Hundreds of Tinder employees call LA and the surrounding area home. We’re devastated for the tens of thousands of people whose worlds have been forever changed by this disaster. As these wildfires continue to impact the community we love, the Tinder team is stepping up to support our neighbors, colleagues, and first responders across the City of Angels. 👇Here's how we're taking action and how you can get involved: → Partnering with local organizations, including It's Bigger Than Us, South Pasadena YMCA, and Pasadena Humane Society to distribute essential supplies to displaced individuals → Collaborating with our local vendor, Bruce's Kitchen, to provide meals to firefighters and volunteers on the frontlines → Match Group is matching and double-matching employee donations to local organizations making an impact If you want to join us in supporting LA, you can donate directly to our partners at World Central Kitchen at https://wck.org/donate and the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation at https://lnkd.in/eh2ww8X.
Are you verified on LinkedIn? Probably. Verification check marks signal trust and give people confidence that you’re the real deal. It’s no different in the Tinder world, where users who are ID and Photo Verified have higher match rates, on average. So our Australia team partnered with WESNET, Australia's leading women's organization working to eliminate domestic and family violence, for an ID verification drive to encourage more daters to up their trust factor on Tinder (and increase their chances of making a real-life connections). What was the secret sauce to selling out every spot at this beachside event (aptly called “Verified QT”)? Here are 3 things that got daters in Bondi Beach excited about verification and safety: 💘 Better profiles. Daters who participated in Verified QT scored a new profile pic from a world-class photographer, plus a local dating expert was on hand for 1:1 sessions filled with profile building tips and advice. 💘 Facts. 69% of users under 30 in Australia are interested in seeing verified profiles and 66% of Aussie daters specifically want to see a badge to indicate verified status. Armed with the knowledge that ID and Photo Verified daters get a higher match rate on average, our team was on the ground to spread the word and walk daters through the verification process. 💘 Bold brand placement! It was impossible to miss our bright pink booth. As one content creator said, the activation was giving “big green tick energy.” And despite the torrential downpour, more than 500 people came through. The results? Over 5,000 new ID Verified accounts, and a donation to WESNET. Now THAT is a green flag. Check out the full press release for more on our commitment to encouraging daters to use verified profiles: https://lnkd.in/gsu-7eah

Friendship. Relationship. Viral, award-winning dance partnership. What’s the common denominator? It Starts With A Swipe™. As we head into peak dating season (seriously, data shows that between now and February 14th, users will send 298.4 million more likes compared to the rest of the year), we’re highlighting the real-life connections that started with a Swipe™. Meet Victoria Vassiliki Daldas and Theo Zeitner, the infamous dance couple known as Brutalismus 3000. The brand-new video in our “It Starts With A Swipe™” campaign captures their story in reverse, taking us back to the moment they first met. On Tinder. “The story of Victoria and Theo of Brutalismus 3000 shows how Tinder empowers this new generation of daters to create connections. Their journey is a testament to the fact that every match, Wherever It Takes You, has the potential to change lives in ways that most people could never imagine,” says Paolo Lorenzoni, VP of EMEA Marketing. Need inspiration for dating season? Catch a first look at the bold video featuring Brutalismus 3000 below. A big thank you to everyone who brought this European campaign to life, especially the talented ideators and co-creators at LePub.
If you’re single, January 5th is one date you won’t want to miss. Our data shows that on the first Sunday of the New Year, “Dating Sunday,” the number of ‘Likes’ sent globally is nearly 15% higher than any other day of the year. It’s the perfect occasion to hard launch your relationship goals – or be wrong about what you can find on Tinder. The new videos for our award-winning campaign, “It Starts With A Swipe™,” invite daters to reconsider what they think they know about the world’s most popular dating app. (That’s us.) We all know it sucks to be wrong about how much spicy food you can handle on a first date. Or the romantic vibes of your weekend getaway. Or that “shortcut” you know better than Google Maps… But it’s great to be wrong about Tinder. Just ask the people behind the real-life relationships that start on Tinder every 3 seconds. They’ll tell you: It Starts With A Swipe™. Learn more about our brand-new campaign videos in ADWEEK: https://lnkd.in/gsQ3tge5

Exciting news as we wrap up 2024 with a groundbreaking Tinder Asia campaign: Tinder Passport Portal! This also marks our First-ever Cross country experiential stunt in Asia. The Passport "Portal" bridges the gap between Bangkok (Thailand) and Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam), offering users a real-time Tinder Passport experience. Participants can engage in video chats, likes, and matches, mirroring the interactions on the Tinder app itself. During the 3-day activation, we witnessed incredible virality, with 80% of impressions stemming from organic user-generated content. The buzz extended beyond borders, with Gen Z audiences from Japan, Korea, India, and Southeast Asia eagerly speculating on the next destination for this "Tinder Box" 😁 Personally, what I found most rewarding was observing the genuine eagerness to connect, the lively conversations, and the sheer excitement from users as they bridged the gap in person, overcoming language barriers. Ultimately, it's the shared human desire for connection and the array of possibilities that resonates with us all, facilitated by dating apps like Tinder. A heartfelt thank you to Daniel Kim for championing this idea from the start, our valued agency partner Happiness Saigon and our dedicated colleagues at Tinder/Match Group (Global Marketing, Comms, Legal, Localization, Product, Country Managers) for coming together to bring this ambitious campaign to life.

Since 2012, Tinder has been on a mission to meet the human need for connection. Here’s what our team is focusing on heading into 2025: • With over 100 billion matches, our mission to be the go-to app for every new generation of daters to form real-life connections is stronger than ever. That impact continues to be our North Star in 2025 as we introduce new product innovations. • Continuous clarity how each and every individual at Tinder directly contributes to our overarching goals and fuels our forward momentum. I want every person on the Tinder team to know how much value they add to our mission and business. • Appreciation for every department and team. Each of us is solving hard problems every day, and the domino effect of those solutions and innovative thinking coming together is what moves us all forward and touches our millions of users around the world. I’m grateful for each and every person dedicated to redefining what’s possible in online dating at Tinder. And finally, we’re staying inspired. The work that we get to do every day is the best kind of work. It brings people together. It changes lives. And it means something. I hope that in 2025, between deadlines and beta testing, we’ll take the time to remember that the ultimate measure of our success is the relationships that start on our platform every day. Leading this team is an honor. And I can’t wait for what 2025 has in store for each and every person at (and on) Tinder!
In 2025, thousands of people in France will receive a love letter from a very special admirer: themselves. It’s all part of the "Mahfouf magic” we created with Léna Mahfouf, the magnetic YouTuber, content creator, and visionary behind Hôtel Mahfouf. We teamed up with Léna to invite thousands of people across France to reflect on everything they’ve accomplished in 2024 and write down their hopes and dreams for 2025 in a letter to their future self, postage included. Complete with drinks like “It’s a Match-a,” this event was a celebration of the essential ingredient in every relationship: empowerment, of yourself and those around you. Want to write your own self-love letter? You still can! Open Tinder if you’re located in France or click here to step into the online extension of Hôtel Mahfouf and pour your heart out: https://lnkd.in/ehnKnFem
