"Pairs" is an online dating app used by more than 27 million people in Japan. Since launch, we have received success stories from over 900,000 people. Pairs is the first-in-market to offer 24/7 in-house customer service, including text and image monitoring, so our users' safety and security are always ensured.

We created Pairs to help singles discover new and interesting ways to find a life partner. In the United States, more than 1 in 3 couples met their partner online. In Japan more than 70 per cent of singles claim to have no partner.

As the number 1 online dating service in Japan, we're working hard every day to help singles find their true love. Since the release of Pairs in October 2012, we have helped to create opportunities for many users to find partnership and marriage. Pairs offers the opportunity to find an ideal partner that matches one's own values through various search features and a well-developed MyTag.

Everyday, we receive many reports of successful matches from across Japan and from overseas. It is our hope that more and more opportunities for wonderful relationships will be created, which inspires us to improve our service every day.
