Cancel Tinder subscription - by platform
Canceling your subscription does NOT delete your profile

Tinder keeps your profile active and visible after canceling a paid plan - you just revert to the free tier. If you want to stop appearing in the app entirely, you must separately delete your account: Settings → Delete Account. Cancel your subscription first, then delete the account.

Tinder subscription types

Tinder offers three paid tiers: Tinder Plus (unlimited likes, passport, rewind), Tinder Gold (everything in Plus, plus Likes You and Top Picks), and Tinder Platinum (everything in Gold, plus message before matching and priority likes). All three cancel through the same platform-based process above.

Frequently asked questions

Does Tinder offer refunds when you cancel?
Tinder does not offer prorated refunds. For App Store purchases, Apple occasionally refunds recent subscription charges - request at reportaproblem.apple.com. For Google Play, request within 48 hours of the charge.
If I delete my Tinder account, can I get it back?
Account deletion is permanent. All matches, messages, and profile data are deleted. If you're unsure, use the "Hide Profile" option (Settings → Discovery → uncheck "Show me on Tinder") rather than deleting - this makes you invisible without losing your data.
