How to Delete Tinder Account -Deactivate Tinder Account

With 20 billion matches to date, Tinder is one of the world’s most popular dating sites for meeting new people. Think of us as your most dependable wing-man—wherever you go, we’ll be there. If you’re here to meet new people, expand your social network, meet locals when you’re traveling, or just live in the now, you’ve come to the right place. We’re one of the world’s best dating apps for a reason: we spark more than 26 million matches per day. How many dating apps do that?

Swipe. Match. Chat. Date. Tindering is easy and fun—Swipe Right to Like someone, Swipe Left to pass. If someone likes you back, It’s a Match! We invented the double opt-in so that two people will only match when there’s a mutual interest. No stress. No rejection. Just swipe, match, and chat online with your matches, then step away from your phone, meet up in the real world and spark something new.

Deleting Tinder because you want a fresh start?

You’ll want to consider a few things before you delete Tinder:

Deleting then immediately recreating your account can get you shadow-banned, because Tinder sees it as suspicious behavior – you know, something a bot would do. You’ll know you’ve been shadow-banned because you can use the app normally, but you won’t get any matches or messages.

You’ll need to create your new Tinder account with a different phone number and Facebook, unless you wait longer than the 3-month data-retention period.

Any remaining time on your paid subscription to Tinder Plus or Tinder Gold will be lost.

How do I delete my account? 

For security purposes, if you want to delete your account, you’ll need to do it directly on the app. Please note that you'll permanently lose your matches, messages and other information associated with your account.

1. If you deleted the app, download the app again

2. Tap the profile icon at the top of the main screen

3. Go to Settings

4. Scroll down and select Delete Account. You’ll see a message that says "Account successfully

deleted.”

Bear in mind, if you log in to Tinder again after deleting your account, a new account will be created.

Note: Deleting the Tinder app does not delete your account. If you subscribed to Tinder Plus or Tinder Gold using your Apple ID or Google Play Store ID, deleting the app and/or your account does not cancel your subscription. If you subscribed on Android or Tinder for web (Tinder.com) using your credit card, deleting your account will cancel your subscription automatically.
