MTCH
Revenue Acceleration/Inflection
Demand Weakening
  • Apptopia’s MPI shows a material improvement in Tinder’s year-over-year growth in Q4 2025, suggesting performance may exceed consensus expectations.
  • US Tinder downloads are down 4.2% YoY with sequential gains since Q2 2025; daily active users are down 7.5% YoY, but overall engagement is rising—average time per DAU up 5.1% YoY and +0.7% QoQ for female users.
  • Among Gen Z users (17–25), Tinder’s average time per DAU increased 13.9% YoY, indicating stronger engagement from younger cohorts.
  • Hinge faces headwinds: US downloads declined 4.1% YoY despite a 7.1% YoY rise in DAUs, with average time per DAU down 29.7% YoY for younger users and 25.4% YoY for male users.

Match Group spins out Overtone and details Tinder turnaround roadmap
MTCH
Management Change
Product Launch
New Projects/Investments
  • Match Group announced the spin-out of Overtone, an AI-first dating service led by Hinge founder Justin, and promoted Jackie to CEO of Hinge to ensure leadership continuity.
  • Under CEO Spencer since February, Tinder cut 13 % of its workforce, reorganized into autonomous product pods, and shifted focus to user outcomes over short-term monetization, adopting the Sparks metric (six-message back-and-forth) as its primary performance indicator.
  • The Face Check safety feature has reduced exposure to bad actors by 60 % and been rolled out across U.S. Tinder, with expected low-single-digit MAU headwinds deemed acceptable for long-term trust enhancement.
  • A spring product event will update progress on Tinder’s revitalization phase ahead of a projected 2026–27 resurgence, featuring tests like Project Aurora in Australia and plans to reinvest $90–100 million in App Store fee savings into product and marketing.

New Projects/Investments
Product Launch
  • Match Group has spun out Overtone, an AI-first dating service led by Hinge founder Justin, and elevated Jackie to CEO of Hinge; Match will remain the largest shareholder with an option to reacquire if Overtone succeeds.
  • Under new CEO Spencer, Tinder is shifting from lagging RPP metrics to the Sparks engagement metric (six-message exchanges) as a proxy for meaningful connections to drive retention, MAU growth, and word-of-mouth.
  • The Face Check verification feature has reduced exposure to bad actors by 60% in early markets and is now rolling out across Tinder in the U.S., with a low-single-digit MAU/revenue headwind deemed acceptable for long-term safety gains.
  • Project Aurora in Australia is testing new UI elements (Modes, Chemistry) alongside targeted marketing; insights will inform 2026 planning, supported by redeploying $90–100 million in app-store fee savings into product and customer acquisition.

MTCH
Management Change
Product Launch
  • Match announced the spin-out of Overtone, an AI-first dating service led by Hinge founder Justin, while elevating Hinge’s president Jackie to CEO to ensure a smooth leadership transition and enable startup agility with shared VC risk.
  • Under CEO Spencer since February, Tinder cut headcount by 13%, reorganized into autonomous product pods, and accelerated product releases from bi-weekly to weekly, shifting focus from lagging revenue metrics (RPP, payer growth) to the user-outcome “Sparks” metric—a six-way conversation proxy for meaningful connections.
  • The Face Check identity-verification feature, now rolled out across the US at Tinder, has reduced exposure to bad actors by 60%, with an expected low-single-digit revenue impact, and will be tested on other brands without material company-wide effect.
  • A dedicated spring event will showcase Project Aurora progress—augmenting Tinder with new Modes, the Chemistry AI feature, and targeted marketing—as part of the ongoing revitalization phase ahead of a 2026–27 resurgence.
  • Hinge’s “app designed to be deleted” model and balanced roadmap of AI-driven innovations, monetization, and geographic expansion remain key tailwinds, with further growth initiatives planned for 2026 and beyond.
