Just Vegan Dating vs Green Singles

Green Singles is one of the longest-running websites for vegetarian, vegan and eco-minded singles, mostly used in the USA and run by the Conscious Dating Network. Just Vegan Dating, by contrast, is a site purely for vegan dating, its members concentrated in Britain and America, and it works on a desktop or a phone. The main difference is focus: Green Singles casts a wider net across green and spiritual living, while Just Vegan Dating is about vegan dating.

A wide green net or a vegan one

Green Singles welcomes vegans and vegetarians alongside singles who are eco-conscious or spiritually minded, and it shares one member database with sister niche sites in its network. That gives it reach across several overlapping communities. On Just Vegan Dating, everyone joined a dating site for vegans, so the shared ground is narrower and more definite. Vegetarians and plant-curious singles join too, and our vegetarian dating page explains how that works.

Messaging on a free account

Green Singles lets free members build a profile with photos and video, search, see compatibility scores, send a small number of short hellos each day and reply to paid members; writing your own messages is part of its paid membership. On Just Vegan Dating, free members can send a limited number of messages of their own every day, as well as reply to anyone on VIP or VIP Plus, so you can start a real conversation before deciding whether to pay. Our free vegan dating page lists everything free includes.

Events and community

Green Singles points members to in-person and online events, retreats and speed dating through its network. Just Vegan Dating keeps the community inside the site: a feed where members post photos, recipes and longer blog pieces, members-only chat rooms, and private group chats of up to 50 people for VIP members to organise their own meet-ups. Our guide to finding a vegan partner lists events worth going to as well.

Checks and support

Green Singles does not describe identity checks on its own pages. We offer two, both free: a document check, or a brief live video chat with one of our moderators, and either puts a verified badge on your profile. New photos and posts are screened, scam patterns are watched for, and you can reach support day or night. See the safety page.

Where you can use it

Green Singles is a website. Just Vegan Dating is also a website, but one designed for small screens: save it to your phone's home screen and it opens like an app, and there are native apps in some markets. See the vegan dating app page.

Which suits you?

If your idea of a match is broadly green, spiritual or eco-minded, and you are in the USA, Green Singles has decades of history in that world. If you want someone vegan, in the UK or the USA, with daily matches near you, free messages to start with and free ID checks, try Just Vegan Dating. Both have free accounts, so you can look before you commit.
