As a former employee of Christian Filipina, I saw the inner workings of this platform and how it operates. Christian Filipina is marketed as a premium dating site, helping lonely Western men connect with Filipina women for serious, faith-based relationships.
They charge a lot, close to $1,000 but what customers aren’t told is that many of these promises are misleading, and in reality, the platform is no better than much cheaper—or even free—dating sites.
One of the main selling points Christian Filipina pushes is its faith-based approach. They claim to help people form genuine Christian relationships, grounded in shared values and long-term commitment.
But what they don’t advertise is that the same women you find on Christian Filipina can also be found on other sites, like FilipinoCupid or PinaLove, for a fraction of the price. In fact, many users are shocked to find that women they’re chatting with on Christian Filipina also have profiles on these much cheaper or free sites.
The site justifies its high costs by emphasizing features like “exclusive profiles” and “scammer protection.” They claim to carefully screen profiles, ensuring users interact with real, genuine people. But the truth is, unless they have a magic machine that can peer into the hearts and souls of Filipinas there’s no way to determine what’s in their hearts. Paying $1,000 doesn’t shield you from the risks of international dating.
The only thing that sets Christian Filipina apart is its aggressive marketing. They pay influencers and bloggers some of the highest affiliate commissions in the industry, offering up to $300 per sale. This is a stark contrast to other dating platforms, which typically pay around $30 per sale.
That’s why you see so many influencers promoting Christian Filipina as if it’s a superior product. There’s nothing extraordinary about them.
The company is built on maximizing revenue, using high-pressure tactics to get users to upgrade to premium memberships with little extra value. The focus isn’t on building relationships but on upselling features that don’t significantly improve the user’s chances of success. ‘
For example, users who pay for premium memberships are often promised better matchmaking and direct communication with more women. But many soon discover that these “perks” don’t translate into more meaningful connections—especially since the same women are active on other, cheaper sites.
The biggest irony is that while Christian Filipina markets itself as a faith-driven site, its founder, Peter Christopher, has a troubling history. In 2018, he was convicted in federal court for conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government (passport fraud), part of a multi-million dollar scheme related to tax evasion.
It’s unsettling to think that the platform is built on Christian values when its founder was involved in something so ethically questionable, and passport fraud of all things. What’s worse is despite his company bringing in one million in revenue he tried to get taxpayers to shoulder his legal fees by using a public defender.
In the end, Christian Filipina offers little more than what cheaper or free dating sites provide. Its high prices are largely a reflection of its marketing and affiliate strategy, not its quality or effectiveness.
