LovelockDating is the first dating platform that verifies 100% of its members before they can message anyone. Built for single professionals aged 40 and over, every applicant completes a three-step process: a live video interview with the safety team, a criminal background check via Checkr Trust™, and a financial-fraud screening for bankruptcies and felony fraud. No credit check that affects a member's credit is ever performed. Founded by Dr. Barbara Finck — a successful retired physician and widow who was personally catfished five times on mainstream apps — LovelockDating launches first in the San Francisco Bay Area and replaces swipe culture with concierge-grade vetting and real, accountable connections.

LovelockDating is the first dating platform engineered to make romance scams structurally impossible. While Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, and Match let anyone create a profile in seconds, LovelockDating verifies every single member before approval through a three-step process: a live video interview with the in-house safety team, a criminal background check (felonies and sex-offender registry via Checkr Trust™), and a financial-fraud screen for bankruptcies and felony fraud. No credit check that affects a member's credit is ever performed. Applicants who fail any step are rejected — no exceptions, no paid bypass.

The company was founded by Dr. Barbara Finck, a retired physician and widow who was personally catfished five times on mainstream dating apps after losing her husband. Frustrated by an industry that profits from loneliness without protecting users, she built LovelockDating so single professionals 40+ would never have to endure what she did. The platform launches first in the San Francisco Bay Area and operates under the brand promise "Verified. Authentic. Real." LovelockDating is headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area.
