How to Cancel Tinder — Step-by-Step Guide (2026)

Deleting Tinder does NOT cancel your subscription — you'll keep getting charged. You must cancel through Apple or Google's subscription settings. Here's exactly how.

Official account or cancellation path Tinder

Do NOT just delete the app

Uninstalling Tinder does not stop billing. Your subscription is managed by Apple App Store or Google Play, not the app itself.

This is the #1 mistake people make. They delete the app and continue being charged for months.

Cancel through your app store

iPhone: Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions → Tinder → Cancel. Android: Google Play Store → Menu → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions → Tinder → Cancel.

Confirm cancellation

Tap "Confirm" or "Cancel Subscription". Your premium features (unlimited likes, Super Likes, Passport, etc.) remain active until the billing period ends.

Already charged? Keep the receipt and the cancellation confirmation. They are the useful part of a refund request.

Optionally delete your profile

If you want to remove your profile entirely: Open Tinder → Settings → Delete Account. This is separate from canceling the subscription.

You can cancel the subscription but keep your profile active on the free tier if you want.

⚠️ Watch out

✓ Refund may be possible

Refunds must go through Apple (reportaproblem.apple.com) or Google Play. Tinder doesn't process refunds directly. Request within a few days of charge for best results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I still be charged if I delete the Tinder app?
YES. Deleting the app does not stop your subscription. You must cancel through Apple Settings or Google Play to stop being charged.
Can I get a refund from Tinder?
Request refunds through Apple (reportaproblem.apple.com) or Google Play. Tinder itself rarely offers direct refunds. Act within a few days of the charge for best results.
What's the difference between canceling and deleting my account?
Canceling stops payment but keeps your profile. Deleting your account removes your profile, matches, and messages permanently. You can do either or both.
Can I use Tinder for free?
Yes. Free Tinder gives you limited right swipes per day, no Super Likes or Boosts, and no Passport feature. Basic matching still works.
