Introducing Tinder Social

UPDATE: Any user who would prefer not to be added to groups can opt out of Tinder Social through his/her settings to no longer appear on their friends' lists. We are only testing it at this point, but it's important to note Tinder's not a secret considering 70% of users download Tinder because their friends recommend it.

What takes an average night out with your friends to the next level? Meeting great groups of new people, and turning a basic night out into a night you’ll never forget. But, these moments are rare. Too often, your nights with friends consist of not knowing what to do, and figuring out where other interesting people you want to meet are going. But what if you can see who's going out and where they’re going, before you and your friends decide where to go? What if you could break the ice and get introduced to them before you arrive?

That’s why we created Tinder Social, a new product that we’re testing with a small group of users in Australia. It's not group dating, it's a fun new way to meet new people out with your friends. While this is just a test for now, we look forward to launching it globally soon!

With Tinder Social, your group can match with other groups and find out where they’re going. To use Tinder Social, just start a group with the friends you’re going out with, and then swipe and match with other groups also going out. You can then chat with your group matches or see their status to find out what they're up to and where everyone’s headed. It’s a way to go places full of people you’ve already matched with, making socializing so much easier once you’re out and about. Whether you’re looking for groups you share common interests with, or you’re looking for a completely new adventure, Tinder Social is a better way to go out with friends.

Tinder has always been about making you more social in the real world, not the digital world. So try our new product, get off your phone, meet more people and be more Social.
