The next site under our review is bootycall-nextdoor.com. This is another casual dating site that is focused on members in the United States. Bootycall markets itself as an online adult community that is specifically designed for its users to meet and hang out with like-minded singles… and couples! Additionally, they say that their site is perfect for people looking either for something casual, like a one-night stand, or something more serious, like a long-term relationship. And they welcome users of all sexual orientations and needs.  

HOW DOES IT WORK? (Registration, profile, email verification)

On the main page of the site, you are immediately prompted for registration through a series of questions. You’re asked for your sex, email, password, age, and zip code. Gender options are traditional; you have the choice of choosing male, female, or couple. This option of choosing couple kind of immediately gives the impression that although they say their site can be used for traditional long-term relationships, it is more likely that the kind of users you’ll find here are the ones seeking casual encounters. So if that’s what you’re looking for, this might be the right place for you. 

After completing the registration process, you are prompted to select the kind of subscription you prefer. You can click on "Pay later" on the right top, and you’ll be immediately taken to a page that will show you the many users active on their site. If you are using a desktop computer, you will need to scroll down until you find "Go to website" at the bottom right.

From here, on the tab on the left, you can open up your own profile and give some relevant information about yourself. Some of these include a short headline, an ‘About Me’ section, your age, height, body type, attributes, sexual orientation, race, willingness to travel, and your relationship status. 

Registration is completely free which should translate into a very quickly growing database of members. In fact, the site itself boasts of having a very large community of members.  

USER OBJECTIVES (features, payment scheme, messaging, matches)

In terms of features, Bootycall has all the basics and a bit more. One of their most useful features is being able to search for singles in your area.  Winks are a cool feature that let you send a heads up to someone you’re interested in if you’re too shy to send a message from the get-go. You can also add members to your ‘favorites’ for messaging at a later time or in case you’re messaging so many people that you forget the most prospective ones. Another cool feature is adding private photos that are only visible to the members you allow to make them visible. 

Messaging users is only possible after becoming a premium member. But once you do, messaging is unlimited. Bootycall premium membership is set up so that you pay 1 USD for a 1-day membership. After that, membership is auto-renewed at $42.48 every month. Comparatively speaking, this price is moderate, especially for unlimited messaging. Be sure you want to be a member before signing up because premium membership is non-refundable. 

CUSTOMER SUPPORT (support, security)

They have a well-organized FAQs section, and a simple-to-use for if your question is not on the list. Despite marketing itself as an American brand, Bootycall is operated by Global Digital Média SA, which is located in Switzerland. They inform their users that they are available to answer any questions or concerns and that they make an effort to make sure that their clients are always taken care of. 

In regards to security, Bootycall claims that it keeps the identities of its users hidden and secure and that its users have no need to divulge anything personal unless they are totally comfortable. 

CONCLUSION

That is our assessment and review of bootycall-nextdoor.com. Overall, user testimonials are quite mixed: with some saying that there are many fake profiles on the site and others saying they’ve had some great conversations and matches with people. In the terms and conditions on their site, Bootycall is transparent in informing their users that some users on the site are for entertainment purposes. This explains why our inbox was full of messages before even putting any details on our profile. So be careful!
