What a free Match account does
A free account covers the basics of the app. The App Store listing says free members can "Create your profile and upload photos; Browse and receive daily match suggestions; Chat with recommended matches; Join virtual and in-person singles events." The help centre sets the limit on rating: free members can "Rate up to 50 profiles per day in your Recommended stack." Its messages article says "All of our free members are now able to chat with every match!", so a paid plan is not needed to send a message to a match.
Boosts and Super Likes can be bought without a subscription. The paid tiers add who Likes you, unlimited introductions, read receipts, advanced filters and, on the top tier, Anti-Ghosting; the full list by tier is in the Match review. Free alternatives are compared in what dating apps give you for free.
Paid tier prices in five countries
The US App Store lists four prices under the item named Match and gives no billing period for them. It states a period for three other items: Basic and Standard for 1 month, Bundle for 6 months. The help centre names four package lengths, 1, 3, 6 and 12 months, but no source ties them to the four Match prices, so none is called weekly or monthly here.

Match pricing by country
The table below takes the lowest listed price per storefront. India's App Store adds seven prices for Match, from INR 489 to INR 2649, again with no period. The UK is missing: the lookup did not find Match in the UK App Store (the page answered 404), so no UK price is recorded. That is a store check, not an availability list.

Tiers and packages in the help centre
The package options article (archive copy dated March 21, 2026) lists Bronze, Silver, Platinum and Diamond in packages of 1, 3, 6 or 12 months. Bronze has unlimited rated profiles, Likes and rewinds. Silver adds who Likes you, and Platinum adds unlimited introductions, a weekly Super Like, unlimited search, a monthly Boost, advanced filters and read receipts. Diamond adds filtering by dating intent on Discover and Anti-Ghosting.
The article says "Packages may change based on location" and "Offers may vary by location." It also says the subscription page shows the monthly or weekly cost but "your subscription is charged in full at the time of purchase." The tier names differ from the App Store item names, and the sources read do not say which item buys which tier. No source says prices differ by the member's age.
Add-ons sold separately
The App Store lists Top Spot in all six countries and a Boost in the US and Canada. Apple shows only the first 10 in-app purchases per storefront, so other items may exist: the US list has a Boost 1-Pack and no Top Spot 5-Pack, while Australia's has a Top Spot 5-Pack and no Boost.

Australia's App Store lists one Top Spot at AUD 4.99, a 5-pack at AUD 19.99 and a 10-pack at AUD 29.99. New Zealand's App Store lists one at NZD 4.99, a 5-pack at NZD 19.99 and a 10-pack at NZD 39.99. India's App Store lists one at INR 99 and a 10-pack at INR 599. What Top Spot does is not described in the sources read.
The help centre names other add-ons: Expert Picks, Private Mode, Priority Likes and Undercover, plus Super Like packs of 5, 12 or 30. No price for any of them appears in the sources read. It also says members who subscribed through the iOS app cannot buy most one-time features in the app and must use the desktop or mobile site with a card.
Free trial
The help centre's free trials article says free accounts often get promotional emails with trial offers. Redeeming one means choosing a paid package and giving payment details so the benefits continue after the trial. The length of a trial and the tiers it covers are not stated.
How to cancel a Match subscription
The cancelling article (archive copy dated September 14, 2025) says to turn off auto-renewal. For an Apple subscription, which covers every price on this page, that means the iPhone App Store, the profile icon, Subscriptions, then Cancel Subscription. Other subscriptions are managed from Manage Subscription on desktop. Add-ons such as Private Mode can be deactivated separately and then do not renew.
The package article states "We do not offer subscription pauses once a package is active," and cancelling a Platinum subscription does not allow a downgrade to Silver or Bronze. Our cancelling a subscription covers the steps across apps, and deleting an account covers the other half.
Refunds
The refund policy article says "generally our subscriptions are non-refundable," and points to section 8d of the Terms of Use for the full policy. One-time features such as Boost carry a non-refundable upfront fee, and purchases made through Apple are managed and refunded by Apple. The Terms of Use page itself could not be read.
Android and web prices
Google Play shows only a price range for in-app purchases, with no per-tier rows. The web subscribe page could not be read. Android and web prices for any tier are not covered here, and App Store rows cannot be assumed to match them. A head-to-head with another app is in Tinder vs Match.
