Tinder Alternative That's Free to Join — Meet Datezy

Datezy is the UK dating app that's free to join — swipe, match, chat and use every filter without paying a penny. Prefer to go further? Datezy Gold unlocks unlimited likes and seeing exactly who's liked you for one simple price from £10 a month — no maze of tiers, boosts and add-ons. Better matching by values and star sign, genuinely inclusive, and video-selfie verified.

Tinder is the world's biggest swipe-based dating app — fast, casual, and backed by an enormous global user base, so there's almost always someone to swipe on. It's a slick, well-known way to meet people. But many of its strongest features increasingly sit behind paid premium tiers, and the experience leans heavily casual, which doesn't suit everyone looking for something with a bit more intention.

Why switch to Datezy

Datezy keeps the essentials free for everyone: build a profile, swipe, match, chat, use every filter and send up to 25 likes a day. When you want unlimited likes and to see who's already liked you, Datezy Gold is one honest plan from £10/month — not a confusing stack of premium tiers. Our "Cosmic Match" blends star-sign compatibility with shared values, interests and proximity, profiles are video-selfie verified, and it's genuinely inclusive with 20 genders and 14 orientations.
