As one of the most popular dating apps on the market, Tinder has a rather huge user base, all of whom are looking to hook up for one reason or another. However, aside from the open front end of the room, it would seem that the service also has what can be considered a VIP corner. It’s supposedly reserved only for the rich, the beautiful, or both.
Called Tinder Select, the dating company has reportedly been operating this exclusive feature for some time now, TechCrunch reports. According to what sources have told the publication, some of the clientele include supermodels, CEOs, and typical young trust fund individuals who have too much time and money on their hands.
If what these sources are saying is true, Select also counts a few celebrity names as customers. Considering just what it takes to get into the platform, however, it’s not that hard to believe that this might be the case.
Normally, in order to become a member of the exclusive service, Tinder would either need to invite the individual to join or an existing member would nominate said individual. So, it’s basically like one of those old, secret organizations where membership is incredibly limited.
There is another way for a regular Tinder member to get an upgrade in class and that is by achieving high rankings on the dating service, Fortune reports. Much of this relies on what’s called an Elo score, which ranks members based on how desirable other users find them. Obviously, this would require several things, including good looks, money, and a captivating profile picture.
Elo score is influenced by the number of times someone decided to swipe right once they get to a user’s profile and how much information clients have provided. Once the user gets enough of it, they stand a chance at being chosen.
