Tinder thinks some people will pay almost $500 a month for more ‘efficient ways to find connections’ with its ‘VIP’ plan::Tinder Select is only available to some of the dating app’s “highly engaged and active” users, and it’ll cost about $6,000 a year, Bloomberg reported.
The best thing I’ve ever done with my mental health is stop chasing the idea that being with someone is the key to happiness. Things like tinder just prey on insecurities with false promises.
Yeah, next thing you know they’ll be sliding offers to the most liked people’s profiles offering the chance to become compensated daters if they go out with VIP profiles, no pressure to do anything sexual though, because that’d be illegal.
Honestly, this 500$ a month thing is just sad, because it’ll definitely work (financially), and Tinder will do some shenanigans with the algorithm to make it seem a little worth it, and it’ll just definitely not be worth it to the people paying 500$ a month.
Most of the people who are going to pay for it, are the ones who the algo has buried so hard they get shown to no one. So it will sadly give them fat better results…
Yes, some people are unfortunately desperate to find love.
Tinder is absolutely not the way to do it, but they’re emotionally susceptible to this sort of manipulative abuse, so…yeah. Tinder will rake in the cash.
Honestly like no amount of money will change the results if your dating profile is shit.
If you’re a whale willing to spend 500 on tinder, spend it on marketing yourself. New photos, personal trainer, hobbies and seriously important - new clothes that fit you.
Lot of single people I meet always say “I don’t want to change who I am”. Changing the way you look and feel isn’t changing who you are. Unless you’re actually as shallow as your outfit. It’s not lame to see what the trends are and even ask a salesperson of the opposite sex for advice. Putting yourself out there is all aspects of such.
Present your best self. Because that’s all a person swiping can judge you on. That 5 seconds.
I just want to show them my butthole. But now I have to tell all my neighbors I like to show people my butthole and no one seems interested when I tell them.
That honestly makes me kind of sad. Not even specifically the escorting part but just like… that seems like a small amount of money for that on the escort’s end. Like for example, I am pretty sure there are OF girls who sell nudes for that much lol
I’m only moderately classy, but I’ll do it for $400. I’m really good at pretending to be interested in stuff I don’t care about, so they can talk about whatever weirdness they got going on that makes them willing to pay $500 a month for fuckin tinder. What a steal!
What do you think this is? Tinder will pay $150 for a girl to go on a couple dates and pocket the $350. The “enhanced profile” will have a near 100% success rate, if success is defined as a date with a girl who’s only interested in money.
They’ve probably already workshopped a name for the “content creators”.

Tinder, like most businesses, is hunting whales.
Funnily enough, that’s how a lot of people will describe their user experience as well.
if someone pays 500 bucks to get a date, then they are getting nothing but gold diggers.
Hookers would be cheaper and easier
These are hookers… just expensive ones
At what point does this just become pimping?
(Surely they could make even more money by compensating people who are more in-demand for their time …)

If the dating apps can’t provide decent results even once in a while then why would I pay?
“There are several emails from people who are interested, just pay a subscription fee to read them.”
Pays sub fee and find out the emails are just spam.
Yeah I’ll pay hundreds for this.

Your comment is a screenplay waiting to happen.
It shows that you have $500 to throw in the garbage. That would interest a lot of people.

Or just spend the $500 on an escort if you’re that desperate. You can get a pretty classy gal for $500.

Tinder sucks and their support team is dumb as bricks.
$500 a month? Fuuuuuck that noise
At those prices, that’s not the only thing getting fucked.
Super effective. It weeds out the 95 percenters!
