How Much Do Super Likes Cost?

There is no one price, because the price changes with the app, the size of the pack and the plan you are on. Tinder sells Super Likes in packages, Bumble sells the same thing under the name SuperSwipe, and Hinge sells Roses. Each one shows its own price inside the app, and the biggest packs generally cost less per like.

The idea is the same everywhere: a signal that is stronger than an ordinary like.

Bumble is the most open about this. It says prices vary by tier, duration and pack size, and that you can see them in the app on the Pay plan tab. It also says SuperSwipes are sold as single-use consumables in different quantities, and that bigger packs and longer plans generally cost less per unit.

So the cheapest way to buy is rarely the smallest purchase. It is also easy to overbuy, because a lower price per unit encourages you to take a pack larger than you will ever use.

Check what you already have before you pay for more.

On Tinder, Gold and Platinum subscribers get free weekly Super Likes. On Bumble, Boost and Premium+ include a weekly number of SuperSwipes, and Premium+ includes more. On Hinge, every member gets one free Rose a week.

If you are already paying for a tier, the weekly allowance may cover everything you would spend on single packs.

Hinge's Rose is the stronger-than-a-like signal on that app. Extra Roses can be bought, and a Rose you bought does not expire until you use it. The free weekly one does not stack up, so you lose it if you skip a week.

That difference means the free Rose is a use-it-or-lose-it item, and a bought Rose is a thing you can keep for the right woman.

The price matters less than whether you use it on the right woman. A Super Like is a loud signal. a dating coach is wary of features that make you look more eager than the woman is, because they set the frame with her a step above you before she has said a word. That is his reason for keeping them rare.

The honest case for spending is narrow. A stronger signal helps when there is something specific about her that you can name, and when your photos and first message hold up once she looks. It does not help when your first photo is weak, because it only brings the verdict forward.

A sensible plan for most men is to use the free weekly allowance and not buy packs at all. If you do buy, buy for one woman you are really interested in, and do not stock up.

Prices move by country, by plan and over time. Open the buying screen in your own app before you decide, and compare the per-unit cost across pack sizes instead of reading a number from a website. The figure in your app is the only one that counts for you.
