How to Cancel Christian Mingle 2026 — The Faith-Based Dating Site's Cancellation Maze
Updated March 2026 • 6 min read
Christian Mingle markets itself as the #1 Christian dating app, charging $15-50/month depending on your plan. It's owned by Spark Networks (which also owns Zoosk and JDate). While the faith-based positioning feels trustworthy, the billing practices are anything but — auto-renewal is aggressive, and the cancellation flow is designed to slow you down.
⚠️ The Auto-Renewal Trap: Christian Mingle auto-renews at the FULL monthly rate when multi-month plans expire. So your $15/month 6-month plan suddenly becomes $49.99/month if you forget to cancel before renewal day.
Christian Mingle Pricing
- 1 month: $49.99/month
- 3 months: $34.99/month ($104.97 total)
- 6 months: $24.99/month ($149.94 total)
- 12 months: $14.99/month ($179.88 total)
The gap between monthly ($50) and annual ($15) pricing is deliberate — it makes the annual plan feel like a steal, locking you in for a full year. But $180/year for a dating app is steep.

If the website method doesn't work, email support@christianmingle.com with:

As with all dating sites: canceling the subscription does not delete your profile. You need to explicitly close/delete the account to remove your photos and personal information from the platform.
Why Christian Mingle Isn't Worth the Premium
- Small, shrinking user base: As mainstream apps add faith-based filters, niche sites lose users
- Spark Networks financial troubles: Parent company has reported declining revenue — fewer investment in features
- Free tier is very limited: You can browse but can't read or send messages, which is the entire point
- Cross-site profiles: Some profiles appear on Zoosk and JDate simultaneously
- Mainstream apps now have faith filters: Hinge, Bumble, and Match all let you filter by religion
Free Alternatives for Christian Dating
- Hinge (free): Set "Religion: Christian" as a dealbreaker — filters automatically
- Bumble (free): Faith filter in profile preferences
- Facebook Dating (free): Large Christian user base, totally free
- Church community groups: Ask your pastor — many churches run social events specifically for singles
- Volunteer organizations: Habitat for Humanity, food banks — meet people who share your values through action
