Cancel Tinder Gold: on iPhone, Android, refund

Tinder, arguably the most popular dating application, has two paid versions that allow you to access enhanced options for finding a partner. If you are already signed up to the Gold version and wish to unsubscribe but don't know how, this article will explain what needs to be done.

What are Tinder Plus and Tinder Gold?

Firstly, Tinder Plus and Tinder Gold are the two premium versions of Tinder. With Tinder Plus you have access to certain additional features such as unlimited ‘Likes’, being able to undo a swipe (‘Rewind’), 5 ‘Super Likes’ every day, 1 ‘Boost’ per month, a ‘Passport’, a feature that allows you to find profiles outside of your current location, all over the world and finally, you can enjoy Tinder without any advertising.

In the case of Tinder Gold, in addition to everything you get with Tinder Plus, you will be able to see who has swiped right on you, without having to have swiped right on them. You can all access ‘Top Picks’, a function that shows you the most interesting and popular profiles every day.

To subscribe to any of these premium versions of Tinder, you just need to go to your profile, and go to Settings > Get Tinder Plus or Get Tinder Gold. The first option costs $9.99 per month and the second $13.99. To gain access to Tinder Gold, you will first need to have already activated Tinder Plus.

But what can you do if these versions no longer interest you, either because of their price, or simply because you have found your better half and no longer have need of Tinder. If that is the case, we will explain how to cancel your subscription.

Therefore, to modify or cancel your subscription, you must go to your respective app store.
