Partner with
Melanated Connections

Our members are people of color who are dating, falling in love and building relationships. Partners keep the site free for them. If your brand, venue, trip or service helps people find love or celebrate it, we would love to talk.

Ways to partner

  • Sponsorships: your brand on the site, our newsletter and our launch events in your city.
  • Trips: singles getaways and couples retreats offered to our members.
  • Date-night experiences: restaurants, lounges, concerts, classes and venues featured as date ideas.
  • Products and services: gifts, grooming, wellness, photography, wedding and relationship services for daters and couples.
  • Events and mixers: co-host an in-person night for our members.

We only work with partners we would recommend to our own friends, and sponsored content is always labeled. Partners never receive our members’ personal information.
