The 5 Best Dating Apps in Singapore
With the smartphone revolution, dating apps are now popular in Singapore as people seek to find their lifelong partners or get simple dates. It’s easier to meet new dates right from your smartphone with the aid of these apps.
The apps have different designs and interfaces, but they all try to get you your dream date. One might get confused when selecting one but don’t worry, this list will give you information that will guide you in making a choice.
Mat & Minah
HOW THIS APP WORKS
Users signup with Facebook and fill in their basic information. It has a swiping pattern similar to a lot of other dating apps. Users swipe left to reject and right to like a person.
PAYMENT PLANS
There are paid subscription options if you want to subscribe to the “Peek & Seek” features of the app. This allows you to find out the users that liked your profile. Peek & Seek costs S$6.98 for a week’s subscription, S$14.98 for a month, and S$44.98 for a year.
Coffee Meets Bagel
HOW THIS APP WORKS
You sign up through Facebook. After creating your profile and stating your preferences, you get one free match (bagel) daily. You have a day to like or reject the bagel. Once you like each other mutually, a temporary chat box is open for both of you to get to know each other. The chat box expires after some days so you must have exchanged contacts if you like the match. You can rematch with bagels or pass them on to friends.
PAYMENT PLANS
Sign up is free with a free daily match but there is an in-app currency of coffee beans. The “beans” are used to unlock other features like mutual friends and getting a second chance with those you have previously skipped. Coffee beans cost US$1.99 (S$2.88) to US$24.99 (S$36.17)
Paktor
HOW THIS APP WORKS
The app works just like Tinder. You sign up with your Facebook account. It feeds you with potential matches. You swipe left to reject and you swipe right to like.
PAYMENT PLANS
You can install the app for free, but you need to become a premium member to reply to messages, see who has liked you, unlock filters and other features. If you are a premium member and you do not get a date after three months, you will get a further three months free.
Premium plans start at S$36.50 a month for a six- month membership plan. A 3-month membership plan costs S$39.66 per month while a month membership plan cost S$47.98 per month.
TIPS
- Visit the app daily for Daily Swipe and other rewards
- Use the filter option to get better matches
Tinder
HOW THIS APP WORKS
After downloading the app, you connect to Facebook to create a profile. The app feeds you with potential matches. You swipe right to like the person and left to skip the person. If you like each other mutually, you can start chatting with each other.
PAYMENT PLANS
The app is free, but you pay for Tinder Plus, a premium service which allows you to meet international people, get unlimited likes, undo swipes and get access to other features. Tinder Plus costs US$9.99 (S$14.46) for users under 28 years old, while it costs US$19.99 (S$28.93) per month for users over 28.
