Looking for new traffic sources? Looks like it\u2019s a match made in heaven. This article will discuss Tinder and how to use it in your advertising strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Tinder?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Everyone today has heard of Tinder at least once. It’s not a surprise, after all, Tinder has 75 million<\/strong><\/a> active users monthly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In short, it’s an online dating app famous for its swipe-and-match feature. If you\u2019re interested in someone \u2014 swipe right, if not \u2014 swipe left. When both of you swipe right, the app opens a chat where you can talk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tinder’s goal is to help people find love, a buddy to Netflix&Chill, and new people to talk to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Should You Advertise on Tinder?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First of all, Tinder has a massive reach<\/strong>. It\u2019s available in 190 countries<\/strong><\/a> and over 40 languages. Using this traffic source, you can attract new audiences to your offer and generate more leads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another reason is the clear targeting<\/strong>. The average Tinder users are Millennials and GenZ-ers \u2014 mostly men \u2014 looking for a relationship. They are interested in dating advice and anything that could help them seem cool to a potential love interest. If that\u2019s the audience you\u2019re targeting, Tinder is your choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which Offers Are Right for Tinder?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On average, users spend 35 minutes<\/strong><\/a> swiping left and right, making Tinder an appealing platform for advertising. But, not all offers are suitable for that. If you\u2019re not sure whether to promote your offer on Tinder or not, answer the following questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Who is this offer for?<\/strong> Identify your target audience and determine if they are active Tinder users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Is your offer relevant to Tinder users?<\/strong> Ensure that your offer aligns with interests in dating, social activities, events, fashion, beauty, and lifestyle, as these generally perform well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Does your offer align with Tinder guidelines?<\/strong> Although Tinder is adults only, some adult-focused offers aren\u2019t allowed there. Check the guidelines<\/strong><\/a> before launching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Is your offer optimized for mobile?<\/strong> Keep in mind that Tinder is a mobile app. If your offer is strictly for desktop users, you shouldn’t advertise there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Is it profitable to promote this offer on Tinder?<\/strong> Compare the cost of advertising on Tinder with other platforms. Estimate potential ROI and see if the dating app is a good fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do Tinder Ads Work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Now that you know Tinder is your traffic source of choice, let\u2019s talk about ads. Tinder offers several ad formats:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Native Display Ads<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Static banners that users see between the matches. They usually feature eye-catching titles and interactive CTAs, like \u201cSwipe right to read more.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Native Video Ads<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Auto-play videos that people see in discovery mode. Clicking on them takes users to the product website or landing page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Branded Profile Card<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

This format lets brands create profiles similar to those of typical users. If users swipe this profile right, they receive a custom message with a CTA in their inbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Polls<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

This interactive banner allows users to take a quiz while swiping. After completion, they can share their results on social media, encouraging others to take it too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What sets Tinder ads apart is their engagement potential<\/strong>. All formats encourage users to take action \u2014 using this creatively and strategically can lead to increased leads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Launch Tinder Ads?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tinder doesn\u2019t have a platform of its own for launching ads. For that, you\u2019ll need to use other advertising platforms: Google, Facebook, or other ad networks. Let\u2019s focus on the first two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tinder Ads via Google Ads<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Step 1<\/strong>: Go to the Google Ads<\/strong><\/a> website and create an account by clicking \u201cStart Now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2<\/strong>: On the Google Ads dashboard, click \u201cCreate\u201d to make a new ad campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3<\/strong>: Fill in all the important information about your ad: objective, campaign type (choose \u201cdisplay\u201d), website URL, location, and budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4<\/strong>: Go to the \u201cTargeting\u201d section and click \u201cPlacement.\u201d There you\u2019ll see a table of places to show your ads. Type \u201cTinder<\/em>\u201d in the search bar and click \u201cApp.\u201d There, you\u2019ll see different app options, including Tinder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4<\/strong>: Upload your creatives and launch your Tinder ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tinder Ads via Facebook<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Step 1<\/strong>: Create a Business Account<\/strong><\/a> on Facebook; otherwise, you won\u2019t be able to launch ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2<\/strong>: On the Facebook Ads Manager dashboard, click the \u201c+Create\u201d button to create a new campaign. Select your advertising objective from the list and continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3<\/strong>: Go to \u201cNew Traffic Ad Set\u201d and fill in all the necessary information about your ad, including conversion location, budget, audience, etc. The last step on this page is \u201cPlacement\u201d. Here, select \u201cManual placements\u201d and choose \u201cAudience Network\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Audience Network<\/strong> is the platform that will deliver your ad to Tinder. The app is included in Facebook\u2019s \u201cdating apps\u201d category. Finish setting up the campaign and send it for approval, After that, your ads will be running on Tinder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tinder Creatives: Real-Life Cases<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tinder ads heavily rely on creativity. Your banners must be eye-catching<\/strong> and simple<\/strong> with clear and easy-to-understand CTAs. This is because Tinder’s audience is younger generations that are more skeptical of ads, especially those that seem too sales-focused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s look at real-world examples of Tinder ad campaigns to inspire and enhance your ad creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultimate Smile on First Date with Crest<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Crest<\/strong>, an American oral hygiene brand, cleverly targeted the fears of singles: looking bad on a first date. Their ad encouraged people to use Crest products to impress their Tinder date with a perfect smile. Though the banner seems simple, it highlights CTA effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Key takeaway<\/strong>: The campaign looks simple and resonates well with Tinder\u2019s audience, addressing their fear of rejection. When launching your campaign, adapt it to the audience and make it dating-themed, showing your product value for finding love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Atlanta Hawks\u2019s Swipe Right Night<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The American basketball team, Atlanta Hawks<\/strong>, hosted Swipe Right Night, inviting fans to swipe right for a chance to access a special \u201cLove Lounge\u201d filled with Tinder users looking to meet other singles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Key takeaway<\/strong>: Although basketball and dating might not seem related, the Hawks targeted users’ desire for connection, offering a venue for real-life interactions. Adapt your offers to resonate with users\u2019 feelings and demonstrate how your product can help them in love and dating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Launch Tinder Ads and Track Performance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Knowing how to launch campaigns and studying cases is great, but it\u2019s not a guarantee of success. Trends come and go \u2014 what worked before may not be effective today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, how can you ensure your ads generate leads? By analyzing <\/strong>and testing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you are ready to launch, add all your ad links to a tracking tool. This will give you valuable insights into clicks, budget performance, and conversion rates, allowing you to optimize your ads and enhance ROI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take Keitaro Tracker<\/a>, for example. It offers comprehensive reports with over 30 metrics, A\/B testing features, a landing page builder, and more than 500 ready-made CPA and advertising templates.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
