What is Chat?

Chat allows you to send real time messages to another lavalifePRIME member who is online at the same time as you. The messages are totally private.

How does it Work?

You can chat with members who are online. If there is someone you wish to chat with, simply click on the "Chat" link. The "Chat" is displayed on the search result and member profile pages. See examples below.

The Chat uses a popup window, therefore you must enable popups in your browser.

How do I know when I have Chat messages waiting for me?

Just below the main menu is the message notification area.

When you have messages, you will see the following:

Why doesn't the Chat pop-up window display?

If your browser is set to block all pop-ups, then you will not be able to use our Chat instant messenger.
