Why Bumble is so expensive?

[haynes]

The premium montly price is 40 usd. Why is it that expensive? You even don't know if you find someone.

Yeah, Bumble's premium pricing can definitely feel a bit steep, especially when you're not guaranteed to find a match. The premium services increase your chances to fşnding a good match like seeing who liked your profile, or unlimited swipes option. And the price comes from these features.
If you're unsure, you might try the free version first and see how it goes. If you find that you're getting enough out of the app without the premium features, you might not need to upgrade. If the features sound like they'd really improve your experience or increase your chances, maybe a one-month test could be worth it to see if the cost feels justified to you. Just keep an eye on how much you're spending versus what you're getting back from it.

All dating apps are a waste of money, but if you are going to use one, then Bumble is not it.

For Hinge and Tinder, at least you can see who is active, can find more people, and just a better product. However, I do believe it is a mistake to rely on them if you want a relationship - only do it for hookups. Those apps are meant to be superficial.

Don't use it if that is your decision.

When I was dating, I used Bumble and the women I met on there were all good women. Of course, Bumble doesn't guarantee a match. Why would you expect that?

[dustybiker2]

Because they can. They only charge what people have been willing to pay.

[laly520]

its waste of money n time to use apps like that

[Avicenna]

You don't have to use the premium features that you have to pay for. In fact, I'd advise against it.

[Avicenna]

Bumble works best for people with college degrees because you have a better dating pool. I had a lot of success with it and never paid for premium features.

[Drumlin2001]

Not sure I ever paid for it. Met my now fiancé on Bumble, we now have 2 kids. If I were ever single again I would sign up again.
I suppose question is how long do you expect it to take to find someone, and do you see the few hundred bucks it costs as a good investment

[strateguy632]

because people leave it after one month so need to get big amount. but that tells you not to bother even one month.

some say to keep the low lifes away but i doubt that is the reason. in general date apps are scam wastes.

[jshm2]

Because it's an a entertainment service, not a dating service. Go to e-harmony or some other more reputable site, for dates.

People use bumble mainly for the chat and patter.

[slatyb]

They will set the price at whatever they think will maximize their revenue. The marginal cost per user is nearly zero.

[NathanDavis]

if you see 40 bucks as expensive... maybe you should not be dating

[Rangers]

Get off of those dating apps in America. Go on International cupid and select Ukraine or Israel

The girls will be staging up gladiator battles for your affections and they're all beautiful

[genericname85]

you can use it for free. if they wanna make it expensive for the people who decide to pay, that's completely fine in my opinion.

[sheikalana]

Well, you can use it for free instead of paying a monthly/yearly allowance.

[BonzoInBitburg]

Approaching women is free and you'll have hardly any competition

[MrDaveAPSI]

You shouldn't have to pay anything for dating apps. That's what's so stupid about them

Pay to find people?

[OtterMan68]

weed out those who are just looking or the riff raff

[DextroShade]

Unless you are Chad Thundercock it's a scam.

[Anonymous]

Because there is a sucker born every minute and they know it.

[Anonymous]

It’s expensive because companies know that desperate men can be exploited for money.

[boggboss]

Because they know people will pay it

[DarkWinterNights]

You have to pay money to use Bumble? Yikes.

[SolitarySolace]

They’re using the money to fund Planned parenthood

[itsclearlynicholas]

I use it for free I don't use the pay features

[Booklover_90]

This is another reason I don’t do online dating.

[Sameone]

Lol 😂
