General Questions

1. What is Speed Dating?
-
Speed Dating is a formalized matchmaking process or dating system with a purpose to encourage people to meet a large number of new people and find their love. The first speed dating event took place at United States in late 1998. Soon afterward, many commercial speed dating services began offering secular round-robin dating events all over the world, including Hong Kong.

2. Why choose FEVER?
-
We found on 1st January, 2011, and registered by the Hong Kong Government as a dating and matchmaking company. Since then, our team has grown and accumulated years of experience. Cooperating with big brands/organizations like Ocean Park, the Airport Authority, the Tourism Board, PMQ, Expedia and Discovery Bay, we have shown our dedication into reaching above and beyond in bringing our members the best experiences possible.

3. Is my personal information safe?
-
We take personal privacy very seriously. We will not sell or disclose any of personal information to any person or organizations without members' consent. Please read our for more details.

4. What is the "Speed Dating FEVER" App used for?
-
After most events, other dating companies will review the participants' matching results and help mutual pairs exchange contact information. This process was done by hand, which took several days to complete and still led to some errors. In view of this, we developed our "Speed Dating FEVER" App which allows for such process to be much more convenient, effective and accurate. It helps to avoid manual errors and allows participants to receive their results immediately following the event. Thus our app is used at many events and available to free download from App Store or Google Play now.

About FEVER Events
-
1. How effective are events?
-
Most of our members are looking for serious relationship and lifelong partners. To increase the chances of participants meeting their potential love, each event requests different requirements from participants, which may include education background, age, profession, interests, etc. Speed Dating has been proven as an effective way to meet the opposite sex, and there have been numerous cases of successful matching. In fact, participants rarely leave empty-handed. Around 90% of participants walk away from the events having gained new friends.
-
2. What is the distribution of male and female participants?
-
The number of participants in an event depends on the type of activity, ranging from a romantic table for six to parties with over a hundred attendees. The "total quota" displayed for each event is just an estimated number, considering various factors and reasons such as absences, late arrivals, early departures, additional spots, or considering the gender ratio. As a result, the actual number of registered participants and the number of attendees may deviate. Our company will make every effort to maintain a reasonable number of participants and a balanced gender ratio, so participants can rest assured. Please go to the page for more details.
-
3. Will there be any "spy" in the events?
-
We know that there are speed dating companies that sometimes hire "spy" to attend their events. However, we do not believe in this action, as we believe participants should feel comfortable talking to everyone at the event. We have no need for and have never hired "spy" to attend our events. Having been founded in 2011, we have gathered a large member pool with a daily increase. Every participant attending our events registers for our events on their own accord.
-
4. Will the company be taking photos or videos at the events?
-
We consider privacy of the utmost importance so during most events, we strictly forbid any photo or video taking, even by participants.
