BBW Cupid All reviews, opinions and experiences

Find Your BBW, or Find Love Anyway...

BBW Cupid is part of the wider, and widely trusted, Cupid dating sites network. It was originally designed for BBWs - big beautiful women - to find partners, though now it also caters for non plus-sized women looking for a BHM, or a big handsome man. It has a decent user base for its specificity, and most BBW Cupid users are based in the UK, USA, Canada and Australia. As well as a desktop site, BBW Cupid has a very usable app. Like many dating sites, BBW Cupids has a personality description are of the profile, which tells us that at least some of its members are looking for love rather than just fun. The free version of the site is totally okay as a taster, but it’s advisable to shell out for premium if you want a real chance at making a connection through BBW Cupid.

Sign up Quickly

It’s super quick to sign up for BBW Cupid. You just need to provide a name, email address and password, and tell BBW Cupid whether you’re a man or a woman, and whether you’re looking for a man or a woman.

Finding Someone To Chat To

BBW Cupid has a search feature like most other sites, and you can search by gender, distance from you and age range. The messaging hierarchy, though, is a little unusual. Basic members can send messages, but only to premium members. Premium members can message anyone. Instant messages pop up on your screen when you get them, and there are also chat rooms. Everyone can ‘Send Interest’, which is pretty much the BBW Cupid term for sending a like or a wink.

Finishing Your Profile

Although it’s really easy to get set up on BBW Cupid, there’s plenty more to do before you’ve finished your profile. You can add a headline, which is like a status or very brief about me. Then, there’s the personality part of the profile, in which you describe what you’re like in response to a few questions. BBW Cupid is incredibly in-depth in its basic questions too, from appearance to interests to lifestyle, each section has a whole slew of questions. You can really make your profile reflective of who you are, and likewise will find a lot of profiles that you can get your teeth into! BBW Cupid’s profile takes a good while to fill out totally, but it could definitely be worth it if others are also taking the time. It implies they’re serious about their search, anyway, whether it’s love they are looking for or just fun.

Is Paying Worth it on BBW Cupid?

BBW Cupid is usable without paying, but some key features, such as totally open messaging, are only available to paying members. Paying might be a good idea, at least for a while. There are 1, 3 and 12 month membership options available.

If you Need to Cancel

Cancel auto-renewal of your billing by going to Settings, Billing and toggling off Auto-Renew. You can temporarily delete your account through Settings, Profile Settings and then at the bottom of the page, Turn Off Account.

BBW Cupid Features

Users Online

BBW Cupid shows you all users online while you are, with preference of course given to the age and gender you’re looking for.

Something for Everyone

Same sex searches and matches are available on BBW Cupid, which is not always the case on sites like this.

Messaging

All users can message on BBW Cupid. Basic members can message premium members, and premium members can message anyone. Shall I go over that again? Just kidding! It’s an unusual system, but at least everyone can talk to someone!

Matches

You get unlimited matches on BBW Cupid, as long as there are members who fit your requirements. And there should be, with an active user base and new members joining regularly.

Send Interest

Sending Interest is just like Liking a user, or sending them a wink. It shows that you’re… well… interested but without too much effort on your part. So, not THAT interested. You can show interest in all members.

App

BBW Cupid has a very stylish and usable app. It does everything the desktop site does, so you can keep chatting or sending Interest wherever you happen to be.

Albums

You can add albums of photos to your profile, giving potential matches a really good idea of who you are and what you look like.

Premium Perks

What do you get if you pay for a premium account on BBW Cupid? Here are a few of the added benefits.

Message Everyone for vips

With premium membership on BBW, you can message anyone, no matter what their membership level is. So, if you like the look of a basic member when you’re one too, you have an incentive to level up!

An Extra-Large Profile! for vips

As a premium member, your profile space gets doubled. This means you can tell potential matches way more about who you are, as well as uploading extra pictures to show your absolute best self.

Become a VIP

On BBW Cupid, if you’re a premium member you can hop right to the top of everyone’s searches and online lists by boosting your profile to VIP status.

Message Translation for vips

One of the most interesting and unusual added features of premium membership on BBW Cupid is the ability to translate messages from other users. This is useful on a niche site, where you might find your perfect match far from your perfect location. If you don’t share a language you’re both fluent in, translation could really help love to bloom!

This is a website you can trust in a niche market that is home to a few less than reliable sites. The messaging structure can seem a little confusing at first - basic members can message paid, paid can message anyone - but doesn’t take long to get used to. Profiles are extensive, and there’s access to both profiles and pictures for everyone. BBW Cupid is a site that caters for both queer and straight daters, and can set you up with anything from a hook up to a forever love. It’s a little dated, visually, but has all the features you would expect from a modern dating experience, plus more if you pay for premium. The translated messages in particular are interesting and useful in this time of dating across borders, and connection across the globe. Overall, BBW Cupid has really high ratings on consumer trust sites, and that’s because it delivers. It’s a community of like minded individuals, and if you are or are looking for a BBW or BHM, then this is the site to start with. It may be the start to end with too, if you have any luck!

People Respond Here. You See the results and get results as well. Must I continue explaining what this means? Just what I have been looking for, and pretty easy to use without paying. For a while at least. Have had success w this site.

Would be nice if we non members could like text with everyone for free at least 1or 2 times. All the dating sites say free but never are they free. There's always a membership that costs way to much. Just saying.

Yes 8 No 6
Jake, 26 years old

Badoo dating app is my favorite full time app on the play store because it is pretty much free and I am always looking for a new chick to kick it with that is hella confident down to earth and a very awesome personality and I love it when a smart sophisticated sexy babe with a very thick booty you're absolutely a fool if you ain't on deck with BADOO

Yes 18 No 7
Jocelyn, 50 years old

What I find is that the men want a voluptuous woman right off the bat. Unlike other dating sites that give you profiles to read through only to find out at the very end he wants very slim and toned. One profile I got even had “No Fatties”. Thank you, BBWC for giving us a chance to find love.

Yes 23 No 15
