About Coffee Meets Bagel

Coffee Meets Bagel takes a slow-dating approach: instead of an endless swipe feed, it sends you a small number of curated matches (Bagels) each day at noon. This encourages more thoughtful engagement rather than rapid-fire swiping. Matches expire after a week, creating gentle urgency without pressure. The app uses a network-based algorithm that prioritises friends-of-friends. It's best suited to people who are serious about dating but don't want to spend hours scrolling. Premium features include activity reports and read receipts.

About Match.com

Match.com has been helping singles find love since 1995, making it one of the longest-running online dating services. The platform is geared toward people seeking serious, long-term relationships. It offers detailed profiles, compatibility matching, and a variety of communication tools including messaging, winks, and video dates. Match also offers in-person events and a 6-month guarantee — if you don't find someone, you get another 6 months free.
