How to Extend Matches on Bumble?

  • Extending Bumble matches shows genuine interest and provides more opportunity to connect.
  • Use the extra time to send messages that stand out.
  • For a profile that keeps connections alive, get your profile reviewed by our AI and Dating Coaches for personalized enhancement tips.

Have you ever opened up your Bumble app and came across a profile you just couldn’t wait to talk to, only to realize that their profile is about to expire? Bumble only gives users 24 hours to message their matches. Once that 24 hours is up and no message has been sent, your match disappears, and your potential perfect match and chance at a connection with them are gone.


Since women have to send the first message on Bumble, you have to sit by and wait to get a message before starting a conversation. So, what can you do if your Bumble matches expire? Fortunately, Bumble has a feature known as Extend match that allows you to extend matches for another 24 hours.


Here is everything you need to know about using the Extend match feature to give your matches more time to send you a message.

Many Bumble users don’t spend their entire day scrolling through the dating app, swiping and messaging new matches. Sometimes, people forget to open their dating apps and message their matches – even if they’re interested in them. Once 24 hours pass without a message, both profiles in the match queue expire. That’s what makes Bumble Extend Match such a great feature to use.


With Bumble Extend Match, you won’t have to worry about missing out on connections with your potential perfect match. You can easily extend your match for another 24 hours which gives them more time to message you, and also let’s them know you’re interested in them.

Small aside. Did you know it is possible to make your profile more attractive in 2 minutes and get more dates every day?
