About us

Two Catholics building a better way to meet.

We’re a simple, no-frills Catholic dating site that’s currently free for all to use. We’re independent and self-funded, and there are only two of us running this platform, Ken and Philip.

The principles we run on

We’re both Catholics, and we founded CatholicLuv believing there must be a better alternative for Catholics to connect and find someone special. That led us to a platform that puts the Catholic community first by following these principles:

  1. Open and transparent

    We’re open about how we operate. Anyone can see what we’re working on in our project board.

  2. Every piece of feedback is read

    We read all feedback and act on it whenever it’s plausible.

  3. No hidden fees

    No unfair tactics like “pay now to see your messages.”

  4. Keep it simple

    No frills, just the features you need to find your match.

How it started

The idea started when Philip was on multiple dating sites and apps, including Catholic-focused ones. He became frustrated with existing Catholic dating sites that had unfairly cornered the Catholic dating community with sky-high prices and poorly engineered features that tended to be more distracting than useful. Ken wrote a great Reddit post on this.

We intend to keep our community updated with our roadmap, like this Reddit post, and to take in feedback from members like you. Please keep the feedback coming and we’ll be happy to respond.
