How's your experience after paying for Bumble?

I'm thinking of getting a premium for Bumble, currently I'm satisfied with the free offers, I'm not an avid user of sorts. I wanted to know if there's any massive leverage of having a premium. I'm a guy looking for a girl.

Premium is worth it. Optimises your top funnel. Bumble has 80-20 male:female so the premium profiles get higher visibility (verified via a woman friend’s account)

You will still need to fix the mid funnel (great profile pics - well groomed + some hobby or talking point). Profile - what you do in life + what activities you like. Activities are a good ‘first meet’ idea.

And bottom funnel - the chat post-match

  • just be natural and nice. No point being fake. If iIf it clicks, go for a first meet 👍 if not, your top of funnel will get you more matches over time 🕰️

Never thought I'd see a sales funnel review for Bumble / a dating app.

Especially "Bottom" funnel. Wow!

"Bottom funnel" is most important part of life. 😉

Nope nope nope. Bumble has gone the way of Tinder. Once you pay, your profile score takes a hit. Which makes you spiral into paying more over time.

Stick to the free version. Be more choosy with right swipes, that's all. Superlikes and profile boost don't work anyways. Most of the women also know by now that the first few profiles they see are from paid accounts, which makes them wary.

It used to be alright before to get their first level of premium. But now even that damages your profile rating.

I've been using it for years, was a Tinder user before. Sad to see them emulate Tinder but it is what it is.

Not worth it. Supply vs demand. I switched my account (I’m a guy) to a girl to see and I had over 250+ likes in a minute. I had my pictures, name, gender and what I was doing on my profile. Honestly, Reddit is a better place to meet people offf

How to meet people from reddit, this is the first time I'm hearing about this. Definitely need some context. @ShowyCation

There are certain subs! You can do some research and become active there, pitch yourself and meet people.

Compliments doesnt come with premium and thats a bummer. Avg guys like me need some wordplay to get a match

Very true, also there is no in-app purchase option for compliments like spotlight or super swipe. Or is there?

I have tried both Premium and free versions of it. In my opinion it's not worth it. The supply demand is way skewed on Bumble.
