But how does the recession affect the dating game?

Traditional dating is expensive and time consuming, a fact that drives more and more singles to online dating websites. Major dating sites and matchmaking agencies report a significant boost of interest in their services during these tough economic times.

Successful and educated singles have always  looked to dating within their socioeconomic sphere – a fact that became even truer during the recession.
The flock of unemployed singles to dating websites creates a problem for executives who are in short supply on these sites.  It  leaves a large population of successful singles unable to use these services.

One of the best examples  of this change is Eligon.ca, an exclusive and discrete dating community for executives. Established  here in our community, a Canadian company is the first to recognize this neglected group of people and  offer an elegant solution:   a perfect hybrid between an expensive matchmaking agency and inexpensive online dating site. Eligon.ca offers single executives the best of both worlds: a large number of singles  matched by an affordable price just like any other dating site, but with  the privacy and exclusivity of a high-end matchmaking agency.

But eligon.ca does not accept everyone. To become a member of this exclusive club, one must first apply with their resume and declare that all of the information provided is true. After submitting your application you must wait 24 hours, and then  it is  manually evaluated according to; education, level of income, and level of management. And if that is not sufficient   your identification will be verified with TransUnion credit reports as well as  other methods.
Alexander Ratz, one of the founders, says they’ve developed their own unique compatibility formula with the help of a psychotherapist and a relationship counselor. This formula is based on common sense and matches people according to similar values and preferences in addition to a simple computerization of traditional matchmaking practices.

“From research and surveys we have done we realize that our members are looking for different features to evaluate potential mates slightly differently than the rest of the population, and they expect a much higher level of design and usability. I believe that we’ve created this site to perfectly cater to the professional’s  needs and wants when it comes to dating,” says Alexander.

Ever since man  learned to quantify value in money, blue blood social clubs have existed. Those with money and power liked to be with others who also had money and power. The wealthy are usually  intensely private and try to avoid social climbers, especially when it comes to their love life.

An entire population of CEOs, doctors lawyers and other high profile professionals are staying away from public dating websites to avoid encountering their co-workers, patients or clients, and an altogether lack of likeminded individuals often found on these sites.

Everyday public dating websites, who prefer quantity over quality, do not suit this portion of the population by their very definition: public.

This vacuum gave rise  to eligon.ca, derived from the Latin word ‘eligo’, which means ‘selected.’ This club was created by a Canadian company operating in Ontario, to best cater exclusively to the rich and educated.

Call it eHarmony for the rich: it’s an online dating website that screens its members according to education and income. Alexander Ratz, one of the founders says “We are not snobby, we just want our members to be compatible. Wealthy and educated people are their match and we’re just here to provide the place for them to meet most comfortably.”

Right at the start, from the Homepage, a velvet rope and bouncer atmosphere presides.  The registration process to this site is different than that of others. A member must first apply, providing his employment and education information, agree to verification, and declare that they are who they say they are with a legal statement. If a member is admitted for having a high enough level of education, income and management position, he or she is then required to build a profile and pay a membership fee that is slightly higher than the average on the market.

“Getting the rich to mingle online is not an easy job” says Alexander “we had to build a completely new kind of a website to suit people of this caliber. A series of security measures takes place to secure the privacy of the information and once you’re in, you experience a different kind of a dating site, one that is suited for people that expect and want more.”

Worried you won’t get in? An invitation from a friend who is a member might help.
