Match.com Has Been Around Since 1995. The Fact That We Still Need Dating Apps Proves They Haven't Solved the Problem.
Match is the parent company that owns Tinder, Hinge, OkCupid, and Plenty of Fish. They need you lonely on all four. Love On Deck is an independent PBC with one product and one mission.
What Match Does
Match Group is the largest dating company in the world. They own Tinder, Hinge, OkCupid, Plenty of Fish, Match.com, and dozens more. Their revenue was $3.2 billion in 2024. That money came from people who didn't find what they were looking for. When one company controls 60%+ of online dating, the incentive isn't to help you find someone. It's to keep you subscribing across their portfolio.
What We Do Differently
Love On Deck is independent. We're a Public Benefit Corporation with one product and one mission: help you find your person. We don't need you single across four apps to hit quarterly targets. We don't use algorithms. We don't paywall basic features. We built consent-based discovery because nobody with Match Group's incentives ever would.
Feature Comparison
The Verdict
Match Group has had 30 years to solve dating. They haven't, because solving it is bad for business. Love On Deck is built by people who actually want you to find your person.
