Inbox, are represented by icons, and show a red notification bubble if you have new matches or messages.

be2’s website uses white, grey, and pink. There is nothing fancy in be2’s web or mobile app design, and the app's user interface is pleasing to all age ranges and level of users. Matches and Message Inbox are the only two tabs in the header main header menu.

Special features

Be2 contains a few special features to make your dating experience enjoyable and easy.

Messaging and contact 1

JUST askFree

This function lets you ask your matches some pre-texted question from a list. Through this, you can find out more about a person without committing to a full conversation. This also makes it easier for people who are afraid of making the first move. By using JUST ask, you just have to sit back and wait for responses, and let the conversation flow.

Other extras 1

Be2 IndexFree

The Be2 Index is the result of a complex calculation between your personality test results and profile information. It is the marker of your personality in comparison to others. Your Be2 Index is the analysis of your tendencies between Rationality vs. Emotionality, Tradition vs. Innovation, Distance vs. Attachment, and Observation vs. Feeling.

The Be2 Index is used to evaluate your degree of compatibility with another person. This is how your matches are curated. You can read more details about this on the right side of any profile you visit under "More details about matching". If you feel like your Be2 Index is inaccurate, note that the Be2 Index is only a relative value.

Final results

4.0
“Be2 provides a satisfactory dating platform for users who want to meet their match. Since all contacting features are locked for premium-paying members only, there are absolutely no fake profiles you can encounter on the dating site. Sign up for free today!”

They need to be investigated by the authorities, they will scam you, be warned !they don't allow you to cancel your subscription when you have an active one, they ignore you cancellation emails and seek to renew your monthly subscription. I instructed my bank not to pay them and they have responded by sending threatening emails about how they will send debt collection agents to my door.,,scam, scam scam.
