Tinder Launches $499 USD-Per-Month “Tinder Select” Membership::Tinder has rolled out its promised high-end membership, a pricey $499 per month subscription dubbed “Tinder Select,” which includes unique perks like the

It just sounds like identifying rich sucker’s to be plucked like apples and slaughtered like fattened calves by the trickier woman of tinder.
If you are at the point where paying $499+ a month looks like the only way you’ll ever have a significant other or even just sex just invest that money in therapy or drugs or a super high end sex doll or a high class hooker but not in fucking Tinder. Jesus.
As someone who’s never used it, what features are there that get paywalled? I have a very naïve idea about what it is like.
Last time I used it, things like seeing who liked your profile and super liking other profiles (normally you get limited number of those and they indicate that you’re really interested), and seeing who viewed your profile.
One major issue is that Tinder is full of bots. The company doesn’t sanitize it cuz it’s in their interest to have men feel like there are more women on it than there actually are.
Well I’m glad I never got into it. Everything about that just feels icky.
Maybe I’m just old, but I like the idea of meeting in real life and progressing from there to be preferable rather than meeting because of an app. That puts the first real life encounter in a weird context, so I think it’s so much more natural if you encounter them genuinely first and then get attracted to each other just a better system overall.
I mean I guess it can work out, but it just seems extremely uncomfortable all around.
There are people so desperate for a fuck that they will pay this money. Will it solve the problem that the number of (real, existing) women on such platforms is lower than the demand? Probably not.
women are going to start saying they won’t match with guys who aren’t subscribing to this. I guarantee it.
I ain’t see she’s a gold digga…
sayin. Though the way its said could sound like see…
Then they are going to have to earn that highest status rating
women are going to start saying they won’t match with guys who aren’t subscribing to this. I guarantee it.
I assume they’ll eventually just pay women to chat with these men.
The Ashley Madison approach - hire hookers to meet up with them.
members can choose to display their status with an exclusive SELECT badge on their profile.
Now I ain’t say she a gold digger…
But she ain’t datting no broke ninjas
That plan better deliver hoes at my address
You got a green thumb zaddy? 🥺👉👈👩🌾
Local Asian massage parlor is like $150 plus tip for full service.
Oh, that is just awful. I for one will never go anywhere near which location again?
Fuck Tinder
Well that’s not dystopian at all
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The news was first reported by Bloomberg, and follows parent company Match Group’s earlier confirmation that Tinder would expand its membership options to include a new, high-end product catering to Gen Z users sometime this fall.
Tinder says that less than 1% of users will be allowed to gain access to this premium product, and members can choose to display their status with an exclusive SELECT badge on their profile.
Inspiration for this members-only club within Tinder comes from Match’s July 2022 acquisition of another high-end dating app, The League, which could cost users up to $1,000 per week.
In addition, Select members’ profiles will be shown unblurred in the Like You grid in the app for up to seven days, even if they don’t pay for Tinder Gold or Platinum subscriptions.
The company doesn’t detail how this technology works or how it rates these so-called “exceptional connections,” but one might imagine they include other Select members or those other users liked the most.
To apply for Tinder Select, users must have at least four photos, five interests, a bio with a minimum of 15 characters, show a relationship intent, be photo-verified and, importantly, have way too much money to spend on dating apps.

Well, that’s as good of a reason as any to delete the app.
For most people their choice of life partner is the most important career decision they will ever make. 500 bucks could be a smart investment if it improves the odds of hooking up with the right person.
lol look guys we found him: the target audience for Tinder’s offer
It won’t though. Tinder can show their profile to more people but if those people still don’t like it, they’re not gonna match. For a lot of people, I have to imagine that seeing that someone paid $500 a month for a dating app is going to be a big red flag. I mean, it’ll bring in gold diggers, but that’s about it.
Pretty sure I read that you can disable displaying the badge
are people seriously looking for life partners on tinder now?
Yes, because meeting people online is convenient, sometimes more realistic than meeting people irl, and sometimes it’s the only viable option to meet people, and because tinder is used pretty much everywhere and by a lot of people, it’s a better option than other dating sites/apps.
It’s a fucking shit app to finding a life partner due to people leaving their bios empty, and a good number of people looking for short term fun, so finding a long term partner comes down to luck.
But for $500 a month you’ll have more luck.
Next year they’ll be introducing the whale tier which will be $1500 a month and they’ll guarantee you at least 37% more luck!
The most pathetic thing is that there are enough lonely dudes out there that some would actually consider this service.
So corporations were thinking why should women be the only ones who can extort a bunch of money from lonely dudes… why not us too?
Can we start a fediverse dating app?
I’m currently visiting the Ambien walrus writing this so forgive me if this idea is screwy, but I’d love to create a new space.
It would be 99% dudes. Oh wait
Sounds good to me. Maybe it’s just a matter of branding.
Always has been. Love your crew ;)
Jokes on you, I’m into that shit.
I was gonna say it didn’t sound screwy until you mentioned the Ambien walrus, but, apparently, that’s a real thing.
It is absolutely a real thing. I’ve done some wild things on it. But I’m glad the idea itself doesn’t sound bad.
There’s a FLOSS dating platform: https://alovoa.com

Sure, I’ll start one for you for a meager $498/month
A mere pittance my dear…
I think you’re massively underestimating the amount of effort required to keep sketchiness off of a dating platform
I did say that I was on Ambien haha.
