Online Dating Services Market Trends

Increased Smartphone Penetration has Boosted the Download of Online Dating Apps

• One of the major reasons for the increase in online dating apps is the rising penetration of smartphones and other computer devices. The usage of smartphones has increased in both developed and developing countries giving rise to boosting the demand for online dating services as most of the applications work in real-time based locations.
• The penetration of smartphones is growing the fastest in the Asia Pacific region, especially in countries like India and China, because more people across the region are getting cheap and easy internet connectivity with every passing day.
• Hence the usage of smartphones enables the users to have more chances to expand their geographic reach and will be able to interact with people across different locations. As per World Bank Group, the penetration of mobile phones is highest in Europe, followed by North America and Asia Pacific region.
• Furthermore, the rise in internet penetration in the major parts of the globe has led to an increased usage of the online dating apps in their smartphones. This factor provides immense opportunity for dating service players to develop apps that are convenient to use on smartphones.

North America to hold largest Market share

• North America is expected to have the largest market share over the forecasted period, with the United States being a primary contributor to the increase in market revenue. The presence of well-established online dating platforms such as Tinder, Bumble, Badoo, and others is one of the market's driving factors.

• The region's market has witnessed a rise in demand for the integration of advanced features, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, which includes the launch of Blind Date through virtual dating apps.
