Tinder Revenue and Usage Statistics (2024)

Tinder is a dating app that matches users to others based on geographic proximity. It designed (and patented) the swipe interface, in which a user swipes right to ‘like’ or left to ‘pass’. If two users both like each others, it’s a match, and they are then able to chat through the app.

While deciding, Tinder users are able to view selected pictures of their potential match, alongside a short bio and linked Spotify and Instagram accounts if connected.

With its basis in physical proximity, it dispenses with the complex algorithms utilized by other mobile dating apps and reduces it to the simplest level that you might find in real life: physical attraction. For that reason, Tinder has gained a reputation as a ‘hook-up app’, a reputation that competitors like Bumble have been quick to capitalize on.

The app was founded in 2012 in Hatch Labs, a startup incubator run by InterActiveCorp (former parent company of Match Group). Sean Rad (former CEO and chairman) and Justin Mateen (former CMO), who had met at the University of Southern California, designed the matchmaking algorithm.

After initially being trialed in a series of US college (university) campuses, Tinder was rolled out fully to great success, processing 350 million swipes per day by late 2013 (that’s 4,000 per second), rising to one billion swipes per day before the end of 2014.

The free-to-use app introduced a premium subscription model in 2015 with added features (Tinder Plus), and a third level in 2017 (Tinder Gold). One-off in-app purchases can also be made.

Since then, Tinder has only grown bigger to become an irreducible element in the modern dating landscape. Even with new competition from Bumble in the US and Badoo in Europe, it remains the most popular dating app.
