Tinder Gold Review: Is It Worth the Upgrade?

  • Considering Tinder Gold? Our 2024 review covers its worth and the premium features it offers.
  • Enhance your Tinder experience and see if the investment elevates your love life.
  • Maximize your Tinder Gold investment with our AI and Dating Coaches. They provide the insights needed to shine on the platform.

Tinder Gold is one of Tinder's best-selling features to date, which offers Tinder Plus features and much more!


Tinder Plus includes unlimited likes and a few other perks like rewind. On the other hand, Tinder Gold has all of these features with some extras included such as a boost in your profile position so you can be seen by more people.


It also includes an increased number of swipes each day (10 instead of 5) and one free "boost" every month that allows you to reach up to 100 potential matches at a time. The question then becomes: is Tinder gold worth it?


Finally, what should we actually think, given that there is the big brother Tinder Platinum just round the corner?‌‌

Tinder Gold buys you everything included in Tinder Plus and some others.


Let's start with the obvious. You will get:

  • Unlimited swipe amount*[Tinder plus feature]*


Finally more than 100 likes per day! However, do not abuse this!


We talk about the risks for your ELO in our article to know everything on the topic!


  • Rewind. You swiped too fast, have second thoughts? You can come back on a previous profile. [Tinder plus feature].
  • Passport. Swipe anywhere. Made popular during COVID as it was free, passport enables you to locate anywhere in order to swipe in a different city. Ideal to plan a trip in advance! [Tinder plus feature]
  • No more ads. Like in any paying scheme of Tinder, you won't have to endure the pain of swiping on ads! [Tinder plus feature]
  • Privacy boosts. Privacy is super important for all of us. Some like to stay in the shadows even more! [Tinder plus feature]


From Tinder Plus on, you can now have your profile only shown to people  YOU previously liked. I wouldn't recommend maximizing your likes but can be useful for some of us 😈.


Additionally, you can add some mystery to your profile.


You can hide your age and position. a useful strategy to hint at the curiosity of people. However, like any bold move, it can backslash hard as well.



Tinder boosts


You get one free boost per month! That's a huge boost of your exposure, for 30min.


I'll give you a free tip about this. A key point of Tinder is to be active. During a boost, your likes are more shown to girls than during regular time!


Capitalize on this! Keep swiping for that 30min! Don't be lazy!


Although, you get a chance to buy the SUPER BOOSTS. 6h, 12h boosts. The NUKES as we call them. We will write in another article how to use them as a weapon at your service effectively!



Super likes


You get no less than 5 super likes per day. 5 chances to stand-out from competition! Super likes are said to bring an additional 30% success rate compared to a regular like. Interesting!



Top picks


Every day you get 4-10 profiles chosen by Tinder to match YOUR taste. A good opportunity to match profiles you REALLY like.


And you get those at the end of your finger, without having to continuously swipe left all the profiles you are not into. A time saver.


We all know the pain of having to spend 15 minutes to just find 3 profiles you like. Tinder Gold takes care of that for you.


A time saver!


If you are someone who is really busy or on the go, Tinder gold is your best friend! We will come back on that!



See who likes you


Tinder Gold enables you to finally quit playing, and get the oracle skills: see who liked you straight away.


Not only that, Tinder Gold offers the ability to see who has been liking your profile, with this sign:


You will see it while swiping. You can know for instance for sure that Erin already liked you!


The biggest perk is actually to have this big EGO place: see at ONCE all the matches waiting for your approval:‌


You just need to click on the top left icon, and access your potential matches!


Note Tinder teasing me to jump to Tinder Platinum!‌


I see you coming to me like


"Yes, but Ben, I could access those profiles for free"


Again, YES and NO !


First, the pile of profiles in front of you is very big. In free mode, you can just swipe 50/day. This pile is not static! It can change each time you reconnect.


Second, Tinder is likely to still show your profile to people slightly out of your search criteria. Good surprises can happen!


So, another HUGE time saver you can use! Especially at when you first subscribe and can go through ALL those matches, like a kid on Christmas day.

Now that we have covered the official perks of Tinder Gold, let's talk a little bit about the hidden perks.


Those are mechanics we observed through our trial-and-error, and are happy to share with you!


First of all, the ELO boost. Tinder is very likely to favor paying users, so they keep paying. Therefore, your likes will go above the Tinder plus or free user's likes. But probably after the Platinum user's ones!


Conversely, if your ELO is a bit boosted, you are more likely to be shown as a top profile for girls! A more subtle perk is that you no longer live in the dark. You know if you are successful or not.


It is easy to think you have success watching the likes count increase.


Some people may even ask:

"Are all those likes on Tinder Gold real?"

The answer is **YES.**But even better, check it out for yourself!


Is it really the type of girl you like? Are they really nearby?


Those questions get answered with Tinder Gold! It is sometimes the best way to face reality without any excuse and start progressing.

First Tinder Gold is not available in every country yet. But that is a minor downside if it is available in yours!


Do not forget about the dark side of subscribing to Tinder Gold.



Laziness


The biggest con of Gold. After subscribing, you have very conveniently the list of your matches at your disposal.


Without having to swipe! Great. Why losing time swiping then? I can just check this list every day, and also check the tailored swipes suggested by the app.


BIG MISTAKES!


We taught you how to increase your ELO in our article. The main factor to increase your ELO is to be ACTIVE. Active meaning to keep swiping.


The opposite of what Tinder Gold pushes you to do! Watch out! Dating apps can be sneaky.


This is a huge opportunity cost too. As I said, it is very likely that if you swipe on a girl, then she will actually see your profile in the future!


Your swiping action HAS an impact!


From my experience, I still get a LOT of matches from swiping actively.

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


Thanks to our AI trained on 10,000+ pictures rated by hot guys and girls, you will be able to access personalized feedback and tips to boost your dating profile for good.


You will know exactly which pictures are good or not, and most importantly why.

So, what are you waiting for to take charge of your dating life?

Do people know if you have tinder gold?


No of course not. Or actually yes 😏.


First of all No, it is not written if a user has a given subscription. People like to stay discrete most of the time! It avoids judgment from others.However, if you followed the article so far, you may have guessed that there is a trick!


Two features give away that you have bought a subscription:

  • Passport, when it is not free. The only way to swipe somewhere else is then to pay.
  • **Under the radar:**If you hide your age and localization, you give it away too!


This girl for sure at least pays Tinder Plus for instance! Those are the only two ways I found to check if someone is paying Tinder.


Of course, I do not talk about the special super like used in Tinder Platinum! Check out our article about Tinder Platinum if you want to know the tricks!



Can we get Tinder Gold for Free or a trial?


YES!

You have a 3 days free trial period you can use! It can be tricky to think about canceling on time. You have services popping up to remind you of doing so if you are the lazy type!



When should I pay for Tinder Gold?


Well first, Tinder Gold is a BOOSTER. Not a magic pill that will skyrocket your dating results and have you crumble under matches.


The better your profile, the more you will benefit from Tinder Gold.


How do you know if you have worked enough on your profile? Simple, you already have good results.


If you have a few matches every day, then you go put those huge boosters on your profile to reach the top.


On the other hand, if you are stuck at 0 matches, work on your profile first!
