Tinder vs Match.com
Looking for the perfect partner is not a walk in a park. You have to muster the confidence to talk to them, know them better, and survive first dates that could either be really bad or wonderful.

Fortunately, there are dating applications and websites that ease this process. With Tinder and Match.com, you can be picking your future date in the comfort of your home or wherever you are on the move.

The convenience of having conversations with these people and knowing if you like them or not (and vice-versa) can make everything easier.

Today, we take a look at two dating platforms: Tinder and Match.com. We also want to hear which one you think is better and what experiences you have had.

Availability
Tinder is available worldwide, making it one of the most popular applications among the young ones (and even the oldies, sometimes) everywhere. It is available in 30 different languages. It is used on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets with location capability. All you need is internet access and a connection to the internet.

The same goes with Match.com, which is a more conventional online dating site. You have to be connected to be able to use it. It is currently available in 25 countries, and it supports more than eight languages.

User Friendliness
After signing up on Tinder using your Facebook account, you upload a few pictures of yourself, write an optional bio and then select your potential future date by swiping the night away. Swiping is very straightforward. You like someone you think you are attracted to by swiping right, and you swipe left if you are not interested in the person. Aside from the physical appearance of the person, you can also read their bio and see if you like what they put there.

On Tinder though, a person may opt not to put anything on their bio, so you are sometimes left with a face, a name and the age for your viewing purposes. However, since you are connected to Facebook, a requirement before you can use the application, you can see if you have mutual friends or interests with the owner of the profile you are looking at.

Being a little bit more conventional, Match.com initially gives you a questionnaire before you start the dive in a sea of people looking for dates. The questionnaire includes questions on the age range you prefer as well as other things about yourself. This will enable the site to know your preferences, and hopefully, recommend profiles that are, more or less, your type or likely to be compatible.

Free or Not?
Pricing differs for both applications. Tinder is free to use, but the free version has some limited features. Tinder Plus, Tinder’s optional paid version may cost you between 5 and 30 dollars depending on your location and the plan you purchase. This will allow you to send out more super likes (a feature that lets the person you super liked that you really like their profile).

In addition, your profile is visible to anyone, even if he or she is not in the same vicinity or even country as you.

Match.com will cost you approximately $22 to $28 to get paid features such as checking out who viewed you or who favorited your profile. You can also send messages to potential dates which is not allowed if you are using the site for free.
