How to Cancel Tinder Gold on Android

Tinder is a dating app, and if you are using it, you may probably hear about its different service plans. Tinder offers different service plans for its users, including Free, Plus, Gold, and Platinum. Users select their plans to use this app based on their different needs.

Among Tinder's various service plans, Tinder Gold is one of their premium subscription that lets you see who is swiped right on you. This premium plan also busts your account so more people can see your profile and lots more.

However, the Tinder Gold membership plan is a bit costly, which has $14.99 per month for a user having less than 30 years old. The membership plan increases to $29.99 for a user over 30 years old. It is more expensive than almost any other streaming service.

However, canceling the Tinder Gold subscription plan is very simple. But the exact steps and process may vary based on the platform you have signed up for.

What is Tinder Gold premium in the first place?

Tinder is a dating app offering different plans for users, including free use of their service. Tinder's Gold is one of their subscription options. Maybe they named it Gold because it has more perks (and cost) than Tinder Plus and less than Tinder Platinum membership.

Tinder Gold also has Top Picks, unlike Tinder Plus, where the app shows much kindness to your "most swipe-worthy matches." The Gold plan gives you one free boost in a month, making you a top profile in your area for 30 minutes, and free Super Likes, which lets users know you have liked them before they like you back.
