FAQ

Common questions — Tinder and Mad2Moi.

The right choice depends on what you seek: quick dating in a metropolis → Tinder. Serious dating with healthier framing → Mad2Moi.

  • Is Tinder free?

    Sign-up and basic swiping are free, but core features are quickly throttled. Likes capped at ~50/day for non-Premium men, "who liked you" is paid (essential to 80% of UX), rewind is paid. Tinder Plus = €20/mo, Gold = €30/mo, Platinum up to €80/mo.

  • More fake profiles on Tinder or Mad2Moi?

    Tinder has a huge volume of reported fake profiles despite algorithmic detection — the price of its size. Mad2Moi reviews every report, with automated analysis first and a human pass on what it flags, and offers optional video selfie verification. Neither app can guarantee there are no fake profiles.

  • Can Mad2Moi replace Tinder?

    For most cases yes, except if you absolutely want the maximum profiles in a major metro. If you're in a smaller city, in a couple seeking another, in the LGBTQ+ community, or simply tired of the Tinder model, Mad2Moi is probably better suited.
