Comparing dating apps is easy to do badly. You can pick the metric that flatters you, quote a user count nobody can verify, or invent categories only you satisfy. We tried to do the opposite: eight dimensions anyone notices in their first week, judged only on what each service publishes openly about itself.
That's why you won't find who has the most users, or how many couples anyone has made. Those are the two numbers this industry quotes most and the two nobody outside the company can check. What can be checked is how each product works: whether it requires profile verification, whether it charges differently by gender, whether it lets you talk without an active subscription. That is what's in the table.
And an honest caveat: Tinder, Bumble and Meetic are enormous products with years of history and teams we don't have. On sheer reach, they win. The question this page answers isn't which is biggest — it's which is built for what you're actually looking for.
