Online dating has been a pretty active scene since the very early days of the internet. Sites like Match.com and eHarmony have been using the magic of modern technology for years to match up singles, but the game was taken to a whole new level with the advent of the mobile app. While some of the originals have adapted and still hold their own, a new wave of mobile-first platforms have joined the fray led by tinder.
In just a couple of years since launch, tinder’s simple UX and social/geo matching ability have made it a quick leader in the mobile dating space. I was curious just how big tinder has become, so I did a little searching recently. Here are a few of the more interesting tinder statistics I was able to dig up. As always, be sure to check back in the future as I will be updating this post as new and updated stats become available.
This report is a digital collection of every tinder statistic I have been able to dig up over the years; 40+ of them including stats on:
- Users
- Swipes
- Matches
- Demographics
- Etc.- all in one place
I try to go through each and every stat regularly and update as much as possible, but we all know that some stats are easier to track down than others. As always, every stat is linked to its original source and has the source date listed.

Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these stats come from Tinder’s own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100% accurate.
