So, what are you waiting for to take charge of your dating life?
How prone is your profile to dates?
STOP swiping for nothing, get data-driven feedback and a clear action plan to get more dates.
The first thing you might want to know about Hinge is: how many people are on the dating app? Hinge has about 23 million registered app users. This is considerably less than the whopping 75 million people who use Tinder, and the 50 million people who use Bumble. So, if you’re not already registered on these apps and want to expand your search, they could open up many new possibilities.
Given the promotional content around Hinge as the app designed to be deleted, it should be obvious: Hinge mainly attracts people looking for a serious relationship. This is not the hook-up app, unlike other dating apps, so it's not meant to keep you coming back!
87% of users on Hinge are looking for serious relationships. This compares to only 50% of Tinder users who are looking for serious relationships.
An online dating social media app that isn't about endless scrolling? Who knew!
There's a difference between total users and regular users at any given time. As we'll see, Hinge actually pulls in a ton of users every day.
The number of daily Hinge users is about 15 million. That's a lot! If you’re looking to cast your net a bit wider to find the right match for you, why not try Match.com? It has a huge 30 million daily users, so you have even more potential matches to meet.
Meanwhile, the number of monthly users on the dating app is about 16 million. It appears that each Hinge user is really committed to making the app work for them, hence the similar number between daily and monthly users on the app.
That’s a ton of users! How many of them did you encounter? You can actually find out the exact number by using ROAST Wrapped! Much like the end-of-year Spotify trend, ROAST Wrapped takes you through your whole history on the dating app. You can compare with your friends to see who was the thirstiest, meaning who swiped right on the most people but got the least matches. We know it wasn’t you.
You don't have to feel shy on Hinge, where much of the user base is going to be more discriminating with their online dating. This is one app where being yourself yields the highest reward.
Did you know that most of our users were unaware of the exponential increase of dates by improving their profiles?
After receiving their profile AI score, they noticed a significant difference in their swiping game.

If you know how many people are paying for the app, it helps you figure out if it's an app you have to pay for. As it stands, 1.1 million people have paid for Hinge, which makes up about 4.6% of all users. As such, the vast majority of Hinge users get by without paying. Similarly, only 0.2% of Plenty of Fish users are paying users, so if you’re looking for an app that can be used without having to pay for extras, then POF could be for you.
In 2024, Hinge made $284 million.
Did you know Hinge's revenue goes towards Match Group, who also own OKCupid and Tinder?
It might help to know what people are paying for when they pay for the dating app.
Hinge+ gives you the following features:
In line with Hinge being one of the more serious online dating services, free Hinge dating only gives you eight likes per day. This forces you to be more selective with your likes so your first date is that much more special.
Hinge can be thought of as something like an experiment for Match Group, who also owns Tinder. As the banner app for serious online dating, Hinge has making a lot of app users quite happy. They have far fewer paying users than Tinder, meaning their formula must be working. People aren't concerned as much with paying as they are talking and seeking serious relationships. That's something positive to be said about this unique online dating platform.

What kind of people are on Hinge and how does it compare to other dating sites? Hinge has a somewhat more favorable representation for women than other dating apps like Tinder, with more than 1/3rd of Hinge users being women!
As far as Hinge users go, 64% are men and 36% are women. This may be down to the unique messaging style on the dating app and the fact that users can't message as many people or as freely as on dating apps like Tinder.
The average Hinge user is 25 years old, which is about the same average age for dating app users on the whole. Online dating is still one of the most viable ways to meet new people for 20 and 30 somethings.
The people who access Hinge are predominantly Gen Z and millennials, much like with other dating sites and online dating platforms. If you’re looking for a slightly more mature age group, why not try Match.com which has an average age of 36, or POF with an average age of 28.
The vast majority of Hinge users are messaging in the US, with a significant portion of Hinge users also hailing from the UK, Canada, Germany, and India.
The number of dating app users in all of these countries is only climbing, making now a great time to get on the dating app of your choice.

Lost?

Men can have a hard time on dating sites, but the numbers are actually quite favorable to men when you think about it. Dating apps might play like video games, but they're not designed to give you a win every single time. That would just be weird! Rather, online dating should be approached as a complement to a full and active life. That way, when you meet someone from Hinge in real life, it surpasses all your expectations.
The success rate for a guy, where the ratio of matches to likes is concerned, is about 1 match out of every 40 likes he gives.
Meanwhile, about 52% of guys using Hinge make less than one match a day.
Further, 13% of guys get less than one match a week on Hinge. That means you're actually pretty likely to get a match if you put a little effort in!
Don't let these numbers dissuade you. All you're looking for with Hinge is a chance to meet that special someone. When it comes to special someones, who cares how much you have to go through to meet them? A lifelong bond is worth any cost and any amount of waiting. All of that time you spent swiping in vain on dating apps has just been leading you to this moment. You match with someone on Hinge. You share a laugh. You meet for a first date, then a second date.
Want this to be you? Make sure you make your profile the best it can be before you start Hinge dating. You'll meet someone, it's only a matter of time.
Online dating is a different game for girls, as they must essentially sort through a huge amount of candidates and determine who is the right one. For guys, it might seem like they have it better, but trust us when we say it can be a lot worse a lot of the time.
The success rate for girls with the ratio of matches to likes is about 45%.
Guys, before you get jealous, would you really rather have 50 weird people sending you strange messages every day? Is that really the kind of online dating experience you'd like to have? Think about that next time you send messages on dating apps!
How do guys and gals differ in their use of the dating app? Predictably, men like a lot more, with 1 out of every 3 profiles getting a like. The swipe statistics are always interesting to note between men and women in online dating!
Women tend to like only one out of every 16 guys they encounter on Hinge. Pretty standard numbers as far as these things go, nothing new to see here.
Ready to ditch the dating overwhelm? Relax, we've got you covered. it just takes 2 min to begin!
