Dating on the Internet has taught us that you can make new friends almost getting up from the couch. It is enough to download the application, register, fill out the form and you will have a whole list of people in front of you. Then you just need to swipe to the left to place likes and write to a pleasant stranger. Unfortunately, the sanctions also affected this area: Badoo and Bumble hastily left the dating app market, leaving VK dating and other Teamo at the mercy, and Can’t subscribe on Tinder. If you do not want to use Russian analogues, use the application that you absolutely have in your phone. What – read on.

How to pay Tinder after sanctions

Due to sanctions, the dating app market has become noticeably poorer: Badoo, Bumble and Fruitz have already been removed from the App Store and Google Play. But Tinder has not left Russia: The app has too large a user base that the company is unwilling to sacrifice no matter what. According to research, in 2021 alone, the number of dating app users grew by a third.

Tinder continues to work in Russia, but with paid subscriptions

The company did not make statements about leaving Russia, but users were faced with inability to pay for a subscription Tinder Plus and Tinder Gold: MIR cards do not work in the application, and Mastercard and Visa have recently stopped working in Russia. In any case, a couple of ways pay Tinder in Russia there is.

  • Payment using a promotional code: you can buy it on Avito and other sites. There is a high risk of encountering scammers, so look at the seller’s reviews and rating.
  • Payment through friends in another country. Not everyone has them, and such an account can also be blocked at any time for violating community rules.
  • Get a bank card in another country. The method is very complicated and expensive (services take 10% of the subscription price and more), so you need to be prepared for additional costs.

How to replace Tinder

Remember, in the fall, I talked about how difficult it is to get acquainted on the Internet? One gets the feeling that the departure of Western dating apps from Russia is even beneficial – we will begin to communicate more on the streets, cafes, restaurants and other public places. This is unlikely to happen – dating is too difficult for many of us, so I can personally recommend two services: these are VK Dating and Teamo.

VK Dating, in my opinion, is a service for younger users

The first application is integrated into VKontakte and resembles Tinder and Badoo. You can use it for free, the audience is quite young and you can immediately write to the person you like. Cons: not possible view likes without paying a subscriptionthe interface slows down a little, and the geolocation is displayed incorrectly, as a result of which people from neighboring regions fall into the selection.

According to my observations, older people sit on Teamo

The Teamo app is more classic: whatever one may say, the service started working back in 2008. Therefore, it is more traditional. Users there are a little older, but the application gives more information and more accurately selects people for dating. In other words, it keeps up with the times. There is a subscription at reasonable prices and a trial period. The interface is convenient both in the mobile version, and in the desktop version, and even in the application.

How to get acquainted in Telegram

Not so long ago we with AndroidInsider.ru journalist Artem Rakhmatullin came to the conclusion that you can get acquainted in Telegram. This does not require channels and chats, everything is made much easier. The fact is that Telegram works on the principle of Tinder (or vice versa), detecting other users around you. See how it can be done.

You can even get acquainted in Telegram. You will also see chats that are nearby

  • Go to Telegram.
  • Select “Contacts” from the panel below.
  • Click “Find people nearby” and give the necessary access to geolocation.
  • Select “Show me here” so others can see you and write to you.

Under the username, the distance from you to them will be displayed. The function works for those who have given access to geolocation to the application. This way you can easily write to someone who is nearby. However, turn off the visibility of your avatar and phone number – this is done in the “Privacy” item. So you can keep hide number from spammers and other scammers. And if you get to know someone, then just turn on the display of the number. In case something doesn’t go according to plan, you can easily block user in telegram.
