Tinder Select is the invite only, VIP version of the dating app – used by super models, CEOs and celebrities.
Those who are invited to join Tinder Select can then nominate others – but those nominated singletons can’t suggest other users for memberships.
One Tinder Select user said the dating app is “for celebrities and people who do really well on Tinder.”
It’s unclear how Tinder decides who joins Tinder Select – but it’s believed to be based on the Tinder Elo score, according to TechCrunch.
This is an an algorithmic rating system that is used across all of the dating app and is based on “thousands and thousands”.
TechCrunch also obtained pictures of Tinder Select, which has a pared-down and more minimalistic design compared to the regular version.
Tinder Select members can switch back and forth between the two version.
The logo for the VIP app featured a gradient navy blue ‘S’ at the top of the app where the normal Tinder flame is usually found.
The app is only in its infancy, with it believed to have been around for six months.
It may be that Tinder does not have any immediate plans to announce the service – keeping it as an exclusive, secretive dating app for VIP users.
